Abstract
Patient-derived xenografts represent the gold standard in pre-clinical research models. The chicken embryo chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) is used in functional studies for studying biological processes such as blood vessel development and embryogenesis, biocompatible material testing, and more recently three-dimensional patient-derived xenograft (PDX) tumor modeling. We describe here a detailed method used to readily engraft established mouse PDX and primary patient tumor specimens on the CAM with as little as 25 mg of tissue per embryonated egg.Entities:
