Abstract
Two human mammary carcinomas of postmenopausal women were successfully transplanted into nude mice. Both tumours were classified as epidermal-growth-factor-, oestradiol- and progesterone-receptor-negative and c-erbB2-protein-positive. Histological studies of the primary tumours (4000 and 4151) revealed ductal invasive mammary carcinomas. In the first passages the precondition for the growth of breast carcinoma 4000 were pretreatments of the nude mice with oestradiol and peanut oil before transplantation. The mammary carcinomas 4000 and 4151 described here are suitable for in vivo testing of antineoplastic substances and for biological studies.Entities:
