Title: Novel model of triple-negative breast cancer produces viable circulating tumor cells and rapid lung metastasis for functional testing in vivo | ||

Abstract: Breast cancer metastases are the main reason for women´s highest cancer mortality. Even though tumor cell dissemination via circulating tumor cells (CTC) released from the primary site is a very ineffective process, distant metastases appear in 46% of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) patients corresponding to the disease aggressiveness. Laboratory models for functional testing which mimic the spread of metastatic cells are needed for efficient investigation of the underlying mechanisms and therapeutic intervention. Here, we describe novel isogenic variants LMC3 and CTC3 of human TNBC cell line MDA-MB-231 that were derived by repeated injection of tumor cells into the tail vein of immunodeficient mice and subsequent selection of metastatic cells from lung metastases. These variants have increased migration potential, altered expression profiles, and elevated tumorigenic potential. Moreover, cell line CTC3 readily produces metastases in the lungs and bone marrow and detectable viable circulating tumor cells in the blood. This model enables rapid and cost-efficient strategies for biomarker exploration and novel intervention approaches to limit the CTC presence in the blood and hence tumor dissemination. |
