Co-transplantation of human hematopoietic stem cells and human breast cancer cells in NSG mice
7 May 2014
Abstract excerpt
Humanized tumor mice (HTM) were generated by the co-transplantation of human hematopoietic stem cells and human breast cancer cells overexpressing HER2 into neonatal NOD-scid IL2Rγ(null) (NSG) mice.
