Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND/AIM: To examine the dynamics of circulating tumour cells (CTCs) in pancreatic cancer (PC), new mouse CTC models from human PC xenografts were developed. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Orthotopic (pancreas) and heterotopic (subcutaneous) transplantation models using GFP-tagged SUIT-2 PC cells were prepared. Using a cytology-based CTC detection platform, CTCs and metastasis were compared. RESULTS: The two types...
