Antineo : Lung Carcinoma tumour model – NCI-H292
-
NCI-H292 cells
Human NCI-H292 cells were isolated from the lung of a patient with lung Lung mucoepidermoid
carcinoma.
-
Tumour growth in vivo
The cells were collected from a tissue culture flask and injected subcutaneously in the right flank of SCID-CB17 mice. The resulting tumours were monitored by measuring two diameters with calipers, and extrapolating the volume to a sphere.
The mice bearing NCI-H292 tumours can be treated by intra-peritoneal, intra-venous, intratumoral or subcutaneous injection of the compounds. Per os administration is also possible.
