    Comparison of ex vivo bioluminescence imaging, Alu-qPCR and histology for the quantification of spontaneous lung and bone metastases in subcutaneous xenograft mouse models

    Bioluminescence imaging (BLI) is a non-invasive state-of-the-art-method for longitudinal tracking of tumor cells in mice. The technique is commonly used to determine bone metastatic burden in vivo and also sui...

    The initial engraftment of tumor cells is critical for the future growth pattern: a mathematical study based on simulations and animal experiments

    Xenograft mouse tumor models are used to study mechanisms of tumor growth and metastasis formation and to investigate the efficacy of different therapeutic interventions. After injection the engrafted cells fo...
