Chemical Carcinogen (Dimethyl-benzanthracene) Induced Transplantable Cancer in Fanconi Anemia (Fanca-/-) Mice.
In Vivo 2023
BACKGROUND/AIM: Patients with radiation sensitive Fanconi anemia (FA) are presenting with cancers of the oral cavity, oropharynx, and other anatomic locations.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Animal models for cancer in FA mice used orthotopic tumors from wild type mice. We derived a cancer cell line from Fanca-/- mice by topical application of the chemical carcinogen dimethyl benzanthracene (DMBA).
RESULTS: A Fanca-/- mouse rhabdomyosarcoma was derived from a Fanca-/- (129/Sv) mouse. The in vitro clonogenic survival of the Fanca-/- clone 6 cancer cell line was consistent with the FA genotype. Transplanted tumors demonstrated hypoxic centers surrounded by senescent cells.
CONCLUSION: This Fanca-/- mouse syngeneic cancer should provide a valuable resource for discovery and development of new normal tissue radioprotectors for patients with FA and cancer.
