The Chick Embryo Chorioallantoic Membrane as an in vivo Model to Study Metastasis

[Abstract]  Metastasis is a complex process that includes several steps: neoplastic progression, angiogenesis, cell migration and invasion, intravasation into nearby blood vessels, survival in the circulatory system, extravasation followed by homing into distant tissues, the formation of micrometastases, and finally the growth into macroscopic secondary tumors. This complexity makes metastases difficult to investigate and quantify in animal models. The chick embryo is a unique in vivo model that overcomes many limitations for studying the metastatic process, due to the accessibility of the chorioallantoic membrane (CAM), a well-vascularized extra-embryonic tissue located under the eggshell, that is receptive to the xenografting of mammalian tumor cells, including human. Since the chick ... [摘要]  转移是一个复杂的过程,包括几个步骤:肿瘤进展,血管生成,细胞迁移和入侵,附近血管内渗,循环系统中的生存,外渗,然后归巢到远端组织,微转移的形成,最后生长宏观继发性肿瘤。这种复杂性使得转移瘤难以在动物模型中研究和量化。鸡胚是独特的体内模型,其克服了用于研究转移过程的许多限制,这是由于绒毛尿囊膜(CAM)的可接近性,所述绒毛尿囊膜是位于蛋壳下的良好血管化的胚胎外组织,其接受哺乳动物肿瘤细胞(包括人)的异种移植。由于鸡胚在此阶段是天然免疫缺陷的,所以CAM可以支持肿瘤细胞的植入,并且其中的生长可忠实地重现致癌过程的大多数特征,包括:生长,侵入,血管生成和远端组织的定居(Deryugina和Quigley,2008; Zijlstra等人,2002)。 CAM在癌细胞移植后5-7天内维持快速肿瘤形成。这个特征提供了用于快速研究转移性级联的灌注和定植步骤的独特实验模型。此外,使用定量PCR来检测物种特异性序列,例如Alu ,鸡胚CAM模型可用于监测和定量在远端组织中异种移植的异位肿瘤细胞的存在。因此,鸡胚模型已经证明是用于癌症研究的有价值的工具,特别是用于研究癌症转移中涉及的分子和途径,并分析转移性癌症对潜在疗法的反应(Herrero等人 。,2015; Casar 。,2014)。在这方面,使用快速和定量的自发转移鸡胚胎模型可以提供用于筛选抗癌剂的常规小鼠模型系统的替代方法。
