Background: Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapies are an important treatment for patients with advanced cancers; however, only a subset of patients with certain types of cancer achieve durable remission. Cancer vaccines are an attractive strategy to boost patient immune responses, but less is known about whether and how immunization can induce long-term tumor immune reprogramming and arrest cancer progression. We developed a clinically relevant genetic cancer mouse model in which hepatocytes sporadically undergo oncogenic transformation.

The adult mammalian heart has been demonstrated to be endowed with low but real turnover capacity, especially for cardiomyocytes, the key functional cell type. The source, however, of that turnover capacity remains controversial. In this regard, we have defined and characterized a resident multipotent cardiac mouse progenitor population, +DR (for + Damage-Responsive cells).

Obesity is an established risk and progression factor for triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), but preclinical studies to delineate the mechanisms underlying the obesity-TNBC link as well as strategies to break that link are constrained by the lack of tumor models syngeneic to obesity-prone mouse strains. C3(1)/SV40 T-antigen (C3-TAg) transgenic mice on an FVB genetic background develop tumors with molecular and pathologic features that closely resemble human TNBC, but FVB mice are resistant to diet-induced obesity (DIO). Herein, we sought to develop transplantable C3-TAg cell lines syngeneic to C57BL/6 mice, an inbred mouse strain that is sensitive to DIO.

Objective: To explore the mechanism of 3-methyladenine (3-MA) for alleviating early diabetic renal injury.
Methods: Mouse models of streptozotocin (STZ) -induced diabetes mellitus were randomized into model group and 3-MA treatment group for daily treatments with normal saline and 10 mg/kg 3-MA by gavage for 6 weeks, respectively. Body weight and fasting blood glucose of the mice were recorded every week.

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a cancer type that is thought to be influenced by human papillomaviruses (HPVs) and human polyomaviruses (HPyVs). In Egypt, CRC ranks as the 7th most common cancer, accounting for 3.47% of male cancers and 3% of female cancers.
