Histologic and molecular analysis of patient derived xenografts of high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma

Abstract Background Patient derived xenografts (PDX) are generated by transplanting the original patient’s tumor tissue into immune-deficient mice. Unlike xenograft models derived from cell lines, PDX models can better preserve the histopathology from the original patient and molecular pathways. Hig...
