Melanoma transplants in “green” mice: Fluorescent cells in tumors are not equivalent to host-derived cells
Background: To examine the usefulness of green fluorescent protein (GFP) mice for studying the interactions between normal cells and tumor cells in a host, we used a melanoma model in such “green” mice [C57BL/6-Tg(CAG-EGFP)1Osb mice].
