Cell Line-Derived Xenograft Model Development Service
The cell line-derived xenograft tumor (CDX) model is a tumor model constructed by transplanting an in vitro cultured xenogeneic (human-derived) tumor cell line into an immunodeficient mouse. Alfa Cytology provides customized CDX models for bladder cancer research.
Cell Line-Derived Xenograft (CDX) Models
CDX models involve the transplantation of bladder cancer cell lines into immunodeficient animals, typically mice. These cell lines are derived from human and possess specific genetic and molecular characteristics. CDX models offer several advantages in preclinical research, including ease of use, reproducibility, and scalability. By utilizing CDX models, we can investigate tumor biology, evaluate therapeutic efficacy, and elucidate underlying mechanisms of bladder cancer progression.

Our Services
Alfa Cytology, a leading preclinical contract research organization (CRO), offers a variety of customization services for cell line-derived xenograft mouse models to develop novel bladder cancer therapies.
|
|
| Through rigorous screening and characterization, we ensure the authenticity, stability and genetic fidelity of the selected cell lines. The cell lines mainly used to construct CDX models were 5637, 5637-luc, UMUC3, 786-o-luc, RT4, SW-780. |
Taking into account factors such as implantation efficiency, tumor growth kinetics, and compatibility with the selected cell line, we provide you with the most appropriate strain, such as nude mice, NOD SCID mice, or M-NSG mice, to ensure optimal tumor engraftment and growth. |
|
|
| We offer accurate and reproducible tumor cell implantation. Whether via subcutaneous or in situ (bladder), we carefully implant bladder cancer cells into mice to optimize tumor growth. |
Our regular monitoring of tumor growth using non-invasive imaging techniques such as bioluminescence or ultrasound allows for longitudinal assessment and accurate evaluation of therapeutic efficacy. |
Our Services Will Help You Achieve the Goals as Follows:
CDX models are increasingly being used to enable the following types of preclinical research for bladder cancer:
- Anti-cancer Drug Screening
