Product Description

When injected into BALB/c mice, 4T1 spontaneously produces highly metastatic tumors that can metastasize to the lung, liver, lymph nodes and brain while the primary tumor is growing in situ.The primary tumor does not have to be removed to induce metastatic growth.Because 4T1 is resistant to 6-thioquanine, micro-metastatic cells(as few as 1) can be detected in many distant site organs with better accuracy that most tumor models. There is no need to count nodules or weight target organs.

Information

ApplicationThe tumor growth and metastatic spread of 4T1 cells in BALB/c mice very closely mimic human breast cancer. This tumor is an animal model for stage IV human breast cancer. 4T1-induced tumors can be used as a post-operative model as well as a non-surgical m

Misc Information

SubculturingRemove and discard culture medium. Briefly rinse the cell layer with DPBS solution to remove all traces of serum that contains trypsin inhibitor. Add 1.0 to 2.0 mL of Trypsin-EDTA solution to flask and observe cells under an inverted microscope until cell layer is dispersed (usually within 2 to 3 minutes). Cells that are difficult to detach may be placed at 37°C to facilitate dispersal. Add 4.0 to 6.0 mL of complete growth medium and aspirate cells by gently pipetting. Add appropriate aliquots of the cell suspension to new culture vessels.
