Title: Animal model for the fast identification of pharmaceutical active compounds in vivo
Inventor: BELIEN ANN TRUDO JOSEE
IPC: C12N5/10
Filed: 2004-03-03
Granted: 2009-12-10
Abstract: In a first aspect the present invention provides a tumor cell line stably transfected with an expression vector containing a reporter gene, preferably a fluorescent protein, operably linked to a promotor that also controls expression of a protein that is associated with tumor regression, stabilization of tumor growth or inhibition of metastatic growth, characterized in that said cell line is capable to form a tumor when implanted or injected into the non-human animal. Compared to the traditional in vivo models, the present invention differs in that the reporter gene is not constitutively expressed, but only after exposure to a test compound that results in the expression of a protein or enzyme associated with tumor regression, stabilization of tumor growth or inhibition of metastatic growth. Only when a compound to be tested got into circulation and infiltrated the tumor it may generate the reporter signal, provided it promotes the expression of a protein associated with tumor regression and the promoter of said protein is operably linked to the reporter gene.
