TY - JOUR TI - The use of the orthotopic model to validate antivascular therapies for cancer AU - Loi, Monica AU - Di Paolo, Daniela AU - Becherini, Pamela AU - Zorzoli, Alessia AU - Perri, Patrizia AU - Carosio, Roberta AU - Cilli, Michele AU - Ribatti, Domenico AU - Brignole, Chiara AU - Pagnan, Gabriella AU - Ponzoni, Mirco AU - Pastorino, Fabio T2 - The International Journal of Developmental Biology AB - The orthotopic model reproduces aspects of the tumour microenvironment and emulates a number of important biological features of cancer progression, angiogenesis, metastasis and resistance. Due to its parallels with human cancer, the model can be used to evaluate therapeutic responses to various therapies. This review outlines the importance of using the orthotopic implantation of tumour cells in mice models for evaluating the effectiveness of antivascular therapies.
