Lewis lung carcinoma is a hypermutated Kras/Nras–mutant cancer with extensive regional mutation clusters in its genome. A tumor that spontaneously developed as an epidermoid carcinoma in the lung of a C57BL mouse. It was discovered in 1951 by Dr. Margaret Lewis of the Wistar Institute and became one of the first transplantable tumors. [1]
The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) is a project to catalogue the genomic alterations responsible for cancer using genome sequencing and bioinformatics. [1] [2] The overarching goal was to apply high-throughput genome analysis techniques to improve the ability to diagnose, treat, and prevent cancer through a better understanding of the genetic basis of the disease.
Precision-cut Lung Slices (PCLS) have been instrumental in studying the body's innate responses to viral and, to a lesser extent, bacterial challenges. This system has shed light on which cells become infected within the intact lung, offering insights distinct from in vitro air-liquid interface cultures. [25]

The NOD-SCID mouse is considered more immunodeficient than the nude mouse, and therefore is more commonly used for PDX models because the NOD-SCID mouse does not produce natural killer cells. [ 3 ] When human tumors are resected, necrotic tissues are removed and the tumor can be mechanically sectioned into smaller fragments, chemically digested ...
The specific function of this protein has not been determined but it has been proposed as a marker of lung injury. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified. [7] This protein has been found to have functions in lung alveolar cells, kidney podocytes, and lymphatic endothelial cells.
In 2016 a new knock-in mouse was generated on the C57BL/6 background to be a perfect congenic strain. [23] This mouse, dubbed the CD45.1STEM mouse, differs from the C57BL/6 strain by a single base pair resulting in a single amino acid change that confers the difference in reactivity by the anti-CD45.1 and anti-CD45.2 antibodies.
The Allen Mouse Brain Atlas confirm the gene's expression in lung, intestine, and gonad tissue. MROH9 expression specifically correlates with a cluster that specializes in cilium organization and cilia cells. The Allen Mouse Brain Atlas also shows that the gene shows significant levels of expression in the olfactory bulb region of the brain ...
