- Description: CMT 167 is a highly metastatic murine alveogenic lung carcinoma cell line, derived from the parental CMT 64 line. Developed in 1984 at the Cancer Research UK London Research Institute (Lincoln's Inn Fields), CMT 167 was established through subcloning and in vivo selection for enhanced metastatic potential from pooled lung metastases of CMT 64. Compared to CMT 64, CMT 167 exhibits a markedly higher propensity for metastasis and is a useful tool to investigate the mechanisms and origins of metastatic progression in lung cancer.
- Production details: CMT 167 is a subclone of the CMT 64 alveogenic lung carcinoma cell line, originally derived from a primary tumour in a C57BL/1CRF mouse. To generate CMT 167, adult female C57B/T mice (aged 4–6 months) were subcutaneously injected in the lower right flank using a Bashford needle. The injected material consisted of pooled tumour fragments taken from various non-necrotic regions of CMT 64-derived tumours. Following tumour development, cells were harvested from resulting lung metastases. Epithelial outgrowths from these metastatic sites were cultured and selectively expanded based on their high metastatic potential. Through this process of subcloning and in vivo screening, the CMT 167 cell line was established as a more aggressively metastatic variant of CMT 64.
