Product description: The tumourigenic and metastatic CMT 64 murine cell line is an in vivo mouse tumourigenesis system to study the growth characteristics and metastasis of mouse tumour lines (homoplastic with stable CMT 167 line); it demonstrates stable growth characteristics and morphology in culture and in lung metastasis induced after subcutaneous inoculation of mice. This demonstrates its consistency and reliability as a model for studying lung carcinoma progression and metastasis.
Alternate name: CMT-64; CMT.64; CMT64; C57 Mouse Tumor 64
Gender: Female
Production details: CMT 64 was isolated from a primary alveogenic lung carcinoma tumour in a C57BL/1CRF mouse. The cell line maintained a stable morphology and growth rate comparable to that observed in the original tumour tissue in vitro. Notably, CMT 64 retained similar characteristics in both primary tumour growth and in lung metastases following subcutaneous inoculation in mice.
