Novel Mouse Cell Lines and In Vivo Models for Human High-Grade Neuroendocrine Lung Carcinoma, Small Cell Lung Carcinoma (SCLC), and Large Cell Neuroendocrine Carcinoma (LCNEC).

ABSTRACT: There is a clear need to expand the toolkit of adequate mouse models and cell lines available for preclinical studies of high-grade neuroendocrine lung carcinoma (small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC) and large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC)). SCLC and LCNEC are two highly aggressive tumor types with dismal prognoses and few therapeutic options. Currently, there is an extreme paucity of material, particularly in the case of LCNEC. Given the lack of murine cell lines and transplant models of LCNEC, the need is imperative. In this study, we generated and examined new models of LCNEC and SCLC transplantable cell lines derived from our previously developed primary mouse LCNEC and SCLC tumors. RNA-seq analysis demonstrated that our cell lines and syngeneic tumors maintained the transcriptome
