The TS/A cell line was established in 1983 from a spontaneous mammary tumor arisen in an inbred BALB/c female mouse. Its features (heterogeneity, low immunogenicity and metastatic ability) rendered the TS/A cell line suitable as a preclinical model for studies on tumor-host interactions and for gene therapy approaches. The integrated biological profile of TS/A resulting from the review of the literature could be a path towards the description of a precision experimental model of mammary cancer.
TS/A细胞系于1983年从一只近交系BALB/c雌性小鼠自发产生的乳腺肿瘤中建立。其特性(异质性、低免疫原性和转移能力)使TS/A细胞系适合作为肿瘤-宿主相互作用研究和基因治疗方法的临床前模型。通过文献综述得出的TS/A综合生物学概况可能是描述乳腺癌精确实验模型的一条途径。
