\n\t\tTumor and stromal chemoresistance\n\t<\/h1>\n

\n\t\tSummary\n\t<\/h3>\n\t

Our group addresses different aspects of chemoresistance using advanced animal models (orthoxenografts) and non-tumour cell models, such as cancer-associated fibroblasts, to study mechanisms of therapeutic resistance in solid and hematological tumors.<\/p>\n

Orthoxenografts\u00ae are experimental mouse models in which a small piece of human tumour is implanted (implantation from one spices to another, xenograft) in the same organ of origin (orthotopically). Orthoxenografts\u00ae are characterised by reproducing the histological, genetic and molecular characteristics of the original primary tumour, representing an excellent scientific tool for predicting patient response to chemotherapy treatment, and providing treatment alternatives based on scientific evidence.<\/p>\n
