Establishment of liver tumor cell lines from atherogenic and high fat diet fed hepatitis C virus transgenic mice

Abstract A syngeneic mouse model bearing a transplanted tumor is indispensable for the evaluation of the efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). However, few syngeneic mouse models of liver cancer are available. We established liver tumor cell lines (MHCF1 and MHCF5) from hepatitis C virus...
