## Abstract We have critically examined the nude mouse model for human retinoblastoma to determine whether or not characteristics found in the parent tumor are retained in the mouse. We have demonstrated that most tumors grown in the anterior chamber of the nude mouse maintain a similar karyotype,

## Abstract ## Background We describe an __in vitro__ tumour model for targeted radiotherapy and gene therapy that incorporates cell population heterogeneity. ## Materials and methods Transfectant mosaic spheroids (TMS) and transfected mosaic monolayers (TMM) are composed of two cell populations
Previous studies have demonstrated the feasibility of implantation of human blood cells or tissues in lethally irradiated mice or rats, radioprotected with SCID mouse bone marrow cells: The Trimera system. In the present study, we describe the development of a mouse Trimera model for human hepatitis
