Background The development of multi-drug resistant (MDR) cancer is a significant challenge in the clinical treatment of recurrent disease. Hypoxia is an environmental selection pressure that contributes to the development of MDR. Many cancer cells, including MDR cells, resort to glycolysis for energy acquisition. This study aimed to explore the relationship between hypoxia, glycolysis, and MDR in a panel of human breast and ovarian cancer cells. A second aim of this study was to develop an orthotopic animal model of MDR breast cancer. Methods Nucleic and basal protein was extracted from a panel of human breast and ovarian cancer cells; …

Adult murine spleen is known to have a major role in the development of dendritic cell (DC) subsets, including conventional DC and plasmacytoid DC. In this lab, long-term cultures (LTCs) established from murine spleen support continuous production of novel dendritic-like cells, termed LTC-DC. An in vivo equivalent subset also exists in spleen, namely L-DC. As co-cultures using LTC-derived splenic stroma support the outgrowth of L-DC from spleen and bone marrow sources, it is likely that spleen represents an important niche for DC development. To investigate the appearance of L-DC during ontogeny, spleen was isolated from embryonic and neonatal mice of …
