      DescriptionTS/A Mouse Mammary Adenocarcinoma Cell Line
      OverviewThe TS/A cell line was isolated from a mammary adenocarcinoma that arose spontaneously in a BALB/c female mouse (1). TS/A is a highly metastatic mouse mammary adenocarcinoma cell line exhibiting a marked degree of morphological heterogeneity in culture, with a range of differentiated cell types from epithelial-like to fibroblast-like (1). TS/A cells express estrogen receptor and colony-stimulating factor and are negative for the adhesion protein ICAM-1 (2,3).

      The TS/A cell line is a well-characterized and highly published model for tumor metastasis and heterogeneity and is a popular tool for studies of immunological gene therapy (4,5). It may also be used as a syngeneic mouse model of breast cancer. The main biological features of the TS/A model system have recently been reviewed, including in depth discussion of tumor–host interactions and experimental gene therapy (De Giovanni, Carla, et al. "Bioprofiling TS/A Murine Mammary Cancer for a Functional Precision Experimental Model." Cancers 11.12 (2019): 1889).

      Background InformationMetastasizing (stage IV) breast cancers have the lowest survival rate among all stages of breast cancer. Metastases may take on a range of morphologies in their new locations, complicating diagnosis and decisions on courses of treatment. Tumor cell lines that mimic the in vivo behavior of metastasizing cancers are thus critical tools in breast cancer research.
