“…They demonstrate a faithful recapitulation of human GBM features such as intratumoral heterogeneity, specific molecular profile, diffuse invasion into the brain, endovascular proliferation, and pseudopalisading necrosis (5)(6)(7)(8). While a plethora of protocols exists in the literature for the establishment of a PDX, they are not always successful, and the engraftment success rate often depends on the experience of the lab, varying from 10% to 60% on average (4,(8)(9)(10)(11). A typical protocol includes the obtaining of single-cell suspension from the tumor, maintaining the cells in a culture for a short time (1-2 weeks), intracranial implantation into immunodeficient mice, and passaging in mice to have a stable growth.…”
