Characteristics of representative epithelial and non-epithelial patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models established with the NOD.Cg-Prkdcscid Il2rgtm1Sug/Jic mouse (NOG mouse). A: Tumors of epithelial cell origin. 3rd generation tissues from a case of lung squamous cell carcinoma with characteristic cancer pearls, and renal clear cell carcinoma with sarcomatous features. B: Tumors of non-epithelial cell origin. 3rd generation tissues from a case of embryonic rhabdomyosarcoma with poorly adhering, round-shaped cells and occasional racquet shaped or myofibroblast-like features, and gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) with an interlacing growth pattern of spindle cells.
