Clinical features of the orthotopic, immunocompetent GBM models.
Murine GBM cell line | Recapitulates features of human GBM | Response to αPD1 | Mutation status | Reference |
005GSCa | Stem-cell rich, invasive | Non-responder | IDH-wildtype | 73,82,83 |
CT2Aa | Low mutational load | Non-responder | IDH-wildtype | 27,84 |
GL261-MGHa | Highly vascularized, necrotic, invasive | Non-responder | IDH-wildtype | 26,27,63,64,84 |
aOrthotopic intracranial implantation through cranial window/pocket using stereotactic devise (10, 5, and 7.5 × 104 cells for GL261-MGH, CT2A, and G005 tumors, respectively). Tumor growth is monitored by ultrasound imaging or blood Gluc assay63.
