Therefore, the ability to study cancer cells in the context of a matrix that is physiologically more relevant and to understand how the ECM affects cancer progression has been understudied. To address this, I developed an ex-vivo 3D system, provided by intact wild type (WT) and colon cancer susceptible decellularized mouse colons (DMC), to support the growth of human cancer cells. DMC are free of viable cells but still contain extracellular matrix proteins including subsets of collagens. Stiffness, an important mechanical property, is also maintained in DMCs. Importantly, I observed that the DMC is permissive for cell proliferation and differentiation of a human colon cancer cell line (HT-29). Notably, the ability of cells in the WT DMC to differentiate was also greater when compared to Matrigel TM, an extracellular matrix extract from a mouse tumor cell line. Additionally, I observed using invasion assays that DMC obtained from polyps from a colon cancer susceptible mouse model facilitated increased cell migration/invasion of colorectal cancer cells and immortalized non-tumor colonic epithelial cells compared to DMC from WT mice. Finally, using mass spectrometry, I identified extracellular matrix proteins that are more abundant in DMC from a colorectal cancer mouse model compared to age and sex-matched WT mice. I propose that these abundantly expressed proteins in the tumor microenvironment are potentially involved in colorectal cancer progression.Item Prevention of colon cancers and polyps: is it time to give aspirin yet?(1996-10-31) Luk, Gordon D.Item [Southwestern News](1999-09-16) Stieglitz, HeatherItem [Southwestern News](2002-05-17) Carter, Wayne; Morrison, SusanItem [Southwestern News](1998-10-09) Steeves, Susan A.Item Ulcerative colitis and colon cancer: risks, detection, and prevention(1982-08-12) Feldman, MarkItem [UT Southwestern Medical Center News](2011-07-18) Bolles, DebbieItem [UT Southwestern Medical Center News](2013-08-05) Lyda, Alex
