Derivation of resident macrophages and construction of tumor microenvironment in Flk-1-knockout chimeric mice produced via blastocyst complementation

Abstract The tumor microenvironment (TME) is deeply involved in cancer progression and treatment resistance. Although humanized mouse models have been developed by transplanting human cells into immunodeficient mice, they fail to fully reconstitute the TME. Blastocyst complementation using Flk-1 (Ve...
