Abstract
Preclinical models mimicking spontaneous omental metastasis from ovarian cancer (OC) can benefit the study of anti-metastatic therapies for OC patients. Here, we present a protocol to establish a highly metastatic (HM) mouse model with omental tropism by in vivo selection. We describe the processes of implanting OC cells in the ovaries of mice and obtaining HM sublines from their omental metastases. HM cells can metastasize from the ovary to the omentum within 2 weeks. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Ying et al.1.
