N2 - Purpose to study the tumor-forming activity of wild-type MC F-7 cells carrying a full set of porins (VDAC 1, VDAC 2, VDAC 3), as well as their genetically modified cells, from which one of the isoforms was removed (MC F-7 VDAC 1 KO, MC F-7 VDAC 2 KO, MC F -7 VDAC 3 KO). Material and Methods. The study was aimed at establishing of an animal model of orthotopic tumors in the mammary gland of immunodeficient BAL B/c nude mice by implanting a suspension of human breast cancer cells (MC F-7) and derivatives of these cells generated by targeted knockout of one of the selected mitochondrial porin isoforms (VDAC 1, VDAC 2 or VDAC 3). Suspensions of either wild-type MC F-7 cell lines containing all three porin isoforms (VDAC 1, VDAC 2 and VDAC 3) or their VDAC -deficient derivatives (MC F-7 VDAC 1 KO, MC F-7 VDAC 2 KO and MC F-7 VDAC 3 KO) were injected into mammary fat pads of BAL B/c nude mice at a dose of 4x106 cells per injection. A pathomorphological analysis of the place of implantation of tumor cells, the tumor itself, as well as the organs of the abdominal and thoracic cavity was carried out. Results. The study shows the feasibility of successful creation of orthotopic tumors in the adipose tissue of immunodeficient BAL B/c nude mice with MC F-7 human breast cancer epithelial cells containing a complete set of mitochondrial porin isoforms and their VDAC -deficient derivatives. The tumor-forming activity of the implanted cells was shown to correlate with their cytotoxic effect on the internal organs of animals. Pathological analysis showed that all implanted cell cultures, such as MC F-7 WT, MC F-7 VDAC 2 KO and MC F-7 VDAC 3 KO, except for MC F-7 VDAC 1 KO cells, which did not form tumors, caused pathological changes in the lungs, liver and spleen, as well as the presence of other tumor-like lesions. Conclusion. The data obtained will be used to optimize the injection volume and cell number, as well as to refine the dynamics of tumor growth, suitable for studying the effect of anticancer drugs on tumors formed by human breast cancer cells (MC F-7) and its genetically modified VDAC -deficient derivatives.
