Abstract
The growing acceptance that cancer encompasses a disparate group of diseases in which malignant cells tend to retain certain unique characteristics of the tissue or organ of their origin has been paralleled by an increasing interest in experimental animal model systems that not only are representative of human malignancies histologically, but also originate in the organ or tissues, and have the growth and metastasizing characteristics of the particular neoplastic disease for which they serve as a model.
