Résumé
Brain metastases are the most common brain tumors in patients and are associated with poor prognosis. Investigating the colonization and outgrowth of brain metastases is challenging given the complexity of the organ, tissue sampling difficulty, and limited experimental models. To address this challenge, we employed a strategy to analyze the metastatic niche in established lesions, based on the release of a cell-penetrating mCherry tag from labeled tumor cells to neighboring niche cells, using different brain metastasis mouse models. We found that CD206+ macrophages were the most abundant cells taking up the mCherry label in established metastases.
