Genome wide in vivo mouse screen data from studies to assess host regulation of metastatic colonisation

The process of metastasis is a multi-stage cascade with prior studies suggesting that the colonisation of the secondary site is the rate limiting step. This process involves contributions from the tumour cells and also non-tumour intrinsic factors such as the stroma and the haematopoietic system. In...

Sumario:The process of metastasis is a multi-stage cascade with prior studies suggesting that the colonisation of the secondary site is the rate limiting step. This process involves contributions from the tumour cells and also non-tumour intrinsic factors such as the stroma and the haematopoietic system. In this study, we present data from screening 810 genetically-modified mouse lines with the experimental metastasis assay where intravenous delivery of murine metastatic melanoma B16-F10 cells was used to assess the formation of pulmonary metastasic foci. To date, these data have been studied with a two-step process cumulating in an integrative data analysis to identify genes controlling metastatic colonisation. We present the raw data, and a description to support fresh analyses where researchers can look both within and across gene sets to further elucidate process that regulate metastatic colonisation.
