Establishment and characterization of a patient-derived solitary fibrous tumor/hemangiopericytoma cell line model. (PubMed, Hum Cell)
Among a panel of 14 targeted agents screened, dasatinib was identified to be the most potent small molecule inhibitor against the PDC (IC, 473 nM), followed by osimertinib (IC, 730 nM) and sunitinib (IC, 1765 nM). Methylation profiling of the tumor suggests that this specific variant of SFT/HPC could lead to genome-wide hypomethylation. In conclusion, we established a novel PDC model of SFT/HPC with comprehensive characterization of its genomic, epigenomic and transcriptomic landscape, which can facilitate future preclinical studies of SFT/HPC, such as in vitro drug screening and in vivo drug testing.
