Novel Two MRT Cell Lines Established from Multiple Sites of a Synchronous MRT Patient

Background/Aim: Malignant rhabdoid tumor (MRT) is a rare, aggressive neoplasm found in young children, caused by inactivation of a single gene, SNF5 (INI1, SMARCB1). MRT cases with multifocal tumors at diagnosis are categorized as synchronous MRT, often with a germline mutation of SNF5. The aim of this study was to establish new models useful in clarifying the biological basis of synchronous MRT. Materials and Methods: We established two novel...
