Abstract
Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most-commonly diagnosed cancer worldwide with limited availability for non-surgical treatments. The Hedgehog signaling cascade drives tumorigenesis, but efforts to develop effective chemotherapeutics have been thwarted by chemoresistant tumor recurrence. A contributing factor to this is an overall lack of human-based preclinical models. We endeavored to develop 3D organotypic raft models that mimic characteristics of human BCC by combining primary normal human epidermal keratinocytes (NHEK) with established murine BCC cells.
