The ROR1 gene encodes a receptor-like tyrosine kinase that is involved in cell adhesion, migration, and signaling. ROR1 is expressed in various tissues during development and is particularly important in the nervous system. Aberrant ROR1 signaling has been implicated in several diseases, including cancer, where it may promote tumor growth and metastasis. In cancer research, ROR1 is of interest as a potential target for therapeutic intervention. The CT26 cell line is a murine colon adenocarcinoma cell line that is often used to study colon cancer biology and as a model for cancer therapy. When CT26 cells are engineered to stably express the human ROR1 gene, they provide a useful platform for investigating the role of ROR1 in cancer progression. This stable cell line enables researchers to explore the effects of ROR1 on cell behavior, its involvement in tumorigenesis, and the potential for ROR1-targeted therapies in colon cancer and other malignancies.

Cancer is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide, with an estimated 19.3 million new cases and nearly 10 million cancer deaths in 2020.ROR1 is a tumor-associated antigen that is overexpressed in a wide range of malignancies. In this study, researchers designed and produced different murine ROR1 fusion proteins to enhance the immunogenicity and protective potency of ROR1. These fusion proteins contained the extracellular region of murine ROR1, an immunogenic fragment of tetanus toxin (TT), and the Fc region of murine IgG2a. The researchers used these fusion proteins to immunize Balb/C mice and evaluated the humoral and cellular immune responses and anti-tumor effects of these fusion proteins in two different syngeneic mouse ROR1+ tumor models. The results showed that all immunized groups of mice produced ROR1-specific antibodies, and in particular, mice immunized with the TT-mROR1-Fc fusion proteins had significantly higher levels of IFN-γ, IL-17, and IL-22 cytokines and a higher frequency of ROR1-specific CTLs. Ultimately, tumor challenge results in immunized mice showed that immunization with the TT-mROR1-Fc fusion protein completely inhibited the growth of ROR1+ tumor cells in both syngeneic tumor models until day 120 post-tumor challenge. These preclinical studies demonstrate for the first time these fusion proteins as potential vaccine candidates for active immunotherapy of ROR1-expressing malignancies.

Figure 1 shows the protective effect of the fusion proteins, including the design of the tumor challenge experiments, the growth curves and Kaplan-Meier survival curves of CT26-ROR1 and 4T1-ROR1 tumors, the methods of analysis of MDSC and Treg cells, and the correlation of their frequencies with tumor volume. (doi: 10.3390/cancers14235827)Figure 1. The researchers used the Balb/C mouse model to study the role of the Human ROR1 stable cell line-CT26 in an in vivo tumor protection assay. Two weeks after immunization, the researchers tumor-challenged the mice with CT26-ROR1+ and 4T1-ROR1+ tumor cells. They then analyzed immunosuppressive cell populations in splenocytes by flow cytometry and measured tumor volume to assess immune response and survival. These approaches revealed the potential of CT26-ROR1+ in immunotherapy. (Hassannia H, et al., 2022)

The Human ROR1 Stable Cell Line - CT26 is a valuable tool for studying the Receptor-Like Orphan Receptor 1 (ROR1) and its role in various biological processes. ROR1 is a cell surface receptor involved in cell migration, proliferation, and survival, and has been implicated in cancer progression. (1)Cancer Research: This cell line can be utilized to investigate the function of ROR1 in cancer cell lines, particularly in the context of tumor growth and metastasis. Researchers can use these cells to test the effects of ROR1 activation or inhibition on cancer cell behavior, providing insights into potential therapeutic targets for ROR1-driven cancers. (2)Signaling Pathway Analysis: The CT26 cell line expressing ROR1 enables the study of downstream signaling pathways activated by this receptor. By employing gene expression analysis, protein-protein interaction studies, and functional assays, scientists can elucidate the molecular mechanisms by which ROR1 influences cell signaling. (3)Drug Discovery and Development: The stable expression of ROR1 in CT26 cells provides an excellent platform for high-throughput screening of compounds targeting ROR1. This can lead to the identification of novel ROR1 antagonists or agonists with potential applications in cancer therapy and other diseases where ROR1 plays a significant role.
