The present invention belongs to the technical field of
animal model construction, and particularly relates to a method for constructing a spontaneous
endometrial cancer mouse model and its application. The construction method includes constructing a mouse model with the
genotype Cre;
PTEN<supgt;flox / ‑< / supgt>; STK11<supgt;flox / flox< / supgt> through the Cre / loxP
system. After activating the expression of
Cre recombinase in uterine epithelial cells of this mouse model, the
PTEN gene and the STK11
gene are selectively knocked out, thereby spontaneously inducing the occurrence of
endometrial cancer. By selectively deleting the
PTEN gene and the STK11 gene in uterine epithelial cells, the present invention rapidly changes the uterine
pathology, and has the advantages of short tumorigenesis time and high tumorigenesis rate. Moreover, due to the use of in-situ tumorigenesis technology, the mouse model of the present invention can simulate the growth environment of human
endometrial cancer, and the histological characteristics of the tumor are extremely close to those of human endometrial
cancer, meeting the biological characteristics of human endometrial
cancer.
