The management of primary lymphoma of the central nervous system (PCNSL) remains controversial and patients' outcome dismal. In order to investigate new selective therapeutic strategies in a controlled system, a reproducible model of PCNSL in nude rats was developed and characterized. Human B lymphoma cells (BL2) were implanted in the brain frontal area in New Zealand nude rats through a silastic device sealed to the skull. Fifteen and 30 days post-implantation, animals were sacrificed. An autopsy was performed. Representative brain sections were cut and examined for the presence of lymphoma. Immunohistochemistry was performed for proliferation (MIB1-Ki67), a B-cell marker (L26-CD20), a T-cell marker (UCHL1-CD45RO).
