A new experimental metastasis model in athymic nude mice, the human malignant melanoma LOX.

Abstract:

:The human tumor line LOX was established as an s.c. xenograft in nude mice from a lymph-node metastasis of a patient with malignant melanoma. I.v. injection into adult nude mice of single-cell suspensions prepared from xenografts resulted in progressively growing lung tumor colonies that killed the animals. No difference in colony formation was seen between cells taken from lung colonies and s.c. xenografts. An in vitro cell line, LOX-L, was established from lung colonies, and the monolayer cells, detached with EDTA, retained the same ability to form experimental lung metastases. In a total of 14 experiments, 82 of 89 mice receiving 1 X 10(6) viable tumor cells died with a mean survival time of 34.1 +/- 4.8 days. Long-term passaging in vivo and in vitro did not result in any alteration of the lung-colonizing potential of the LOX cells, whereas trypsinization of the cells before i.v. injection reduced lung colony formation. The life span was inversely related to the number of LOX cells injected, permitting estimation of the cell kill caused by chemotherapy. Mice injected i.v. with the LOX cells showed the same relative response to cis-diamminedichloroplatinum (CDDP) and mitozolomide (MZA) as did animals carrying s.c. xenografts. The LOX cells have shown a remarkable stability and similarity to the cells of the patient's tumor with respect to morphology, karyotype and chemosensitivity. The LOX model may be useful for testing effects of therapy on lung micro- and macrometastases, and the activity of antimetastatic agents, as well as for studying mechanisms involved in the metastatic process.

  • Determination of the origin of oral squamous cell carcinoma by microarray analysis: Squamous epithelium or minor salivary gland?

    abstract::More than 90% of oral cancers are histopathologically squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs). According to clinical behavior and histopathological features, we hypothesize that oral SCC can originate from either oral squamous epithelium or minor salivary glands. Here, we examined whether some oral SCCs originate from minor s...
