Variable susceptibility to NK activity of cloned cell lines derived from a primary rat rhabdomyosarcoma: relationship to metastatic potential.

Abstract:

:In vitro cloned lines derived from a primary nickel-induced rat rhabdomyosarcoma exhibited diverse levels of susceptibility to spontaneous NK activity. The presence of NK target structures was revealed by competition assays on all cloned cell lines, and the NK susceptibility of the tumour lines varied according to their osmotic fragility. Tumour cell lines derived from metastatic lung nodules presented similar NK susceptibilities to cells originating from the primary tumour. However, cloned cell lines differed in their capacity to form lung colonies after i.v. injection, and in their potential for invading lungs after s.c. primary tumour development. No correlation was found between lung colonization potential and NK resistance. Studies of the correlation between metastatic potential and NK sensitivity revealed that (1) all the NK resistant tumour cells were highly metastatic; (2) NK susceptible tumour cells could be either highly or weakly metastatic. Therefore, highly metastatic tumour cells could be either resistant or susceptible to NK lysis. We conclude that the property of resistance to NK contributes to a high metastatic potential. However, other properties could counterbalance and finally prevail over NK susceptibility thus enabling NK susceptible cell lines to be also highly metastatic.
