In vitro cancer studies require models more appropriate than the standard monolayer cultures of tumoral cell lines. This report describes the production of an in vitro three-dimensional rebuilt tumor using a non-hodgkin malignant lymphoma. The model exploits the relationship between angiogenesis and cancer formation by employing both tumor cells and fusiform cells derived from an angioma. The significance of this model, which has also been used with malignant melanoma cells, is that the rebuilt tumor, when placed in culture, produces many tumorous nodules which are fixed to a sub-layer of fusiform cells and newly-secreted matrix. These are, in effect, in vitro metastases. The ultrastructural aspect of this neomatrix indicates its proteoglycan nature. The micro-environment formed by the vascular cells and matrix appears to be critical for the production of metastases. |
