Advances in multicellular spheroids formation.
Three-dimensional multicellular spheroids (MCSs) have a complex architectural structure, dynamic cell-cell/cell-matrix interactions and bio-mimicking in vivo microenvironment. As a fundamental building block for tissue reconstruction, MCSs have emerged as a powerful tool to narrow down the gap between the in vitro and in vivo model. In this review paper, we discussed the structure and biology o...
متن کاملUnsuccessful mitosis in multicellular tumour spheroids
Multicellular spheroids are very attractive models in oncology because they mimic the 3D organization of the tumour cells with their microenvironment. We show here using 3 different cell types (mammary TSA/pc, embryonic kidney Hek293 and cervical cancer HeLa), that when the cells are growing as spheroids the frequency of binucleated cells is augmented as occurs in some human tumours.We therefor...
متن کاملStress clamp experiments on multicellular tumor spheroids.
The precise role of the microenvironment on tumor growth is poorly understood. Whereas the tumor is in constant competition with the surrounding tissue, little is known about the mechanics of this interaction. Using a novel experimental procedure, we study quantitatively the effect of an applied mechanical stress on the long-term growth of a spheroid cell aggregate. We observe that a stress of ...
متن کاملGrowth of mammalian multicellular tumor spheroids.
The in vitro growth of small (0.05 to 3 mm diameter) avascular multicellular tumor spheroids from six rodent and two human tumor lines has been analyzed. Surprisingly, the radial increase of multicellular tumor spheroids is linear with time after a brief initial period of geometric growth. These multicellular tumor spheroids are shown to have a constant thickness of proliferative outer crust an...
متن کاملA Growth Model for Multicellular Tumor Spheroids
Most organisms grow according to simple laws, which in principle can be derived from energy conservation and scaling arguments, critically dependent on the relation between the metabolic rate B of energy flow and the organism mass m. Although this relation is generally recognized to be of the form B(m) = m, the specific value of the exponent p is the object of an ongoing debate, with many mecha...
