摘要:: We studied the effects of anticancer agents on the inhibition of cell shedding from the surface of multicellular tumor spheroids (MTS). MTS were produced from 2 human tumor cell lines; one melanoma and the other squamous cell lung cancer, by using liquid overlay culture technique. The cell shedding from the melanoma MTS was approximately 10-fold higher than the squamous cell carcinoma MTS. In the melanoma MTS, all 3 drugs studied - vincristine (VCR), doxorubicin (ADR) and cisplatin (DDP)-inhibited cell shedding and the degree of inhibition of cell shedding was drug concentration related. In the squamous cell carcinoma MTS, VCR was as active in inhibiting cell shedding as in the melanoma MTS, but ADR and DDP were less efficacious. When effects on cell shedding were compared with those on cell lethality, VCR produced inhibition of cell shedding at much lower concentrations than those producing cell kill effects. ADR and DDP produced cell lethality as effective as, or more effective than, inhibition of cell shedding. These data seem to parallel known effects of these agents on cell kill and inhibition of metastases. MTS may serve as an in vitro model for the study of cell shedding and metastasis.
