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 کاملdifferential thermo-resistance of multicellular tumor spheroids
many cell lines, when cultured under proper conditions, can form three dimensionalstructures called multicellular spheroids. these spheroids resemble in vivo tumor models in severalaspects. therefore, studying growth characteristics and behavior of spheroids is beneficial inunderstanding the behavior of tumors under various experimental conditions. in this work, we havestudied the growth proper...
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 کاملOptical properties of multicellular tumour spheroids.
Multicellular tumour spheroids grown in vitro have been widely used in cancer research as an experimental preparation with many of the characteristics of tumours. They provide a model system for understanding the optical behaviour of tumour tissue, which is of interest in novel diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. Optical measurements on fresh spheroids in the wavelength range of 600-1000 nm ...
متن کاملStiffness analysis of 3D spheroids using microtweezers
We describe a novel mechanical characterization method that has directly measured the stiffness of cancer spheroids for the first time to our knowledge. Stiffness is known to be a key parameter that characterizes cancerous and normal cells. Atomic force microscopy or optical tweezers have been typically used for characterization of single cells with the measurable forces ranging from sub pN to ...
