We designed a bioartificial liver support system in which encapsulated multicellular spheroids of rat hepatocytes were utilized as a bioreactor in a hollow fiber cartridge. The spheroids, formed in a positively charged polystyrene dish that contained hormonally defined medium, were encapsulated into
Hypotonicity-induced Ca 2/ signals and volume regulation were studied in proliferating and quiescent subpopulations of multicellular prostate cancer spheroids. Enzymatic dissociation of multicellular spheroids 100 { 19 mm in diameter, which are entirely proliferative, yielded a population of cells w
Multicellular prostate tumor spheroids develop intrinsic P-glycoprotein (Pgp)-mediated multidrug resistance with the appearance of quiescent cell areas. We have investigated the effect of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) on Pgp expression in large, quiescent and drug-resistant multicellul
