It is generally assumed that tumor progression is a microevolutionary process in which increasingly aggressive clones, generated through genetic instability, emerge in an initially monoclonal lesion. The present study was undertaken to determine how rapidly a dominant clone will emerge from an initi

A human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG)-producing gastric carcinoma was transplanted into BALB/c nu/nu nude mice. The original tumor tissue had been obtained by gastrectomy from a 55-year-old patient with gastric carcinoma. The tumor was transplanted serially in nude mice, and its doubling time was sta
Woodchuck hepatocellular carcinoma has been successfully transplanted into nude (athymic) mice. The morphology of heterotransplanted tumor is similar to that of naturally occurring hepatocellular carcinoma before transplantation. The growth rate of transplanted tumor was very slow compared with thos
