Abstract

Nine osteosarcoma cell lines, originally developed from six osteosarcoma tumours in five patients, and two cell lines of non‐tumour origin (glia and fibro‐blast) were grown in vitro in the presence of human leukocyte interferon (L‐IF). L‐IF exerted a dose‐dependent inhibition of growth in all these lines. The inhibitory activity displayed characteristics typical of interferons. Inhibition of cell growth occurred at a much lower L‐IF concentration for the osteosarcoma than for the non‐tumour‐derived lines. Inhibition of tumour cell growth was observed at concentrations obtained in the serum of osteosarcoma patients treated with interferon.

Expression of urokinase-type plasminogen activator (u-PA) strongly correlates with a malignant tumor cell phenotype. In the multistep process of metastasis, different cellular functions are influenced by urokinase. The enzyme is known to be effective via both proteolytical and signal transduction me
