Over the past year, we have attempted to grow both primary and metastatic urologic malignancies using a recently developed human tumor cloning system. Formation of colonies in vitro occurred in 125 of 164 primary tumors (76%), including 34 of 47 uroepithelial cancer specimens, 45 of 50 renal cell ca
The MTT assay reported by Mosmann is a rapid and convenient colorimetric assay for cellular growth and survival in vitro. In this paper, the MTT assay was modified as a chemosensitivity test, and its potential was investigated. Using 10 human tumor xenografts in athymic nude mice, the predictability
We report a double-agar clonogenic system adapted to human breast cancer. We optimized the conditions for cell growth and clonogenicity with respect to hormones (insulin, estradiol, progesterone) and components of the extracellular matrix (collagen, laminin and fibronectin). Using our experimental i
