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
Numerous procedures have been described which test the chemosensitivity of tumor cell lines. A major disadvantage of most of these assays is that practical limitations prevent the testing of more than a few variables. We have adapted a rapid and efficient colorimetric assay for testing the chemosens
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
