An epithelial cell line, NPC/HK1, has recently been established from a biopsy specimen of a recurrent tumour of the nasopharynx which was histologically diagnosed as a moderately to well differentiated squamous cell carcinoma. A definite decrease in the amount of tonofilaments and desmosomes in the NPC/HK1 cells during the cell line establishment was observed. The present communication reports on the fine structures of the NPC/HK1 cells heterotraneplanted in athymic nude mice.

Bewo Cell Line

Growth of cell system (BeWo-cell line) derived from human gestational choriocarcinoma has been established and continuously maintained in-vitro. Furthermore, it is evident from the previous studies that this cell line has retained the physiological function of the placental trophoblasts, namely the synthesis of human chorionic gonadotrophil(HCG).The BeWo cells were relatively small and possessed single nuclei, thus indicating that this cell line consists exclusively of cytotrophoblasts. In some instances cells appeared widely separated and their lateral surfaces were provided with numerous microvilli (Fig.1).

A Cell

A cell line, UC1-B, which was derived from Balb/3T3 cells, maintains the same morphological characteristics of the non-transformed parental culture, and shows no evidence of spontaneous virus production. Survey by electron microscopy shows that the cell line consists of spindle-shaped cells with no unusual features and no endogenous virus particles.UC1-B cells respond to Moloney leukemia virus (MLV) infection by a change in morphology and growth pattern which is typical of cells transformed by sarcoma virus. Electron microscopy shows that the cells are now variable in shape (rounded, rhomboid, and spindle), and each cell type has some microvilli. Virtually all (90%) of the cells show virus particles developing at the cell surface and within the cytoplasm. Maturing viruses, typical of the oncogenic viruses, are found along with atypical tubular forms in the same cell.

Caucasian Female

An infiltrating ductal cell carcinoma was removed from the breast of a postmenopausal Caucasian female. The excised tissue was divided into three parts; one part for electron microscopy, one part for tissue culture and the remainder frozen for immunological studies.The tissue for culture was minced finely with sterile razor blades and cultured in Falcon flasks containing Eagel's MEM supplemented with 10% heat denatured fetal calf serum. The tissue for electron microscopy was fixed in 6.25% glutaraldehyde in 0.1 M PO4 buffer plus 5% sucrose and postfixed in 1% OsO4 in the same buffer. The fixed tissue was dehydrated in graded ethanol and embedded in Spurr.The tissue which was cultured began to grow out after approximately six weeks and became a continuous epithelial cell line which was designated BOT-2 (Breast Original Tumor). Electron microscopic examination revealed that these cells had epithelial characteristics, i.e. the presence of tonofilaments and well formed desmosomes.
