An epithelial cell line, NPC/HK1, has recently been successfully established from a moderately to well differentiated squamous carcinoma of the nasopharynx. This communication reports on the fine structures observed in the carcinoma cells of the original tumour biopsy and those of the NPC/HK1 cells from different culture generations derived from it.

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.
