Abstract excerpt
We attempted to establish an in vivo experimental model of metastasis of oral caner. The HSC-3 cell line, originating from human oral squamous cell carcinoma, was transplanted into nude mice, and metastases to the lymph node and the lung were investigated using genetic analysis. The HSC-3 cells, transplanted subcutaneously into the lateral back of nude mice, and punctured repeatedly after cyst formation, could...
