Abstract excerpt
In this study we investigated the tumorigenicity, growth pattern and spontaneous metastatic ability of a series of nine human colorectal carcinoma cell lines after subcutaneous and intracaecal xenografting in nude mice. CaCo2 cells were found to be poorly tumorigenic to non-tumorigenic in either site; the other cell lines were tumorigenic in both sites. SW1116, SW480 and SW620 did not show local invasive in the...
