ABSTRACT
AIM:
To establish patient-individual tumor models of rectal cancer for analyses of novel biomarkers, individual response prediction and individual therapy regimens.METHODS:
Establishment of cell lines was conducted by direct in vitro culturing and in vivo xenografting with subsequent in vitro culturing. Cell lines were in-depth characterized concerning morphological features, invasive and migratory behavior, phenotype, molecular profile including mutational analysis, protein expression, and confirmation of origin by DNA fingerprint. Assessment of chemosensitivity towards an extensive range of current chemotherapeutic drugs and of radiosensitivity was performed including analysis of a combined radio- and chemotherapeutic treatment. In addition, glucose metabolism was assessed with 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) and proliferation with 18F-fluorothymidine.RESULTS:
We describe the establishment of ultra-low passage rectal cancer cell lines of three patients suffering from rectal cancer. Two cell lines (HROC126, HROC284Met) were established directly from tumor specimens while HROC239 T0 M1 was established subsequent to xenografting of the tumor. Molecular analysis classified all three cell lines as CIMP-0/ non-MSI-H (sporadic standard) type. Mutational analysis revealed following mutational profiles HROC126 APCwt , TP53wt , KRASwt , BRAFwt , PTENwt ; HROC239 T0 M1 APCmut , P53wt , KRASmut , BRAFwt , PTENmut and HROC284Met APCwt , P53mut , KRASmut , BRAFwt , PTENmut . All cell lines could be characterized as epithelial (EpCAM+) tumor cells with equivalent morphologic features and comparable growth kinetics. The cell lines displayed a heterogeneous response toward chemotherapy, radiotherapy and their combined application. HROC126 showed a highly radio-resistant phenotype and HROC284Met was more susceptible to a combined radiochemotherapy than HROC126 and HROC239 T0 M1. Analysis of 18F-FDG uptake displayed a markedly reduced FDG uptake of all three cell lines after combined radiochemotherapy.CONCLUSION:
These newly established and in-depth characterized ultra-low passage rectal cancer cell lines provide a useful instrument for analysis of biological characteristics of rectal cancer.Palabras clave
