A new human cell line designated OMC-1 was established from a metastatic lesion of Virchow lymph node of a large cell non-keratinizing squamous cell carcinoma of the uterine cervix. OMC-1 was successively subcultured 30 times in about 15 months. The monolayer cultured cells appeared to be epithelial with a pavement-like arrangement and tendency to pile up without contact inhibition. Electronmicroscopy showed desmosomes and well-developed tonofilaments. The population doubling time was 43-70 hours, the saturation density was 1.3-1.7 X 10(5) cells/cm2, the plating efficiency was 23-25% and the mitotic index was 3.3-4.8%. Chromosome studies showed aneuploidy and a modal number of 45. After subcutaneous transplantation into nude mice, the cells grew into solid large cell non-keratinizing squamous cell carcinomas. By the flow cytometric analysis, the phase fractions of the cells was G1 + G0 = 40.1%, S = 24.9% and G2 + M = 35.0%. The OMC-1 cells produced TA-4 in culture media. TA-4 was also demonstrated immunohistochemically in the original tumor tissue, cultured cells and tumors in nude mice.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008854 Microscopy, Electron Microscopy using an electron beam, instead of light, to visualize the sample, thereby allowing much greater magnification. The interactions of ELECTRONS with specimens are used to provide information about the fine structure of that specimen. In TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY the reactions of the electrons that are transmitted through the specimen are imaged. In SCANNING ELECTRON MICROSCOPY an electron beam falls at a non-normal angle on the specimen and the image is derived from the reactions occurring above the plane of the specimen. Electron Microscopy
D002294 Carcinoma, Squamous Cell A carcinoma derived from stratified SQUAMOUS EPITHELIAL CELLS. It may also occur in sites where glandular or columnar epithelium is normally present.
