[Cell cycle and proliferative pool of human tumor strains transplanted into athymic mice]. 1981

E S Revazova, and A S Petrova

Autoradiography was used to study the cell cycle periods and proliferative pools of human tumor strains (Ewing's sarcoma, melanoma, Wilms' tumor, renal carcinoma) transplanted in nude mice. The duration of cell cycles was found to be as follows: 22.2 h for Ewing's sarcoma; 16.3 h for melanoma; 22.8 h for Wilms' tumour; 28.2 h for renal carcinoma, with the proliferative pools being equal to 90.1; 89.9; 71.7 and 21%, respectively. The shorter duration of the melanoma strain cycle is primarily accounted for by the reduced S phase.

D008545 Melanoma A malignant neoplasm derived from cells that are capable of forming melanin, which may occur in the skin of any part of the body, in the eye, or, rarely, in the mucous membranes of the genitalia, anus, oral cavity, or other sites. It occurs mostly in adults and may originate de novo or from a pigmented nevus or malignant lentigo. Melanomas frequently metastasize widely, and the regional lymph nodes, liver, lungs, and brain are likely to be involved. The incidence of malignant skin melanomas is rising rapidly in all parts of the world.

D009396 Wilms Tumor A malignant kidney tumor, caused by the uncontrolled multiplication of renal stem (blastemal), stromal (STROMAL CELLS), and epithelial (EPITHELIAL CELLS) elements. However, not all three are present in every case. Several genes or chromosomal areas have been associated with Wilms tumor which is usually found in childhood as a firm lump in a child's side or ABDOMEN.
