Human colorectal tumours in short-term organ culture. A stathmokinetic study. 1982

C J Pritchett, and P V Senior, and J P Sunter, and A J Watson, and D R Appleton, and R G Wilson

Short-term organ culture, using a technique to preserve epithelial/stromal interaction and metabolism, is a useful technique for carrying out kinetic studies on human colorectal carcinoma and adjacent normal mucosa, providing initial perturbations of proliferative indices are allowed to settle. Tumours require 3.0 micrograms/ml vincristine for complete metaphase arrest compared with mucosa, which needs 0.5 microgram/ml, a 6-fold difference. Using a stathmokinetic technique, the birth rate of tumour cells is 10.21 cells/1000 cells per hr, compared with 7.73 cells/1000 cells per hr for mucosa, a statistically significant difference (P less than 0.01).
