  • Publication number: 20130196349
    Abstract: This invention provides a system and methods for modeling tumor metastasis in vitro where primary tumor tissue is cultivated in an orientation and an environment such that the natural composition, three-dimensional organization, and environmental conditions of the tumor can be adjusted. The invention further provides mechanism for inducing tumors to undergo metastatic processes resulting in production of tumor progenitor or stem cells that can be collected, characterized, or used to induce tumors in normal tissue constructs in vitro.

  • Patent number: 4514499
    Abstract: A novel immobilized cell composite used in a novel apparatus/method for cell culture. The composite comprises:(a) a high surface area monolithic support having a multiplicity of mutually parallel channels passing therethrough, the channels having walls formed of a medium-insoluble, non-toxic, composition and the support having at least about 20 channels per square inch of cross-sectional area; and(b) a population of plant or animal tissue cells anchored to the porous channel walls.
