Abstract:
Objective To explore the biological characteristics of pancreatic cancer vascular endothelial cells,including the aspects of morphology,species,genetics,vascular formation ability,and proliferation ability in vitro.Methods The human pancreatic cancer cells were inoculated in nude mice pancreas to get pancreatic cancer vascular endothlial cell.The pancreatic cancer vascular endothelial cells were cultured in vitro.The passage number and passage time were recorded.The morphological features under common microscopy of each passage were observed.The species origin and genetic characteristics of the pancreatic cancer vascular endothelial cells were detected by karyotype assay.The ability of angiogenesis of the pancreatic cancer vascular endothelial cells in vitro was determined by tube formation assay.The proliferation of the pancreatic cancer vascular endothelial cells in vitro was measured by MTT method.The data were analyzed by one way analysis of variance and paired difference test.Results Under appropriate culture condition, the pancreatic cancer endothelial cells were passaged every two to three days.Once confluence was attained,the cells were in monolayer growth and with cobblestone feature.The species type of the pancreatic cancer vascular endothelial cells was human type.A large number of polyploid cells, non-integer multiple chromosomes cells, nuclear chromosome loss, nuclear chromosome dislocation, and unanalyzable fragments were observed.The pancreatic cancer vascular endothelial cells could form a hollow tubular structure in vitro.After cultured for 48 and 72 hours,the absorbance of the pancreatic cancer vascular endothelial cells was 0.581 ± 0.014 and 1.082 ± 0.033 respectively,both were significantly higher than those of human umbilical vein vascular endothelial cells (0.379± 0.038,t=8.720,P=0.001;0.604±0.026,t=19.883,P＜0.01).Conclusions The species origin of pancreatic cancer vascular endothelial cells is same as human pancreatic cancer cells.The cells have typical morphological features and in vitro angiogenesis formation ability of vascular endothelial cells,whose genetic feature is instable and proliferation is active.
