Abstract:
Objective To reproduce a pulmonary carcinoma model by injecting VX2 tumor tissue block suspension into rabbits' lung,and to compare the result with that of injecting VX2 tumor cells suspension.Methods A total of 50 New Zealand white rabbits were divided into two groups randomly with 25 in each.The VX2 tumor tissue block suspension and cell suspension were injected respectively into the right lower lung of each rabbit in two groups.The growth and metastasis of tumor in the thorax were observed with CT scan.The general condition of the animals was observed as well.Results The pathological pictures of the VX2 tumors were the same in two groups.The ratio of successful transplantation was 100% in the tissue block suspension group,while it was 48% in the cells suspension group,a remarkable difference in the success rate of tumor transplantation was found between the two methods(P
