摘要: Studies of cell line-derived human tumor xenografts have suggested that the lymphatics seen in immunohistochemical preparations from non-peripheral regions tumors are nonfunctional. In this investigation, lymphangiogenesis, hemangiogenesis, and lymph node metastasis were studied patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models carcinoma uterine cervix. Lymph vessel density (LVD) blood (BVD) measured preparations. The expression angiogenesis-related genes was investigated by quantitative PCR. Lymphatic functionality assessed with ferritin assay, interstitial fluid pressure (IFP) a Millar catheter. PDX mirrored angiogenesis aggressiveness donor patients' tumors, two highly aggressive developed functional within mass. Tumors intratumoral showed low IFP, high LVD, BVD, large number genes, incidence metastases. LVD correlated associated BVD. Nine development lymhatics identified. High these BVD may be important biomarkers for poor outcome cervix carcinoma.
