Background and objective The recurrence and metastasis of lung cancer is a tough problem worldwide. The aim of this study is to establish a novel Chinese lung adenocarcinoma cell line and its real bone-seeking clone sub-line for exploring the molecular mechanism of lung cancer metastasis. Methods The cells came from the pleural effusion of a sixtyfive years old female patient with lung adenocarcinoma and supraclavicular lymph node metastases. The gene expression was detected by real-time quantitative PCR. Intracardiac injection of the cells into nude mice was performed and in vivo imaging was obtained by bone scintigraphy and conventional radiography. Bone metastases were determined on bone scintigraphy and then the lesions were resected under deep anesthesia for bone metastasis cancer cell culture. The process was repeated for four cycles to obtain a real bone-seeking clone. Results The tumorigenesis rate started at 4th passage in immunodeficient mice via subcutaneously and as well as later passages. Approximately 1×106 cancer cells were injected into left cardiac ventricle of immunodeficient mice resulted bone metastasis sites were successfully revealed by bone scintigraphy and pathological diagnosis, the mandible (100%), scapula (33%), humerus (50%), vertebral column (50%), femur (66.7%) and accompanied invasion with other organs, the adrenal gland (17%), pulmonary (33%), liver (50%), submaxillary gland (33%) in the mice after inoculation two-three weeks. The chromosome karyotype analysis of the cells was subdiploid. Quantitative real-time PCR was used to examined and compared with SPC-A-1 lung adenocarcinoma, ESM1, VEGF-C, IL-6, IL-8, AR, SVIL, FN1 genes were overexpress. The novel cell was named CPA-Yang3. The femur metastasis cell was repeated in vivo-in vitro-in vivo with three cycles and harvested a real bone metastasis clone. It was named CPA-Yang3BM. Conclusion Tne characteristics of novel strain CPAYang3 is a highly metastasis cell line of Chinese lung adenocarcinoma and CPA-Yang3BM is a real bone-seeking clone.

Background and objective The recurrence, metastasis and multidrug resistance (MDR) in lung cancer are the tough problems worldwide. This study was to establish a novel chinese lung adenocarcinoma cell line with high metastasis potential for exploring the mechanism of reccurrence, development and MDR in lung cancer. Methods The cell came from the abdominal dropsy of a fifty-six years old female patient with lung adenocarcinoma and the tumor markers CA125, CYFRA21-1, CEA, NSE were detected to be higher secretion by radioimmunoassay in the abdominal dropsy. Tumorigenicity of immunodeficient mice was confirmed in 8th passage. The cell growth curve was mapped. Analysis of chromosome karyotype was tested. The gene expression was measured by real-time quantitative PCR. Results The tumorigenesis rate started at 8th passage in 3/10 immunodeficient mice via subcutaneously and the fully tumorigenicity was at 11th passage as well as later passages. Under the microscope, the cell showed oval-shap and adherence. The chromosome karyotype analysis of the cells was sub-triploid. Approximately 1×106 and 1.5×106 cancerous cells were injected into left cardiac ventricle and tail vein of immunodeficient mice respectively. The results showed multiorgan metastasis in the mice after three-four weeks, including mandible, scapula, humerus, vertebral column, femur, rib and brain, liver, adrenal gland, pulmonary in the mice after inoculation. The bone metastasis rate was 100% in the tumor bearing mice by bone scintigraphy and pathology. Quantitative real-time PCR was used to examined and compared with SPC-A-1 lung adenocarcinoma, ESM1, VEGF-C, IL-6, IL-8, AR genes were overexpressed. The novel cell was named CPA-Yang2. Conclusion The characteristics of novel strain CPA-Yang2 is a highly metastasis cell line of Chinese lung adenocarcinoma. It has stable traits, highly metastasis ability and maybe is a MDR lung cancerous cell line. Of course, it’s a good experimental model for lung cancer research.

Background and objective Lung cancer is a common malignancy and is the major determinant of overall cancer mortality worldwidely. Approximately 70% of lung cancer patients will die from metastatic diseases. The aim of this study is to establish a Chinese lung adenocarcinoma cell line with high metastasis potency for exploring the mechanism of occurrence and development in lung cancer. Methods The cell came from the pericardial effusion of a fifty-year old male patient with lung adenocarcinoma and the cells in primary culture were obtained successfully. Immunodeficient mice tumorigenicity was assayed. The cell growth curve was mappinged. Analysis of chromosome karyotype was tested. Tumor marker was detected by radioimmunoassay. The gene expression was measured by real-time quantitative PCR. Results The first passage cells were planted in immunodeficient mice subcutaneously and the tumorigenesis rate was 100% as well as later passages. Under the microscope, the cell showed larger and semi-suspension, semi-adherence. Approximately 0.8×106 cancerous cells were injected into left cardiac ventricle or tail vein of immunodeficient mice resulted start to appear lower limb paralysis and spine swelling deformation in the mice after inoculation two-three weeks. The bone metastasis rate was 90% in the tumor bearing mice by bone scintigraphy and pathology and only pulmonary metastasis 10% at the same time. The chromosome karyotype analysis of the cells was sub-triploid. The tumor marker CEA was detected in higher secretion by radioimmunoassay in the cell culture suspension. Quantitative real-time PCR was used to examined and compared SPC-A-1 lung adenocarcinoma, VEGF-C, IL-6, IL-8, genes were overexpressed. The novel cell line was named CPA-Yang1. Conclusion Tne novel strain CPA-Yang1 is an parental cell with characteristics of bone metastasis of Chinese lung adenocarcinoma. It has stable traits, highly metastatic ability and a good experimental model for lung cancer research.
