人食管鳞癌细胞系EC9706的建立及其比较基因组杂交分析

目的 以中国男性食管鳞癌为来源，建立一个可良好传代的细胞系，从而提价七个有用的体外模式用于食管癌的研究。方法 采用组织块培养法，以新鲜的食管癌组织细胞系EC9706，做了初步的生物学特性观察，并采用比较基因组杂交的方法进行细胞遗传学的检测。结果 食管癌细胞系EC9706生长曲线显示其生长良好，易于培养。传代时间为26h，平皿集落形成率为91．9％，且能够在软琼脂中形成集落。经异种接种到裸鼠中均形成移植性肿瘤，肿瘤的病理诊断为中－低分化鳞状细胞癌。比较基因组杂交结果得出染色体1p1,q2-4,2p1,5p,7p14,7q21,11q1,11q2,20q扩增，其中5p表现出高水平的扩增。而染色体2p2,2q2,3p,4,9p,14,18,Xq缺失。结论 建立的细胞系EC9706可用于研究食管癌的癌变过程。

Establishment and comparative genomic hybridization analysis of human esophageal carcinomas cell line EC9706

Objective To establish a long-standing cell line of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) in pursuit of a model for in vitro study of carcinogenesis.Methods Small tissue blocks taken from resected specimens of esophageal cancer were cultured, and cell line EC9706 was established. The biologic properties of EC9706 were characterized. Comparative genomic hybridization(CGH) was performed on the cell line.Results The growth curve of EC9706 was detected. The cell generation time was 26 hours. The plate colony forming efficiency is 91.9%, with the capacity of forming clones in soft agar. EC9706 cells show high tumorigenecity as indicated by the rapid regeneration of moderate-poor-differentiated squamous cell carcinomas after injection into nude mice. CGH analysis indicated copy number gains of 1p1, 1q2-4,2p1,2q1,5p,7p14,7q21,11q1,15q2,20q and losses of 2p2,2q2,3p,4,9p,14,18,Xq. High-level gain of 5p was observed.Conclusion Established cell line EC9706 can serve as a useful tool for studying the carcinogenesis of ESCC.
