| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Novel cancer tissue engineering has been developed using sheet-like cancer cell structures, cancer cell sheets, to overcome current artificial cancer fabrication methods for anticancer drug screening. We transplanted cancer cell sheets to small animals and clarified effective tumor formation. In addition, orthotopic liver cancer models were successfully achieved by transplantation of hepatocarcinoma sheet to host liver tissue. Moreover, an in vitro tumor model was constructed by sandwiching a cancer cell sheet between two collagen layers as a biomimicking tumor tissue. In the biomimicking tumor tissue model, hypoxic areas were observed, and the secretion of vascular endothelial growth factor increased time-dependently. Cell growth inside the model was slower than that of conventional culture system. Cytotoxicity of doxorubicin with the model decreased compared with the conventional system, suggesting that the surrounding collagen layer mimicked in vivo tumor structure.
