A model of quiescent tumour microregions for evaluating multicellular resistance to chemotherapeutic drugs.
The quiescent cell population of tumours poses a barrier to the success of many cancer therapies. Most chemotherapeutic drugs target proliferating cells, but the growth fraction of many tumours is low. Based on the multicellular tumour spheroid model, a system was developed using human colon adenoca...
