Description

Elucidation of the key mechanisms underlying resistance to chemotherapy is an on-going and complex process. Owing to its suggested increased biological relevance, many are now transitioning from two-dimensional (2D) to three-dimensional (3D) cellular-based assay systems. These systems permit the formation of 3D multicellular structures (MCS). The internal micro-environment of these structures mimics closely those found in vivo. In addition they are considered to provide a more biologically relevant model of chemo-resistance. This study focuses on the utilization of a novel 3D culture technology to compare chemo-resistant models of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in 3D culture with those cultured in 2D monolayers. Critically, this will provide a valuable tool to determine the biological discrepancies which exist between the two culture methods with the aim to identify novel mechanisms of chemo-resistance in NSCLC.

Search Google Scholar™

Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.

These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.

Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
