The effect of ascites on OvCa cell adhesion and invasion. Treatment of SKOV3ip1 OvCa cells with ascites during adhesion to (A) and invasion through (B) the 3D organotypic model. Three independent patient ascites samples were tested. * (p<0.01) denotes a significant change in number of bound or invaded cells between treatments. Each bar represents the average of 3 wells and standard deviation. Hematoxylin and eosin staining of the 3D organotypic model with SKOV3ip1 OvCa cells for 48 hours in absence (C) or presence (D) of ascites. Col I, collagen I; HPMC, human primary mesothelial cells; HPF, human primary fibroblasts.
