Mature tumouroids manufactured using 786-O cells, treated with Pazopanib.
Tumouroids were exposed to Pazopanib at day 10 of manufacture, in
normoxia or hypoxia, for a total of 120 h. Normoxia (20% O2):
a, b, c, g, h, i; hypoxia (1% O2): d, e, f, j, k, l. (a) Cell
viability measured using CellTiter Glo after treatment with Pazopanib
(normoxic conditions). (b) Cell cycle analysis of treated tumouroids
(normoxic conditions). (c) VEGF levels in treated tumouroids measured
using ELISA, shown as a percentage to untreated tumouroids (normoxic
conditions). (d) Cell viability measured using CellTiter Glo after
treatment with Pazopanib in hypoxia (1% O2). (e) Cell cycle
analysis of treated tumouroids (hypoxic conditions). (f) VEGF levels in
the supernatant of treated tumouroids shown as a percentage to untreated
tumouroid (ELISA, hypoxic conditions). (g, j) Surface area of spheroids
following treatment in (g) normoxia or (j) hypoxia demonstrating effect
of treatment on spheroid size. (h, i, k, l) Fluorescent images of cancer
spheroids within mature tumouroids for (h, k) control and (i, l) treated
tumouroids in (h, i) normoxia or (k, l) hypoxia (Phalloidin staining,
DAPI counterstain; scale bar = 100 µm).
