摘要:
The present invention relates to methods for obtaining primary-culture tumour cells from tumour tissue. More precisely, the present invention relates to a method for obtaining primary-culture tumour cells from tumour tissue, in particular breast carcinoma, where, in one method step, the tumour tissue is divided into tumour-tissue sections of a certain size, and these tissue sections are then cultured under defined conditions. The invention also concerns the primary-culture tumour cells that can be obtained by this method from the tumour tissue in particular primary-culture tumour cells from breast carcinoma Finally, the invention relates to the use of these primary-culture tumour cells for, among other things, determining an individual course of tumour treatment, or for testing and screening of new therapeutic agents against tumours.
