Establishment and Characterization of NCC-DDLPS4-C1: A Novel Patient-Derived Cell Line of Dedifferentiated Liposarcoma.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Dedifferentiated liposarcoma (DDLPS) is a highly malignant sarcoma characterized by the co-amplification of MDM2 and CDK4. Although systemic chemotherapy is recommended for unresectable or metastatic cases, DDLPS is insensitive to conventional chemotherapy, leading to an unfavorable prognosis. Therefore, novel treatment methods are urgently required. Patient-derived cell lines are essential in preclinical studies. Recently, large-scale screening studies using a number of cell lines have been actively conducted for the development of new therapeutic drugs. However, the DDLPS cell line cannot be obtained from public cell banks owing to its rarity, hindering screening studies. As such, novel DDLPS cell lines need to be established. Accordingly, this study aimed to establish a novel DDLPS cell line from surgical specimens. The cell line was named NCC-DDLPS4-C1. NCC-DDLPS4-C1 cells retained copy number alterations corresponding to the original tumors. Further, the cells demonstrated constant growth, spheroid formation, and equivalent invasiveness to MG63 osteosarcoma cells. We also conducted drug screening and integrated the results with those of the previously reported DDLPS cell lines. Consequently, we identified the histone deacetylase inhibitor romidepsin as a novel candidate drug. In conclusion, the NCC-DDLPS4-C1 cell line is a useful tool for the basic study of DDLPS.
