Phase-contrast microscopy and Transmission electron micrograph of cultured ZJU-0327, ZJU-0725 and ZJU-1127 cells. (a–c, ×100) ZJU-0327, ZJU-0725, and ZJU-1127 cells grew directly from explant 48 h after seeding. (d–f, ×100; g–i, ×200) At P72 of ZJU-0327, ZJU-0725, and ZJU-1127cells formed a monolayer and exhibited typical characteristics of malignancy, including numerous mitotic bodies, a high nuclear-to-cytoplasm ratio, prominent nucleoli, occasional multinucleated giant cells (indicated by the arrows), cytoplasmic vacuoles. (j–l, ×5000) ZJU-0327, ZJU-0725, and ZJU-1127 cells revealed identical ultrastructural features including desmosomes, a sunken nuclear membrane, tonofilaments, cytoplasmic inclusions, and numerous organelles in the cytoplasm
