Abstract Preventing cancer metastasis requires a thorough understanding of cancer cell invasion. These phenomena occur in human 3-D living tissues. To this end, we developed a human cell-based three-dimensional (3-D) cultured tissue constructs that imitate in vivo human tissue organization. We investigated whether our 3-D cell culture system can be used to analyze the invasion of human oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) cells. The 3-D tissue structure consisted of five layers of normal human dermal fibroblasts along with human dermal lymphatic endothelial cell tubes and was generated by the cell accumulation technique and layer-by-layer assembly using fibronectin and gelatin. OSCC cells with different lymph metastatic capacity were inoculated on the 3-D tissues and their invasion through the 3-D tissue structure was observed. Conventional methods of analyzing cell migration and invasion, that is, 2-D culture-based transwell and Matrigel assays were also used for comparison. The results using the 3-D cultured tissue constructs were comparable to those obtained using conventional assays; moreover, use of the 3-D system enabled visualization of differential invasion capacities of cancer cells. These results indicate that our 3-D cultured tissue constructs can be a useful tool for analysis of cancer cell invasion in a setting that reflects the in vivo tissue organization. © 2018 The Authors.
