title: [The selection of highly lung metastatic salivary adenoid cystic carcinoma clone].
abstract: After 5 times repeated selection in vivo, combined with cloning technique in vitro and analysing of platelet aggregation activity, we had selected a highly lung metastatic salivary adenoid cystic carcinoma clone M-5clone24 (Acc-M). Compared with Acc-2, its metastatic rate was 96% vs. 18%; the weight of metastatic lung was 0.88 g vs. 0.31 g. The metastatic rate and the weight of metastatic lung positively correlated with platelet aggregation activity. The aggregation activity might be used as a useful parameter to assess Acc metastasis potential.
