The role of carcinogenic agents in the deveolopment of human
cancers is now being defined using a variety of human cells as
experi mental model systems. A workshop on "neoplastic
transformation in human cell systems in vitro: mechanisms of
carcinogenesis" was held at the Georgetown University Medical
Center, Washington, DC, on April 25-26, 1991. The aims of the
workshop were to present the state-of-the art in the transformation
of human cells in culture, as well as to provide insight into the
molecular and cellular changes involved in the conver sion of
normal cells to a neoplastic state of growth. The following topics
were closely related to the theme of the workshops: 1. Derivation
of in vitro model systems (epithelial, fibroblastic, and
hematopoietic). 2. Factors modulating cellular transformation. 3.
Usefulness of defined in vitro model systems for viral, chemical,
and radiation carcinogenesis. 4. Multistep nature of human cell
carcinogenesis. 5. Role of activated and suppressor oncogenes in
neoplastic trans formation. The workshop was organized by J. S.
Rhim and A. Dritschilo (cochairmen), G. Jay, J. little, M.
McCormick, R Tennant, and R R Weischelbaum. There were 32 speakers,
30 poster presentations, and about 190 participants."
