摘要
Simple Summary Cancer is a global public health issue. The development and use of in vitro cellular models with pre-clinical animal models are essential to elucidate the complex biology of cancer and test new diagnostic and therapeutic options. Three-dimensional (3D) tumor models are particularly important as they can accurately mimic the behavior of solid tumors. This review article critically discusses the suitability of 3D spheroid models in oncological research.Abstract Advanced tissue engineering processes and regenerative medicine provide modern strategies for fabricating 3D spheroids. Several different 3D cancer models are being developed to study a variety of cancers. Three-dimensional spheroids can correctly replicate some features of solid tumors (such as the secretion of soluble mediators, drug resistance mechanisms, gene expression patterns and physiological responses) better than 2D cell cultures or animal models. Tumor spheroids are also helpful for precisely reproducing the three-dimensional organization and microenvironmental factors of tumors. Because of these unique properties, the potential of 3D cell aggregates has been emphasized, and they have been utilized in in vitro models for the detection of novel anticancer drugs. This review discusses applications of 3D spheroid models in nuclear medicine for diagnosis and therapy, immunotherapy, and stem cell and photodynamic therapy and also discusses the establishment of the anticancer activity of nanocarriers.
