Cells were seeded at 3,000 cells/well in the presence of Spheroid Formation ECM, and incubated at 37 C, 5% CO 2 for 72 hours to form spheroids. Spheroids were then embedded in 50 µl Invasion Matrix, and incubated at 37 C, 5% CO 2 for one hour for polymerization. Then 100 µl of DMEM, 10% FBS was added to each well as a chemoattractant. Non-invasive cells (MCF-7) remain as cell aggregates and do not invade into the surrounding invasion matrix; whereas, invasive cells (MDA-MB-231) invade into the surrounding invasion matrix as spindle-like protrusions.
23 3-D Culture Spheroid Invasion Analysis Quantitative analysis of surface area for non-invasive (MCF-7) and invasive (MDA-MB-231) cell lines over a four day period.

Cancer cells invade into an invasion matrix composed of 10 mg/ml BME and 1 mg/ml collagen I in response to cell culture medium containing 10% FBS; wells were photographed every 24 hours over a 96 hour period.
25 Area (µm 2 ) 3-D Culture Spheroid Invasion Analysis MDA-MB D Invasion Day No Matrix Sulforaphane (µm) D culture spheroid invasion may be used to evaluate modulators of metastasis and EMT No Matrix MDA-MB-231, human breast cancer cells, were induced to form spheroids (72 hours) and embedded in Invasion Matrix. Serial dilutions of Sulforaphane were added to the DMEM, 10% FBS invasion modulating solution as indicated, and spheroid invasion was conducted over a 96 hour period. Sulforaphane inhibited MDA-MB-231 spheroid Invasion in a dose-dependent manner.
26 Summary 3-D cultures provide suitable environments for cells to selfassemble into organotypic structures mimicking the morphology and function their tissue of origin. Spheroids provide ideal tumor models based on morphology, size, physiological gradients, and the formation of heterogeneous cell populations. Spheroids exhibit an extracellular matrix which is instrumental in self-assembly of cancer cells. The addition of ECM proteins promotes spheroid formation and growth. ECM hydrogels provide physiological scaffolds for cancer cells to invade out of tumor spheroids, mimicking early events in metastasis.
