A squamous cell carcinoma cell line LK-17 was established from original surgical specimen of the lung. Doubling time of LK-17 in vitro is 43.2 hours, and chromosome analysis shows various abnormality and main modeat 62. LK-17 shows stable metastatic potential to the lung of nude mouse when injected i.v. LK-17 cells show platelet aggregating activity with number population dependent manner. LK-17 secretes direct factor X activating procoagulant which differs from those of tissue factor, cystein protease A and coagulant cancer antigen 1. These platelet aggregation potential and procoagulant activity may play a important roll in metastatic process.
