Features: In experimental oncology research, cell culture has become increasingly important in the post-genomics era—because as a pan-genome analysis method, it enables researchers to analyze the impact of genomic changes on cells. The chapters in this book cover common clinical tumors, including lung cancer, gastric cancer, colorectal cancer, pancreatic cancer, bladder cancer, prostate cancer, ovarian cancer, breast cancer, myoepithelial carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, melanoma, lymphoma, and neuroendocrine tumors. The content includes pathology, cell culture methods, analysis of the difficulties in establishing cell lines, applications, and modifications of methods. Additionally, the book provides a directory of reagent and equipment suppliers. The book features the following:
★ Written by renowned experts, ensuring reliability and authority.
★ Provides detailed descriptions of tumor cell establishment, amplification, and identification, making it highly readable.
★ Discusses drug treatment, selection, differentiation, detection of malignant cells, hazards, and applications of cultured cells, making it highly practical.
★ Introduces safety precautions, implicitly emphasizing the "human-centered" principle.
★ Presents detailed formulations of various special culture media and reagents, with no reservations.
This book is part of the series of biological laboratory publications and is suitable for university students, researchers, clinical doctors, and others engaged in oncology, pathology, cell biology, biochemistry, biotechnology, and pharmacology.
