Description

This detailed volume provides a robust set of methods to understand variation between patients with ovarian cancers, in vitro models to better study different stages of the disease, and in vivo models to test therapies. Beginning with clinical perspectives to orient basic scientists, the book continues with sections exploring methods to characterize features of the tumor microenvironment (TME), techniques to isolate cells for in vitro study, and in vitro and in vivo models to study the disease. Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Authoritative and practical, Ovarian Cancer: Methods and Protocols serves as an ideal guide for researchers seeking to improve their study of ovarian cancer and find new therapeutic approaches.
