Beschreibung
This new edition explores the innovation and improvement of experimental techniques harnessed to dissect the complex relationship between cancer cells and the immune system of the host. Beginning with spectral and multicolor flow cytometric methods to characterize the immune contexture of different forms of metastases, the book continues with functional assays to study the activation status of immune cells with antitumor properties, bioinformatic approaches of interest for cancer immunology research, techniques for performing epigenetic studies, as well as methods related to translational research. 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 and readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Authoritative and up-to-date, Cancer Immunosurveillance: Methods and Protocols, Second Edition serves as a valuable resource for scientists seeking inspiration for new ideas and research in the field of tumor immunology.
