MotilityAssay

DescriptionVarious phenotypic characteristics are requiredfor a cancer cell to successfully complete the metastaticcascade. Among these, acquisition of a motile phenotype is one requirement for a cell to become metastatically competent. Procedure1.Place the chamber in 6 well tissue culture plate. Plate 1 million cells in the top chamber of noncoated polyethylene teraphthalate membranes (6-well insert, pore size ......阅读全文
