癌症死亡率主要是癌症转移的结果。最近显微镜技术的进步使得循环肿瘤细胞(ctc)在血管外(出)的成像成为可能,这是转移过程中的关键步骤。在这里,我们描述了使用活体显微镜技术来成像和分离外渗性黑色素瘤ctc和参与外渗的内皮细胞。这些技术可以作为研究肿瘤转移的手段和抗癌治疗的筛选工具。
Cancer mortality rates are primarily a result of cancer metastasis. Recent advances in microscopy technology allow for the imaging of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) as they extravasate (exit) blood vessels, a key step in the metastasis process. Here, we describe the use of intravital microscopy techniques to image and isolate both extravasating melanoma CTCs and the extravasation-participating endothelial cells. These techniques can be used as a means to study cancer metastasis and as a screening tool for anticancer therapeutics.
