Popis: Summary: Studying cell behavior in live human tumors is crucial to understand and improve response to immunotherapies. Here, we present a protocol to slice human ovarian tumors ex vivo, maintain their viability for 24 h, and monitor the behavior of CD8+ T and myeloid cells in real time. Furthermore, we detail procedures to semi-automatically analyze cell movements and aggregate and process behavior data. This protocol can potentially be applied for multiple tumor types and mouse cancer models.For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Laforets et al.1 : Publisher’s note: Undertaking any experimental protocol requires adherence to local institutional guidelines for laboratory safety and ethics.
