This second editions explores new and updated approaches for enrichment, detection, isolation, and molecular profiling of circulating tumor cells (CTCs). Chapters detail comprehensive protocols for the capture of CTCs via filtration, density gradient centrifugation, microfluidic, immunomagnetic separation of CTCs, detection of CTCs by immunocytochemistry, fluorescence in situ hybridization, flow cytometry, assays designed for genomic characterization, and functional analyses of CTCs. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, the chapters include brief introductions to the material, lists of necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and a Notes section which highlights tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

Authoritative and cutting-edge, Circulating Tumor Cells: Methods and Protocols, Second Edition aims to be comprehensive guide for researchers in the field.
