What are Common Techniques Used in Cancer Research Protocols?
Several techniques are commonly used in cancer research protocols:
Cell Culture: Growing cancer cells in controlled laboratory conditions to study their behavior and test treatments. Animal Models: Using animals, such as mice, to study cancer development and treatment in a living organism. Genomics: Analyzing the genetic material of cancer cells to identify mutations and understand genetic influences on cancer. Proteomics: Studying the proteins expressed by cancer cells to understand their function and interactions. Drug Screening: Testing potential cancer drugs on cell lines or animal models to evaluate their efficacy and toxicity.
