Isolation of slow-cycling cancer cells from lung patient-derived xenograft using carboxyfluorescein-succinimidyl ester retention-mediated cell sorting

open access: yesSTAR Protocols, 2023
Summary: The slow-cycling subpopulation plays an important role in anticancer drug resistance and tumor recurrence. Here, we describe a clinically relevant patient-derived xenograft model and a carboxyfluorescein succinimidyl ester dye that is diluted in
