Abstract

Extracellular tumor material including exosomes, microvesicles and apoptotic tumor debris may help cancers invade new organs. Enhancing the removal of extracellular tumor material by immune cells represents a novel immunotherapy approach for preventing cancer metastasis. This protocol quantifies the uptake and removal of extracellular tumor material from circulation and tissues by immune cells. In this assay fluorescent tumor cells are transferred into mice, and then immune cells are quantified by either flow cytometry or imaging cytometry for their uptake of tumor material.

Keywords: Cancer (癌症)

Background

Recent studies have demonstrated that extracellular tumor material including exosomes, microvesicles and apoptotic tumor debris shed from tumors are important mediators of tumor metastasis, growth and evasion of the immune response (Vader et al., 2014; Pucci and Pittet, 2013; Pucci et al., 2016). Immune cells have the ability to remove, respond and transport this circulating tumor material (Hanna et al., 2015; Pucci et al., 2016; Headley et al., 2016). This protocol offers a novel approach to quantify tumor material uptake by specific immune cell populations, and may be adapted to test immune targets that regulate tumor material uptake. This protocol may assist in better understanding the immune response to extracellular tumor material, with the hope of eventually developing novel therapies targeting extracellular tumor material in cancer development.
