It’s White Paper Wednesday! Read our featured white paper: Characterization of Breast Cancer Drugs via Mammosphere Morphometric Analysis Using Celigo Imaging Cytometer
A panel of cytotoxic drugs, including doxorubicin and paclitaxel were used to study their effects on various breast cancer cell lines such as MDA-MD-436, MCF-7, SKBR3 and MDA-MB-231. Results show that the Colony Counting application can also be used to evaluate the clonogenicity and self-renewal of cancer stem/tumor-initiating cells by automatically analyzing mammosphere populations. The Colony Counting application on Celigo provides an efficient, reproducible and automated method for assessing the number, size, and morphology of cancer spheroids within multiwell plates.
