Lipid tethering of breast tumor cells reduces cell aggregation during mammosphere formation
Abstract Mammosphere assays are widely used in vitro to identify prospective cancer-initiating stem cells that can propagate clonally to form spheres in free-floating conditions. However, the traditional mammosphere assay inevitably introduces cell aggregation that interferes with the measurement of...
