Protocol to characterize the melanoma tumor immune microenvironment in mice from single cell to flow cytometry analysis

Here, we present a protocol to study and describe immune cells that surround or infiltrate tumor cells or get through the body of a melanoma syngeneic mice model. We describe steps for creating and establishing the syngeneic mouse model, euthanasia, and tumor or organ harvest. We then detail procedu...

Descripción
Sumario:Here, we present a protocol to study and describe immune cells that surround or infiltrate tumor cells or get through the body of a melanoma syngeneic mice model. We describe steps for creating and establishing the syngeneic mouse model, euthanasia, and tumor or organ harvest. We then detail procedures to rapidly achieve a single-cell suspension from different tissue samples to further quantify and analyze the phenotype of the immune cell population (lymphocytes T and B, tumor-associated macrophages, and myeloid-derived suppressor cells) by flow cytometry.
