Tumor microenvironment-like conditions alter pancreatic cancer cell metabolism and behavior

Abstract excerpt

Standard cell culture conditions do not replicate the complex tumor microenvironment experienced by cells in vivo. Although currently available plasma-like media are superior to traditional supraphysiological media, they fail to model tumor-like conditions. Using RNA-seq analysis and functional metabolic and migratory assays, we show that tumor microenvironment medium (TMEM), used with representative tumor...
