| Summary: | Summary: Ovarian cancer (OC) presents significant challenges due to late diagnosis and high recurrence rates, necessitating a deeper understanding of the molecular and cellular characteristics of OC and the exploration of novel therapeutic approaches. Here, we provide a protocol to characterize primary OC patient samples, including the tumor and the tumor microenvironment (TME), using flow cytometry. Additionally, we detail the design and evaluation of various cell-based immunotherapies aimed at targeting primary OC tumor and the TME through in vitro killing assays.For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Li et al.1 : Publisher’s note: Undertaking any experimental protocol requires adherence to local institutional guidelines for laboratory safety and ethics. |
