MY LATEST RESEARCH

An innovative strategy is reported to perform multiparametric biomechanical and biochemical phenotypic profiling of free-floating single cancer cells using our newly developed elasticity microcytometer. The elasticity microcytometer was implemented for single-cell measurements and comparisons of four human cell lines with distinct metastatic potentials and derived from different human tissues. The robust, high throughput measurement holds a great promise for comprehensive molecular, cellular, and biomechanical phenotypic profiling of live cancer cells at the single cell level, critical for studying intra-tumor cellular and molecular heterogeneity using low-abundance, clinically relevant human cancer cells.
