Lymphoma: Methods and Protocols

Lymphomas are lymphoid malignancies derived from B or T lymphocytes, and their study has been and still is paradigmatic for many aspects of cancer research.  Lymphoma: Methods and Protocols presents and discusses key methods that are used in lymphoma research, partly specific for lymphoma research but often adaptable to the study of other cancers. By covering a broad variety of methods used in lymphoma research, this book will be of interest not only for hematologists, hematopathologists, and immunologists but also for scientists interested in other fields of cancer research as well as human genetics. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology™ series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.   Versatile and cutting-edge, Lymphoma: Methods and Protocols serves researchers studying human physiology with the ultimate goal of understanding and controlling these often terrible diseases.
