This introductory guide provides novice researchers and lab students with a thorough step-by-step approach to standard animal cell culture techniques. Coverage includes lab safety and best practices, sterility management, preparation, ethical considerations, and troubleshooting for common pain points. This is an up-to-date, indispensable handbook for early-career researchers and students, as well as established scientists in biotechnology, cell and developmental biology, pharmaceutical toxicology, cytogenetics, and more.

Multifaceted Role of IL-1 in Cancer and Inflammation summarizes the existing literature and discusses future perspectives about the role of IL-1 in immune suppression, cancer progression, angiogenesis, and resistance to immunotherapies. It also presents mechanisms to overcome IL-1 mediated immune suppression in tumor microenvironment. The book covers topics about the source of IL-1 in the tumor microenvironment, IL-1 mediated downstream pathway, mechanism of IL-1 mediated immune suppression in cancer, and its effect on immunotherapy of cancer. Those topics help readers to understand the effect of IL-1 on cancer immunopathology and immunotherapy, and provide them with broader concepts to develop therapies for IL-1 enrichment tumors. It is a valuable source for cancer researchers, clinicians and other members of biomedical field who wants to learn more about mechanisms to improve outcome of cancer immunotherapies.
