Expansion of CIK Cells from HCC Patients

We collected PBMCs samples form adult HCC patients for the expansion of CIK cells. All of the HCCs were diagnosed by cytological or pathological evaluations, or according to the criteria of the American Association for the Study of Liver Disease [27 (link)]. We excluded patients with severe alcoholic hepatitis or acute or chronic liver failure, non-HBV, HCV, or alcohol-related HCC, and patients with concurrent evidence of sepsis.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
