Scale‐Up of Breast Cancer Stem Cell Aggregate Cultures to Suspension Bioreactors

It has been hypothesized that breast tumor formation results from the activity of a scarce population of cells known as Breast Cancer Stem Cells (BrCSCs) and that the development of effective breast cancer therapies may therefore ultimately rely upon the ability to effectively target these cells for eradication. The scarcity of BrCSCs in vivo severely compromises research on these populations, as analyses are restricted to those requiring small …
