Excited to share a recent preprint by Oliver Newsom, where we evaluate the functional contributions of serum for cancer cell proliferation. Inside:
A broadly applicable serum-free media,
Quantitative lipid uptake characterization,
Evidence lipid scavenging > synthesis for cancer cell proliferation.
Defined media reveals the essential role of lipid scavenging to support cancer cell proliferation https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.02.12.637975v1
