Abstract

© 2024 The Authors. Leukemia niche impacts quiescence; however, culturing patient-derived samples ex vivo is technically challenging. Here, we present a protocol for in vitro co-culture of patient-derived xenograft acute lymphoblastic leukemia (PDX-ALL) cells with human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). We describe steps for labeling PDX-ALL cells with CellTrace Violet dye to demonstrate MSC-primed PDX-ALL cycling. We then detail procedures to identify MSC-primed G0/quiescent PDX-ALL cells via Hoechst-33342/Pyronin Y live cell cycle analysis. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Pal et al.
