Abstract

Retroviral transduction is a highly useful tool to genetically engineer hard-to-transfect human primary cells. Here, we transduce human primary T cells with a tumor-specific T cell receptor. This creates a useful tool to analyze T cell–cancer cell interactions, such as cytolysis analysis using xCELLigence technology.
