"Transplantation experiments" refers to scientific procedures in which organs, tissues, or cells from one organism are transferred or implanted into another organism to observe their effect on the recipient's body. Full definition
In collaboration with Dr. Kristin Stanford, assistant professor of physiology and cell biology at Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, the research team carried out brown fat transplantation experiments in mice. (sciencedaily.com)
We then painstakingly followed the development of each individual clone in vitro through serial passaging and, for several clones, we also carried out serial tumor transplantation experiments (Fig. 1A; see below). (cancerres.aacrjournals.org)
Because tumor regeneration in serial transplantation experiments is the current gold standard for defining CSCs (31, 34), our results suggest that PC3 holoclones contain putative CSCs. (cancerres.aacrjournals.org)
