In this protocol, we describe how to generate 3D culture surrogates of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and multiple myeloma (MM) bone marrow microenvironments. We detail the use of culturing scaffolds populated with BM stromal cells and tumor cells in the RCCS™ bioreactor. This 3D culture can efficiently recapitulate tumor-stroma crosstalk and allows the testing of drugs such as ibrutinib and bortezomib. Moreover, this protocol can be used for the generation of other and more complex tumor microenvironments. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Belloni et al. (2018) and Barbaglio et al. (2021).

Abstract

In this protocol, we describe how to generate 3D culture surrogates of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and multiple myeloma (MM) bone marrow microenvironments. We detail the use of culturing scaffolds populated with BM stromal cells and tumor cells in the RCCS™ bioreactor. This 3D culture can efficiently recapitulate tumor-stroma crosstalk and allows the testing of drugs such as ibrutinib and bortezomib. Moreover, this protocol can be used for the generation of other and more complex tumor microenvironments. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Belloni et al. (2018) and Barbaglio et al. (2021).
