Abstract
Stable isotope-resolved metabolomics (SIRM) methods are used increasingly by cancer researchers to probe metabolic pathways and identify vulnerabilities in cancer cells. Analytical and computational advances are being made constantly, but tissue culture and sample extraction procedures are often variable and not elaborated in the literature. This chapter discusses basic aspects of tissue culture practices as they relate to the use of stable isotope tracers and provides a detailed metabolic labeling and metabolite extraction procedure designed to maximize the amount of information that can be obtained from a single tracer experiment.
