Description

Grazia Scandura and co-authors spin cancer cells in electric fields to read their character without labels, in this 2026 study. Multiple myeloma grows from plasma cells whose membranes remodel as the disease varies, and those changes alter how cells turn in a rotating field. The team built a custom electrorotation platform and tested three myeloma cell lines with distinct metabolic profiles.

The spin readings separated lines that differ in stress-pathway activity and in sensitivity to a staple myeloma drug family. The authors offer the method as a cheap, label-free layer for profiling tumor cells.
