Plasma cfDNA in Glioblastoma—Letter [PDF]
We read enthusiastically the recent article by Bagley and colleagues ([1][1]). The authors prospectively investigated plasma cell-free DNA (cfDNA) concentration and mutations in patients with glioblastoma. This is an interesting topic and we commend the authors for their efforts.

Immunoaging – the effect of age on serum levels of NET biomarkers in men: a pilot study
Objectives The study aimed to evaluate the impact of aging on the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). The impaired formation of NETs is the cause of an abnormal innate immune response.

Diagnostic Value of cfDNA in Pancreatic Cancer
Objective To explore the diagnostic value of cfDNA in pancreatic cancer. Methods A total of 467 patients with pancreatic cancer and 129 healthy controls were enrolled. cfDNA concentration was detected using the QuantiDNA Direct cfDNA Test (DiaCarta) kit.

Investigation of Different Library Preparation and Tissue of Origin Deconvolution Methods for Urine and Plasma cfDNA Methylome Analysis. [PDF]
Methylation sequencing is a promising approach to infer the tissue of origin of cell-free DNA (cfDNA). In this study, a single- and a double-stranded library preparation approach were evaluated with respect to their technical biases when applied on cfDNA

Molecular mechanisms of cfDNA effects [PDF]
The biological role of free circulating DNA is currently being investigated mainly in terms of the etiology of autoimmune conditions and cancer. It appears that the role of cfDNA of nuclear or mitochondrial origin in interacting with receptors of the ...

Cell-free DNA methylome profiling by MBD-seq with ultra-low input
Methylation signatures in cell-free DNA (cfDNA) have shown great sensitivity and specificity in the characterization of tumour status and classification of tumour types, as well as the response to therapy and recurrence. Currently, most cfDNA methylation

Dynamics of methylated cell-free DNA in the urine of non-small cell lung cancer patients
High levels of methylated DNA in urine represent an emerging biomarker for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) detection and are the subject of ongoing research.
