Potential role of circulating tumor cells and cell-free DNA as biomarkers in oral squamous cell carcinoma: A prospective single-center study.

PLoS ONE
Metastasis in patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma has been associated with a poor prognosis. However, sensitive and reliable tests for monitoring their occurrence are unavailable, with the exception of PET-CT. Circulating tumor cells and cell-free

Detection of FAM172A expressed in circulating tumor cells is a feasible method to predict high-risk subgroups of colorectal cancer

Tumor Biology, 2017
Previous studies used to enumerate circulating tumor cells to predict prognosis and therapeutic effect of colorectal cancer. However, increasing studies have shown that only circulating tumor cells enumeration was not enough to reflect the heterogeneous ...

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Denosumab treatment is associated with the absence of circulating tumor cells in patients with breast cancer

Breast Cancer Research, 2018
Background The presence of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in patients with breast cancer correlates to a bad prognosis. Yet, CTCs are detectable in only a minority of patients with progressive breast cancer, and factors that influence the abundance of ...

Effect of Change in Circulating Tumor Cell Counts in Predicting Postoperative Recurrence and Metastasis of Localized Renal Carcinoma

Zhongliu Fangzhi Yanjiu, 2020
Objective To explore the role of the change in circulating tumor cell counts in predicting the recurrence and metastasis of localized renal cancer after partial nephrectomy. Methods The included 41 patients were divided into positive(n=23) and negative(n=

What information could the main actors of liquid biopsy provide? A representative case of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) [PDF]

, 2018
In non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), there is a consensus regarding the use of liquid biopsy, generally, to detect "druggable" mutations and, in particular, to monitor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) treatments. However, whether circulating tumor cells

Circular RNA expression landscapes in myelodysplastic neoplasms: Associations with mutational signatures and disease progression

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In this explorative study, the abundance of circular RNA molecules in bone marrow stem cells was found to be elevated in patients with high‐risk myelodysplastic neoplasms, and to be associated with an increased risk of progression to acute myeloid leukemia.

Current Methods of Circulating Tumor Cell Detection

The Korean Journal of Helicobacter and Upper Gastrointestinal Research, 2018
Liquid biopsy, the analysis of circulating biomarkers from peripheral blood, such as circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and circulating tumor DNA, and exosomes, offers a less invasive, new source of cancer-derived materials that may reflect the status of the

Impact of chronic exposure to bevacizumab on EpCAM-based detection of circulating tumor cells [PDF]

, 2015
BACKGROUND: Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are often undetected through the immunomagnetic epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM)-based CellSearch(®) System in breast and colorectal cancer (CRC) patients treated with bevacizumab (BEV), where low ...
