Recent Update Roles of Magnetic Nanoparticles in Circulating Tumor Cell (CTC)/Non-CTC Separation [PDF]

Pharmaceutics, 2023
Metastasis of cancer is a major cause of death worldwide. Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are important in the metastatic process of cancer. CTCs are able to circulate in the bloodstream. Therefore, they can be used as biomarkers of metastasis.

Circulating Tumor Cell Count Can Be a Useful Prognostic Factor in Lung Resection via Cardiopulmonary Bypass

Case Reports in Oncology, 2017
Tumor resection with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) remains controversial in the field of oncology. Here, we present a 57-year-old male patient with locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma.

Novel approaches in cancer management with circulating tumor cell clusters [PDF]

Journal of Science: Advanced Materials and Devices, 2019
Tumor metastasis is responsible for the vast majority of cancer-associated morbidities and mortalities. Recent studies have disclosed the higher metastatic potential of circulating tumor cell (CTC) clusters than single CTCs.

Progress in Circulating Tumor Cell Research Using Microfluidic Devices

Micromachines, 2018
Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are a popular topic in cancer research because they can be obtained by liquid biopsy, a minimally invasive procedure with more sample accessibility than tissue biopsy, to monitor a patient’s condition.

Combined analysis of preoperative circulating tumor cells status and tumor size to guide width of resection margin for solitary hepatocellular carcinoma [PDF]

Frontiers in Oncology
BackgroundThe optimal resection margin width for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains controversial. The purpose of this study was to explore the value of preoperative circulating tumor cells (CTCs) status and tumor size in guiding the resection margin

ICAM1 initiates CTC cluster formation and trans-endothelial migration in lung metastasis of breast cancer

Nature Communications, 2021
Circulating tumor cell (CTC) clusters are more efficient at mediating metastasis as compared to single cells and are associated with poor prognosis in breast cancer.

Clinical application of circulating tumor cells in gastric cancer: advances and prospects [PDF]

Zhenduanxue lilun yu shijian, 2023
Malignant tumors seriously threat the health of the Chinese population. Circulating tumor cell (CTC), as molecular markers in liquid biopsy, have the advantage of being non-invasive and longitudinal monitoring of tumor progression and efficacy.

Circulating tumor cells in head and neck cancer: A review

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, 2016
Carcinoma of the head and neck represents 3.5% of all cancers, and the vast majority of these tumors are squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). With a stable overall survival rate of 50% among all stages, there is continued interested in developing measures ...
