Background: Platelets are active players in hemostasis, coagulation and also tumorigenesis. The cross-talk between platelets and circulating tumor cells (CTCs) may have various pro-cancer effects, including promoting tumor growth, epithelial-mesenchymal ...

Full-Length mRNA-Seq from single cell levels of RNA and individual circulating tumor cells
Genome-wide transcriptome analyses are routinely used to monitor tissue-, disease- and cell type–specific gene expression, but it has been technically challenging to generate expression profiles from single cells.

Application of circulating tumor cells scope technique on circulating tumor cell research [PDF]
Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are becoming promising biomarkers in several cancers, such as colon, prostate, and breast carcinomas. Independent research groups have reported a correlation between CTC numbers and patient prognosis. Even more, the development of personalized medicine gives physicians impetus to utilize the advancement of molecular ...

Liquid Biopsy Analysis as a Tool for TKI-Based Treatment in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
The treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has recently evolved with the introduction of targeted therapy based on the use of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in patients with certain gene alterations, including EGFR, ALK, ROS1, BRAF, and MET ...

Circulating tumor cells: Ready for translation? [PDF]
Circulating tumor cells are tumor-derived pioneers responsible for the metastatic spread of cancer. Here, we outline recent discoveries, challenges, and future trends for circulating tumor cell investigations, arguing that the time is coming for translation of this work into clinical practice.

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

Deterministic Separation of Cancer Cells from Blood at 10 mL/min [PDF]
Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and circulating clusters of cancer and stromal cells have been identified in the blood of patients with malignant cancer and can be used as a diagnostic for disease severity, assess the efficacy of different treatment ...

Niche inheritance: a cooperative pathway to enhance cancer cell fitness though ecosystem engineering [PDF]
Cancer cells can be described as an invasive species that is able to establish itself in a new environment. The concept of niche construction can be utilized to describe the process by which cancer cells terraform their environment, thereby engineering ...
