Perspectives on the Functional Characterization and In Vitro Maintenance of Circulating Tumor Cells [PDF]
Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) that detach and migrate from primary tumors are implicated in the metastatic spread of cancer. The identification of CTCs in peripheral blood samples has been associated with poor survival outcomes in various cancer types ...

Liquid Biopsy: Detection of Circulating Tumor Cells in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma [PDF]
Circulating tumor cells (CTC) harvested in the blood of patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) are associated with certain clinical pathological parameters as well as patients’ prognosis and response to chemoradiation.

Circulating Tumor Cell and Cell-free Circulating Tumor DNA in Lung Cancer [PDF]
Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are tumor cells that are separated from the primary site or metastatic lesion and disseminate in blood circulation. CTCs are considered to be part of the long process of cancer metastasis. As a 'liquid biopsy', CTC molecular examination and investigation of single cancer cells create an important opportunity for providing

Reduction of circulating cholesterol and apolipoprotein levels during sepsis [PDF]
Sepsis with multiple organ failure is frequently associated with a substantial decrease of cholesterol levels. This decrease of cholesterol is strongly associated with mortality suggesting a direct relation between inflammatory conditions and altered ...

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 ...

The Phenotype of Circulating Follicular-Helper T Cells in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis Defines CD200 as a Potential Therapeutic Target [PDF]
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic autoimmune disease primarily affecting synovial joints in which the development of autoantibodies represents a failure of normal tolerance mechanisms, suggesting a role for follicular helper T cells (TFH) in the ...

EpCAM-Expressing Circulating Tumor Cells in Colorectal Cancer
Background Several studies have raised the issue of the inadequacy of CellSearch ® to detect the entire pool of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) from blood of cancer patients, suggesting that cells expressing low levels of epithelial cell adhesion molecule

Circulating Tumor Cells in the Adenocarcinoma of the Esophagus [PDF]
Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are elements of indisputable significance as they seem to be responsible for the onset of metastasis. Despite this, research into CTCs and their clinical application have been hindered by their rarity and heterogeneity at the molecular and cellular level, and also by a lack of technical standardization.
