EMT‐associated bias in the Parsortix® system observed with pancreatic cancer cell lines
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.The Parsortix® system was tested for CTC enrichment using pancreatic cancer cell lines with different EMT phenotypes. Spike‐in experiments showed lower recovery of mesenchymal‐like cells. This was confirmed with an EMT‐inducible breast cancer cell line.

Development and Initial Validation of a Questionnaire to Measure Health-Related Quality of Life of Adults with Common Variable Immune Deficiency: The CVID_QoL Questionnaire. [PDF]
, 2016 BACKGROUND: Generic health status quality of life (QoL) instruments have been used in patients with common variable immune deficiency (CVID). However, by their nature, these tools may over- or underestimate the impact of diseases on an individual's QoL.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.This study presents a novel AI‐based diagnostic approach—comprehensive serum glycopeptide spectra analysis (CSGSA)—that integrates tumor markers and enriched glycopeptides from serum. Using a neural network model, this method accurately distinguishes liver and pancreatic cancers from healthy individuals.

Gut alterations in a chronic kidney disease rat model with diet‐induced vascular calcification
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients often suffer from intestinal and/or mineral and bone disorders. Using a rat model, we showed that uremic vascular calcification is associated with gut barrier alterations (decreased gut mucus production and Nlrp6 gene expression, increased gut inflammation), and plasma retention of gut‐origin uremic toxins (indoxyl

Development of 4T1 breast cancer mouse model system for preclinical carbonic anhydrase IX studies
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Carbonic anhydrase IX (CAIX) is a well‐recognised therapeutic target and prognostic biomarker in cancer. We developed and characterised a robust murine breast cancer model system that is suitable for CAIX studies in vitro and in vivo—it comprises both CAIX‐positive and CAIX‐negative controls and provides a solid platform for the comprehensive ...

Phenotyping Healthcare Use 2–3 Decades Before the First Multiple Sclerosis Demyelinating Event
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Phenotype hospital, physician, and emergency department (ED) visits by diagnoses and specialty up to 29 years pre‐multiple sclerosis (MS) onset versus a matched population without MS. Methods We identified people with MS (PwMS) using population‐based administrative data from Ontario, Canada (1991–2020).
