The importance of circulating tumor products as „liquid biopsies” in colorectal cancer [PDF]
Liquid biopsies represent an array of plasma analysis tests that are studied to evaluate and identify circulating tumor products, especially circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA).

Cell-free DNA methylation as liquid biopsy for the assessment of fibrosis in patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis: a gap between innovation and implementation [PDF]
The presence of cfDNA in the circulating compartment was demonstrated three decades ago , leading to the emergence of liquid biopsy.However, the implementation of cfDNA methylation as a non-invasive molecular tool for the diagnosis of fibrosis imposes ...

Impact of sitagliptin on endometrial mesenchymal stem-like progenitor cells : a randomised, double-blind placebo-controlled feasibility trial [PDF]
Background: Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) is associated with the loss of endometrial mesenchymal stem-like progenitor cells (eMSC). DPP4 inhibitors may increase homing and engraftment of bone marrow-derived cells to sites of tissue injury.
