Label-free isolation of prostate circulating tumor cells using Vortex microfluidic technology. [PDF]

, 2017
There has been increased interest in utilizing non-invasive "liquid biopsies" to identify biomarkers for cancer prognosis and monitoring, and to isolate genetic material that can predict response to targeted therapies. Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) have

Metastasis and circulating tumor cells [PDF]

, 2012
Cancer is a prominent cause of death worldwide. In most cases, it is not the primary tumor which causes death, but the metastases. Metastatic tumors are spread over the entire human body and are more difficult to remove or treat than the primary tumor ...

Transient down-regulation of beta1 integrin subtypes on kidney carcinoma cells is induced by mechanical contact with endothelial cell membranes [PDF]

, 2007
Adhesion molecules of the integrin beta1 family are thought to be involved in the malignant progression renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Still, it is not clear how they contribute to this process.

Correlation of hepatitis C and prostate cancer, inverse correlation of basal cell hyperplasia or prostatitis and epidemic syphilis of unknown duration

International Brazilian Journal of Urology, 2011
PURPOSE: The accuracy of prostate specific antigen (PSA) to detect prostate cancer has not yet been determined. Autopsy evidence suggests one-third of men have evidence of prostate cancer.

Impact of Cryoprobe Density on Hemigland Ablation Prostate-Specific Antigen Outcomes [PDF]

Journal of Urologic Oncology
Purpose Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) value interpretation following primary focal cryotherapy (PFC) for prostate cancer remains a challenge. The purpose of this study is to determine significance of cryoprobe density (CPD), defined as number of ...

Clinical Significance of Prostate-Specific Antigen Density in Patients with Serum Prostate Specific Antigen between 4 and 10ng/ml

Korean Journal of Urology, 2006
Purpose: To examine the usefulness of the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) density for selection of biopsy candidates with serum PSA levels between 4-10ng/ml, and determine the optimal PSA density (PSAD) cut off value for use in clinical practice. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively enrolled 705 patients with serum PSA levels between 4-10ng/ml ...

Advances in multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging combined with biomarkers for the diagnosis of high-grade prostate cancer

Frontiers in Surgery
Clinical decisions based on the test results for prostate-specific antigen often result in overdiagnosis and overtreatment. Multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) can be used to identify high-grade prostate cancer (HGPCa; Gleason score ≥3 + 4)
