Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are tumor cells that have sloughed off the primary tumor and
extravasate into and circulate in the blood. Understanding of the metastatic cascade of CTCs …

The primary reason for high mortality rates among cancer patients is metastasis, where
tumor cells migrate through the bloodstream from the original site to other parts of the body …

Liquid biopsy is a convenient, fast, non-invasive and reproducible sampling method that can
dynamically reflect the changes in tumor gene expression profile, and provide a robust basis …

Epithelial–mesenchymal transitions (EMTs) generate hybrid phenotypes with an enhanced
ability to adapt to diverse microenvironments encountered during the metastatic spread …

Multifunctional nanoprobes have attracted significant attention in a wide range of disciplines
such as nanomedicine, precision medicine, and cancer diagnosis and treatment. However …

Cancer stem cells (CSCs) have been implicated in cancer recurrence and therapy
resistance. Therefore, a CSC-targeted therapy that disrupts the maintenance and survival of …

Purpose: Expediting the diagnosis of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) would
benefit care management, especially for the start of treatments requiring histological …

Metastases and cancer recurrence are the main causes of cancer death. Circulating Tumor
Cells (CTCs) and disseminated tumor cells are the drivers of cancer cell dissemination. The …

CTCs (circulating tumor cells) are well-known for their use in clinical trials for tumor
diagnosis. Capturing and isolating these CTCs from whole blood samples has enormous …

Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) play a causal role in the development of metastasis, the major
cause of cancer-associated mortality worldwide. In the past decade, the development of …
