Simple Summary Circulating tumour cells (CTCs) are cancer cells shed into the bloodstream
from tumours and their analysis can provide important insights into cancer detection and …

Therapy resistance is a characteristic of cancer cells that significantly reduces the
effectiveness of drugs. Despite the popularity of cisplatin (CP) as a chemotherapeutic agent …

Liquid biopsies hold the potential to inform cancer patient prognosis and to guide treatment
decisions at the time when direct tumor biopsy may be impractical due to its invasive nature …

Magnetic cell separation has become a key methodology for the isolation of target cell
populations from biological suspensions, covering a wide spectrum of applications from …

In the last few decades, the epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) has received
increased attention as the main membrane marker used in many enrichment technologies to …

Over the past decade, cancer diagnosis has expanded to include liquid biopsies in addition
to tissue biopsies. Liquid biopsies can result in earlier and more accurate diagnosis and …

Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are cancer cells shed from either the primary tumor or its
metastases that circulate in the peripheral blood. The CTCs are regarded as the source of …

As an alternative target to surgically resected tissue specimens, liquid biopsy has gained
much attention over the past decade. Of the various circulating biomarkers, circulating tumor …

Extreme rarity and inherent heterogeneity of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) result in a
tremendous challenge for the CTC isolation from patient blood samples with high efficiency …

Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) largely contribute to cancer metastasis and show potential
prognostic significance in cancer isolation and detection. Miniaturization has progressed …
