Cell-free circulating tumor DNA in cancer.
Cancer is a common cause of death worldwide. Despite significant advances in cancer treatments, the morbidity and mortality are still enormous. Tumor heterogeneity, especially intratumoral heterogeneity, is a significant reason underlying difficulties in tumor treatment and failure of a number of current therapeutic modalities, even of molecularly targeted therapies. The development of a virtua...
متن کاملCell - free DNA: بیومارکر نوین تشخیص آزمایشگاهی
به انواع مختلف اسیدهای نوکلئیک آزاد در پلاسما شامل قطعات DNA ژنومی،DNA میتوکندریایی، DNA و mRNA های ویروسی و همچنین انواع miRNA اصطلاحا Cell–free nucleic acid گفته می شود. بخش مهمی از این اسیدهای نوکلئیک آزاد در پلاسما را Cell–free DNA (cfDNA) تشکیل می دهد. cfDNA به صورت قطعاتی با وزن مولکولی حدود KB 21-0.18 در سرم یا پلاسمای افراد سالم و افراد مبتلا به بسیاری از بیماری ها قابل تشخیص هستند. ...
متن کاملSNPase-ARMS qPCR: Ultrasensitive Mutation-Based Detection of Cell-Free Tumor DNA in Melanoma Patients
Cell-free circulating tumor DNA in the plasma of cancer patients has become a common point of interest as indicator of therapy options and treatment response in clinical cancer research. Especially patient- and tumor-specific single nucleotide variants that accurately distinguish tumor DNA from wild type DNA are promising targets. The reliable detection and quantification of these single-base D...
متن کاملCirculating Tumor Cell and Cell-free Circulating Tumor DNA in Lung Cancer
Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are tumor cells that are separated from the primary site or metastatic lesion and disseminate in blood circulation. CTCs are considered to be part of the long process of cancer metastasis. As a 'liquid biopsy', CTC molecular examination and investigation of single cancer cells create an important opportunity for providing an understanding of cancer biology and the...
متن کاملTranspulmonary thermodilution: advantages and limits
BACKGROUND For complex patients in the intensive care unit or in the operating room, many questions regarding their haemodynamic management cannot be answered with simple clinical examination. In particular, arterial pressure allows only a rough estimation of cardiac output. Transpulmonary thermodilution is a technique that provides a full haemodynamic assessment through cardiac output and othe...
