A novel microfluidic platform for size and deformability based separation and the subsequent molecular characterization of viable circulating tumor cells
Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) were introduced as biomarkers more than 10 years ago, but capture of viable CTCs at high purity from peripheral blood of cancer patients is still a major technical challenge. Here, we report a novel microfluidic platform designed for marker independent capture of CTCs. The Parsortix™ cell separation system provides size and deformability-based enrichment with auto...
متن کاملCirculating Tumor Cells: A Review of Non-EpCAM-Based Approaches for Cell Enrichment and Isolation.
BACKGROUND Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are biomarkers for noninvasively measuring the evolution of tumor genotypes during treatment and disease progression. Recent technical progress has made it possible to detect and characterize CTCs at the single-cell level in blood. CONTENT Most current methods are based on epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) detection, but numerous studies have ...
متن کاملIsolation of circulating tumor cells in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma using a novel cell separation strategy.
PURPOSE To establish a sensitive and specific isolation and enumeration system for circulating tumor cells (CTC) in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN HCC cells were bound by biotinylated asialofetuin, a ligand of asialoglycoprotein receptor, and subsequently magnetically labeled by antibiotin antibody-coated magnetic beads, followed by magnetic separation. Isol...
متن کاملHigh purity microfluidic sorting and analysis of circulating tumor cells: towards routine mutation detection.
A new generation of the Ephesia cell capture technology optimized for CTC capture and genetic analysis is presented, characterized in depth and compared with the CellSearch system as a reference. This technology uses magnetic particles bearing tumour-cell specific EpCAM antibodies, self-assembled in a regular array in a microfluidic flow cell. 48,000 high aspect-ratio columns are generated usin...
متن کاملAn overview of therapeutic approaches to brain tumor stem cells
Primary and secondary malignant central nervous system (CNS) tumors are devastating invasive tumors able to give rise to many kinds of differentiated tumor cells. Glioblastoma multiform (GBM), is the most malignant brain tumor, in which its growth and persistence depend on cancer stem cells with enhanced DNA damage repair program that also induces recurrence and resists current chemo- and radi...
