Liquid Biopsy as a Minimally Invasive Source of Thyroid Cancer Genetic and Epigenetic Alterations
In the blood of cancer patients, some nucleic acid fragments and tumor cells can be found that make it possible to trace tumor changes through a simple blood test called “liquid biopsy”. The main components of liquid biopsy are fragments of DNA and RNA shed by tumors into the bloodstream and circulate freely( ctDNAs and ctRNAs). tumor cells which are shed into the blood (circulating tumor cells...
متن کاملCirculating tumor DNA as a liquid biopsy target for detection of pancreatic cancer
Most pancreatic cancer patients present with advanced metastatic disease, resulting in extremely poor 5-year survival, mainly because of the lack of a reliable modality for early detection and limited therapeutic options for advanced disease. Therefore, there is a need for minimally-invasive diagnostic tools for detecting pancreatic cancer at an early stage, when curative surgery and also novel...
متن کاملExosomes as a platform for ‘liquid biopsy’ in pancreatic cancer
The dismal prognosis of pancreatic cancer has motivated research into identifying non-invasive ‘liquid biopsy’ biomarkers for early detection when treatment is most effective. Recently, exosomes—nanoscale membranous vesicles shed from tumour cells and which can be found circulating in the blood (and most bodily fluids)—have been discovered to contain a wealth of proteomic and genetic informatio...
متن کاملCirculating Tumor Cells and Circulating Tumor DNA Provide New Insights into Pancreatic Cancer
Pancreatic cancer has a rather dismal prognosis mainly due to high malignance of tumor biology. Up to now, the relevant researches on pancreatic cancer lag behind seriously partly due to the obstacles for tissue biopsy, which handicaps the understanding of molecular and genetic features of pancreatic cancer. In the last two decades, liquid biopsy, including circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and ci...
متن کاملBreast metastasis from the pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor origin detected by 99mTc-Octreotate scan
A 50 years old woman with history of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor diagnosed 2 years ago, which has not been surgically removed,was referred to our department for a 99mTc-Octreotate in order to evaluate the somatostatin receptor status. She was treated with regular sandostatin injections and chemotherapy. Her CT scan which was previously performed confirmed lung, adrenal and hepati...
متن کاملLiquid Biopsy in Liquid Tumors
The availability of a minimally invasive patient simple, capable of providing tumor information, represents a valuable clinical tool. The liquid biopsy has the potential to achieve this need. Circulating cell free DNA (ccfDNA), other circulating nucleic acids such as microRNA and circulating tumor cells (CTCs), can be obtained from a peripheral blood sample. Liquid biopsy has been particularly ...
