  1. 1. Circulating platelets : a novel liquid biopsy source for cancer diagnostics and therapy stratification

    Författare :Lee-Ann Tjon-Kon-Fat; Jonas Nilsson; Pernilla Wikström; Michiel Pegtel; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; platelets; biomarkers; liquid biopsy; therapy stratification; personalised medicine; Prostate cancer;

    Sammanfattning : As conventional tissue biopsies have several drawbacks, much effort has been directed toward the development of minimal-invasive liquid biopsy platforms for detecting and profiling cancer.Platelets are the second most abundant cells in blood and have very versatile functions both in physiological and pathophysiological conditions.

  3. 2. Ultrasensitive DNA sequencing using liquid biopsies enables precision medicine

    Författare :Gustav Johansson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Liquid biopsy; cell-free DNA; immune repertoire; next-generation sequencing; unique molecule identifier; GIST; γδ T cell;

    Sammanfattning : Liquid biopsies are minimally invasive and allow repetitive sampling of body fluids. Analysis of cell-free tumor DNA in liquid biopsies can be used as a biomarker for cancer. However, in most clinically relevant liquid biopsies, cell-free DNA is present at low concentrations, contains minute tumor allele frequencies, and is highly fragmented. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Next generation molecular diagnostics using ultrasensitive sequencing

    Författare :Stefan Filges; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Liquid biopsy; cell-free DNA; circulating tumor DNA; molecular diagnostics; next-generation sequencing; unique molecular identifiers; melanoma;

    Sammanfattning : Massively parallel sequencing enables the exploration of the genetic heterogeneity within microbial, viral and tumor cell populations. Detecting circulating tumor DNA in blood and other body fluids has the potential to revolutionize molecular diagnostics. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Ultrasensitive Molecular Monitoring of Breast Cancer and Acute Myeloid Leukemia

    Författare :Yilun Chen; Translational Oncogenomics; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Breast cancer; AML; PTEN; PI3K; Liquid biopsy; Sequencing; cfDNA; ctDNA; Structural variants; Mammography; CTC; Mutation detection; IBSAFE; MRD;

    Sammanfattning : Cancer is the common name to a group of biologically diverse malignant neoplastic diseases. Approximately 18 million people are diagnosed with cancer annually and 8.8 million patients die from it. Tumorigenesis and progression of cancer are driven by alterations in the cancer cell genome.

  7. 5. Liquid biopsies in pediatric oncology : towards clinical implementation

    Författare :Cecilia Arthur; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : During the last few years, liquid biopsies based on cell-free DNA (cfDNA) have become approved for clinical use in several areas of adult oncology. Due to the minimally invasive nature of this procedure, liquid biopsies could serve many purposes in childhood oncology as well. LÄS MER
