Hardback. Editor(s): Magbanua, Mark Jesus; Park, John. Series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology. Num Pages: 314 pages, 5 black & white illustrations, 36 colour illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: MJCL. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155. .
Numerous studies have shown that elevated levels of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in blood of cancer patients are associated with poor response to treatment and inferior survival probabilities. Despite this clinical significance, the molecular biology of CTCs remains poorly understood. The paucity in molecular information can be attributed to the tremendous technical challenges involved in isolating these extremely rare cells. Recent technological advancements in rare-cell technology, however, have allowed for the reliable enrichment and isolation of CTCs. Consequently, the use of recently developed molecular approaches —e.g., multiplexed QPCR, microarray, and next generation sequencing analyses— to profile CTCs have provided novel ... Read more
