Tumor-specific DNA in plasma of breast cancer patients.

Anti-cancer drugs - 1 Apr 2002

Shao Zhi-Ming, Nguyen Mai

Abstract excerpt

The presence of DNA fragments circulating in cancer patients was described a number of years ago. The mere presence of DNA in the circulation is not indicative of cancer. However, there are reports that apoptosis and necrosis of the cancer cells can increase the levels of circulating DNA. The study of plasma DNA with the detection of genetic abnormalities associated with specific cancers has produced some...
