Quantification of circulating cell‐free DNA in the plasma of cancer patients during radiation therapy
19 Dec 2008
Abstract excerpt
Cell-free plasma DNA is elevated in cancer patients and decreases in response to effective treatments. Consequently, these nucleic acids have potential as new tumor markers. In our current study, we investigated whether the plasma DNA concentrations in patients with cancer are altered during the course of radiation therapy. To first determine the origin of cell-free plasma DNA, plasma samples from mice bearing...
