Gene expression profiling of circulating tumor cells and peripheral blood mononuclear cells from breast cancer patients
10 Dec 2015
Abstract excerpt
Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are cancer cells that are released from a tumor into the bloodstream. The presence of CTCs in peripheral blood has been associated with metastasis formation in patients with breast cancer. Therefore, the molecular characterization of CTCs may improve diagnostics and support treatment decisions. We performed gene expression profiling to evaluate the enriched CTCs and peripheral blood...
