Abstract excerpt
Most current methods of circulating tumour cell (CTC) enrichment target the epithelial protein EpCAM, which is commonly expressed in adenocarcinoma cells. However, such methods will not recover the fraction of CTCs that have a non-epithelial phenotype due to epithelial-mesenchymal transition. For phenotype-independent CTC enrichment, we developed a new enhanced negative depletion strategy-termed MINDEC-that is...
