Journal ArticleDOI

Expression of Extracellular Matrix Metalloproteases Inducer on Micrometastatic and Primary Mammary Carcinoma Cells

TL;DR: EMMPRin expression in primary tumor predicts an unfavorable prognosis in breast cancer, suggesting a crucial role of EMMPRIN in progression of human mammary carcinomas.
Journal ArticleDOI

Diagnostic potential of PTEN-targeting miR-214 in the blood of breast cancer patients

TL;DR: In this article, the diagnostic potential of circulating cell-free microRNAs targeting PTEN in breast cancer was examined on pre-operative serum samples of 102 patients with early breast cancer and a subset of 34 post-operative samples, as well as of 32 patients with benign breast disease and 53 healthy women.
Journal ArticleDOI

A novel microfluidic platform for size and deformability based separation and the subsequent molecular characterization of viable circulating tumor cells

TL;DR: The epitope independent Parsortix™ system enables the isolation of viable CTCs at a very high purity and will help to broaden research into the mechanisms of cancer as well as facilitating the use of C TCs as “liquid biopsies.”
Journal Article

MAGE-A Gene Expression Pattern in Primary Breast Cancer

TL;DR: A preferential expression of MAGE-A is observed in patients at a higher risk of recurrence: those harboring tumors with high levels of the protease urokinase-type plasminogen activator and its inhibitors, high score of the Ki-67 proliferation antigen, and lesser degree of differentiation.
Journal Article

Detection and Clinical Implications of Early Systemic Tumor Cell Dissemination in Breast Cancer

TL;DR: The existing tumor cell assays are reviewed and their current clinical relevance and perspectives for the clinical management of breast cancer patients are discussed.
