Journal ArticleDOI

Biology and clinical relevance of EpCAM.

TL;DR: The current knowledge on the biological properties of EpCAM is summarized with emphasis on mechanisms involved in cancer progression and the clinical implications of these findings for the clinical use ofEpCAM as a diagnostic marker are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Accession of Tumor Heterogeneity by Multiplex Transcriptome Profiling of Single Circulating Tumor Cells

TL;DR: Multimarker RNA profiling of single CTCs reveals distinct CTC subsets and provides important insights into gene regulatory networks relevant for cancer progression and therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dual Roles of the Transcription Factor Grainyhead-like 2 (GRHL2) in Breast Cancer

TL;DR: Interestingly, expression of GRHL2 is directly suppressed by the transcription factor zinc finger enhancer-binding protein 1 (ZEB1), suggesting that the EMT transcription factors GRHL 2 and ZEB1 form a double negative regulatory feedback loop in breast cancer cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prognostic Relevance of Circulating Tumor Cells in Blood and Disseminated Tumor Cells in Bone Marrow of Patients with Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Oral Cavity

TL;DR: Both DTCs and CTCs are independent prognostic markers in patients with OSCC, predicting relapse with higher sensitivity at various disease stages than routine staging procedures.
Journal ArticleDOI

Liquid biopsies: Potential and challenges.

TL;DR: This work focuses on the most prominent LB markers, circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and circulating tumor‐derived DNA (ctDNA), in the blood of patients with breast, prostate, lung and colorectal cancer, as the four most frequent tumor types in Europe.
