Nanopatterned Microfluidic Chip Detects Cancer Markers

The performance of current microfluidic methods for exosome detection is constrained by boundary conditions, as well as fundamental limits to microscale mass transfer and interfacial exosome binding. More...

Liquid Biopsy Proves Effective as Biopsy for NSCLC

Non-small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) is any type of epithelial lung cancer other than small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC). NSCLC accounts for about 85% of all lung cancers. As a class, NSCLCs are relatively insensitive to chemotherapy, compared to small cell carcinoma. More...

New Microfluidics Device Detects Cancer Cells in Blood

The ability to successfully isolate cancer cells is a crucial step in enabling liquid biopsy where cancer could be detected through a simple blood draw. This would eliminate the discomfort and cost of tissue biopsies, which use needles or surgical procedures as part of cancer diagnosis. More...

Blood Test Predicts Kidney Transplant Rejection

A renal transplant offers the best treatment for patients whose kidneys have failed, with around 3,000 carried out annually in the UK. Acute rejection occurs when the body's immune system begins to attack the donated organ. More...

Immunohistochemical Stain Facilitates cHL Diagnosis

Remarkable efforts are underway to exploit classic Hodgkin lymphoma's (cHL) complex interplay of molecular alterations, loss of B-cell programming, and dependency of tumor microenvironment. More...

Cervical Microbes Potentially Tied to Infections and Lesions

Nearly all cervical cancers are causally associated with human papillomavirus (HPV). The burden of HPV-associated dysplasias in sub-Saharan Africa is influenced by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). More...

Genetic Defect Linked to Pediatric Liver Disease

Biliary atresia (BA) is the most common cause of end‐stage liver disease in children and the primary indication for pediatric liver transplantation, yet underlying etiologies remain unknown. More...
