Metastasis is considered to be responsible for 90% of cancer-related deaths. Although it is
clinically evident that metastatic patterns vary by primary tumor type, the molecular …

We have developed and optimized a microfluidic device platform for the capture and
analysis of circulating pancreatic cells (CPCs) and pancreatic circulating tumor cells (CTCs) …

Tau protein is a microtubule-associated protein that is widely distributed in the central
nervous system and maintains and regulates neuronal morphology and function. Tau …

Gold nanorods (AuNRs) have attracted considerable attention in plasmonic photothermal
therapy for cancer treatment by exploiting their selective and localized heating effect due to …

Solid tumors, such as triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), are biologically complex due to
cellular heterogeneity, lack of tumor-specific antigens, and an immunosuppressive tumor …

Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDC) are an essential immune microenvironment component.
They have been reported for crucial roles in linking the adaptive and immune systems …

Introduction Invasion of other tissues during bloodborne metastasis in part requires
adhesion of cancer cells to vascular endothelium by specific fluid shear-dependent receptor …

It is well documented that the surfaces of cancer cells, activated platelets and inflammatory
cells are rich in P-selectin. N-(3-hydroxymethyl-β-carboline-1-yl-ethyl-2-yl)-l-Phe (HMCEF) is …

Mucin-type O-glycosylated proteins are known to be related to many pathological diseases,
especially malignancy. Mucins such as CA 27.29, CA 125 and CA 19-9 have been actively …

Galectins and Mac-2 binding protein (Mac-2BP) are some of the most ubiquitous proteins in
the immune system life cycle, aiding in regulation of inflammation, recruitment and adhesion …
