Tuesday, May 4, 2021

Though circulating tumor cells technology is still under research phase but used for the prognosis of several cancer forms including, breast, melanoma, lung, colon, pancreas, and glioblastoma.\nIn the future, doctors would have a better chance of fighting cancer via liquid biopsies, and researchers would detect circulating tumor cells before any metastatic growth happens.

Key Points: 
  • Though circulating tumor cells technology is still under research phase but used for the prognosis of several cancer forms including, breast, melanoma, lung, colon, pancreas, and glioblastoma.\nIn the future, doctors would have a better chance of fighting cancer via liquid biopsies, and researchers would detect circulating tumor cells before any metastatic growth happens.
  • Currently, circulating tumor cell-based screening and analysis are at a nascent market stage.
  • The market dominance of cell-free DNA units over circulating tumor cells in cancer diagnosis has led to less share in clinical applications.
  • This high market growth is due to the fact that most of the products currently being on the market are primarily designed for research settings.

Monday, March 22, 2021

Metastasisthe spreading of cancer cells from the initial tumor site to surrounding tissues and distant organsis responsible for the vast majority of cancer deaths.

Key Points: 
  • Metastasisthe spreading of cancer cells from the initial tumor site to surrounding tissues and distant organsis responsible for the vast majority of cancer deaths.
  • In an ongoing co-development research program, Avalon and the laboratory of Dr. Shuguang Zhang at MITs Media Lab have developed a novel approach to potentially block the signals that cancer cells require to metastasize in order to prevent cancer spread and death.
  • Avalon and MIT researchers are also working on a second approachcombining the QTY technology with the CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing system to re-program cell types that typically stimulate nearby cancer cells to spread, thereby deterring cancer metastasis.
  • This new endeavor builds on our collaboration with MIT using the QTY code technology to develop innovative therapies for cancer metastasis, stated David Jin, M.D., Ph.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of Avalon.

Kanazawa University research: Going the distance--insights into how cancer cells spread

Retrieved on: 
Monday, February 8, 2021

Genetic mutations found only in some of these cells are known to aid with the spread and progression of cancer.

Key Points: 
  • Genetic mutations found only in some of these cells are known to aid with the spread and progression of cancer.
  • To replicate polyclonal metastasis, AP cells were then co-transplanted with AKTP cells, and voila, both cell types indeed moved into the livers.
  • Instead, when AP cells were injected into the blood (without prior exposure to the AKTP cells) they could not metastasize.
  • Next, AKTP cells within the liver tumors were killed to see how closely that affected the AP cells.
