Multimodal fusion of liquid biopsy and CT enhances differential diagnosis of early-stage lung adenocarcinoma

Jiancheng Yang, Li Zhang, Jun Lu, Hua Zhong, Yunhua Zhang

This research explores the potential of multimodal fusion for the differential diagnosis of early-stage lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) (tumor sizes < 2 cm). It combines liquid biopsy biomarkers, specifically extracellular vesicle long RNA (evlRNA) and the comp ...

Unveiling breast cancer metastasis through an advanced X-ray imaging approach

Marianne Liebi

Breast cancer is a significant global health burden, causing a substantial number of deaths. Systemic metastatic tumour cell dissemination is a major cause of poor outcomes. Understanding the mechanisms underlying metastasis is crucial for effective interv ...

Elucidating and modulating regulatory pathways so as to reprogram the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment for therapeutic benefit

Agnieszka Alicja Chryplewicz

Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most frequent and highly malignant form of brain cancer. New therapeutic regimens are urgently needed as GBM patients present with a minimal response to currently-approved therapies. The goal of this project is to identify new the ...

Metabolic dependencies of metastasis-initiating cells in breast cancer

Candice Megan T Young

Metastasis is the process by which cancer cells from the primary tumor travel through the blood stream to generate a secondary tumor site in a distant organ. Although very few cells are able to make this journey, the resulting effects are dire since most c ...

Combi-seq for multiplexed transcriptome-based profiling of drug combinations using deterministic barcoding in single-cell droplets

Christoph Merten, Ngoc Hien Du

Anti-cancer therapies often exhibit only short-term effects. Tumors typically develop drug resistance causing relapses that might be tackled with drug combinations. Identification of the right combination is challenging and would benefit from high-content, ...

Development and validation of a multiplex real-time qPCR assay using GMP-grade reagents for leprosy diagnosis

Stewart Cole, Charlotte Avanzi, Thyago Leal Calvo

Author summaryLeprosy is a chronic dermato-neurological disease caused by Mycobacterium leprae, an obligate intracellular bacterium. Diagnosis of leprosy often relies on skin examinations for clinical signs, bacilli staining from skin smears and invasive s ...

Electrochemical imaging of metabolic activity in tissue and biofilms

Sorour Darvishi

Non-invasive and semi-invasive bioimaging is of great interest for the rapid diagnosis and efficient as well as specific treatments of biological systems affecting human health, such as cancer tissue and biofilms. Electrochemical bioimaging is one of the d ...

Rapid Noninvasive Skin Monitoring by Surface Mass Recording and Data Learning

Hubert Girault, Horst Pick, Natalia Gasilova, Andreas Stephan Lesch, Milica Jovic, Yingdi Zhu, Tzu-En Lin

Skin problems are often overlooked due to a lack of robust and patient-friendly monitoring tools. Herein, we report a rapid, noninvasive, and high-throughput analytical chemical methodology, aiming at real-time monitoring of skin conditions and early detec ...

Differential role of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide deficiency in acute and chronic kidney disease

Johan Auwerx, Elena Katsyuba, Adrienne Joëlle Laurence Mottis, Joseph Rutkowski, Renuga Devi Rajaram

Background. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD(+)) is a ubiquitous coenzyme involved in electron transport and a cosubstrate for sirtuin function. NAD(+) deficiency has been demonstrated in the context of acute kidney injury (AKI). Methods. We studied ...

Microfluidic systems for cancer diagnostics

Sebastian Maerkl, Jose Luis Garcia Cordero

Although not employed in the clinic as of yet, microfluidic systems are likely to become a key technology for cancer diagnostics and prognosis. Microfluidic devices have been developed for the analysis of various biomarkers including circulating tumor cell ...
