Circulating Tumor Cells, or CTCs, are cancer cells that have shed from the primary tumor and enter the bloodstream, where they can travel and potentially lead to metastasis. These cells are of significant interest in oncology due to their potential to provide vital information about the tumor’s characteristics and behavior. One of the advanced techniques used to analyze CTCs is Fluorescence ...
Abstract Objective: Vascular conduit is essential for arterial reconstruction for a number of conditions, including trauma and atherosclerotic occlusive disease. We have developed a tissue-engineered human acellular vessel (HAV) that can be manufactured, stored on site at hospitals, and be immediately available for arterial vascular reconstruction. Although the HAV is acellular when implanted, ...

Abstract Objective: To evaluate an epigenetic assay performed on tissue from negative prostate biopsies in a group of African American (AA) men undergoing repeat biopsy, and to compare accuracy for predicting repeat biopsy outcome to prior studies conducted in predominantly Caucasian populations. Materials and methods: The study population consisted of 211 AA men from 7 urology centers ...
Inorganic elements from anthropogenic sources have entered marine environments worldwide and are detectable in marine organisms, including sea turtles. Threatened and endangered classifications of sea turtles have heretofore made assessments of contaminant concentrations difficult due to regulatory restrictions on obtaining samples using non‐lethal techniques. In the present study, claw and ...
