Blood biomarkers for differential diagnosis and early detection of pancreatic cancer

Abstract: Pancreatic cancer is currently the most lethal tumor entity and case numbers are rising. It will soon be the second most frequent cause of cancer-related death in the Western world. Mortality is close to incidence and patient survival after diagnosis stands at about five months. Blood-based diagnostics could be one crucial factor for improving this dismal situation and is at a stage that could make this possible. Here, we are reviewing the current state of affairs with its problems and promises, looking at var… Show more

“…Finally, the source of plasma-derived Exo-miR-19b is unclear. Besides Pca cells, blood cells, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, endothelial cells, and other cells secrete Exo-miR-19b [4][5][6]. The function of miR-19b or Exo-miR-19b in Pca cells might be not equal to that of plasma-derived Exo-miR-19b in Pca patients.…”

“…The application of liquid biopsy of circulating free DNA, tumor cells, or exosomes for cancer diagnosis has shown promise ( 5 , 6 ), and among these markers, exosomes have been the subject of investigation. Exosomes are small (30–200 nm) vesicular structures that can carry pathogenic miRNAs, lncRNAs, mRNAs, DNA fragments, and proteins ( 7 , 8 ).…”

“…Income and education level are positively correlated with disease cognition, so the highest resource group will participate in cancer screening more actively. Furthermore, many cancer cases are detected only due to screening, possibly also for breast cancer, although to a lesser extent, and that screening may be used more frequently in more a uent communities [31][32][33][34][35]. Differences in total breast cancer incidence may also re ect differences in screening rates rather than actual differences in disease rates.…”
