Exploring the cell-free total RNA transcriptome in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and primary mediastinal B-cell lymphoma patients as biomarker source in blood plasma liquid biopsies Ghent University
Introduction: Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and primary mediastinal B-cell lymphoma (PMBCL) are aggressive histological subtypes of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Improved understanding of the underlying molecular pathogenesis has led to new classification and risk stratification tools, including the development of cell-free biomarkers through liquid biopsies. The goal of this study was to investigate cell-free RNA (cfRNA) biomarkers in DLBCL ...
Candidate RNA biomarkers in biofluids for early diagnosis of ovarian cancer : a systematic review Ghent University
Non coding RNA molecules as potential biomarkers in breast cancer Ghent University
RNA biomarkers from proximal liquid biopsy for diagnosis of ovarian cancer KU Leuven Ghent University
BACKGROUND: Most ovarian cancer patients are diagnosed at an advanced stage and have a high mortality rate. Current screening strategies fail to improve prognosis because markers that are sensitive for early stage disease are lacking. This medical need justifies the search for novel approaches using utero-tubal lavage as a proximal liquid biopsy. METHODS: In this study, we explore the extracellular transcriptome of utero-tubal lavage fluid ...
Searching for liquid RNA biomarkers for esophageal adenocarcinoma Ghent University
In the past decades the incidence of esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) has increased dramatically in most Western populations. Due to the lack of symptoms EAC is often detected in a late stage, contributing to a poor 5-year survival rate. The potential of RNA (coding and miRNA) as circulating biomarker in blood has already been shown for many cancer entities but requires further investigation for EAC. In this study we aim to identify diagnostic ...
Peripheral blood RNA biomarkers for cardiovascular disease from bench to bedside: a position paper from the EU-CardioRNA COST action CA17129 KU Leuven
Despite significant advances in the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases, recent calls have emphasized the unmet need to improve precision-based approaches in cardiovascular disease. Although some studies provide preliminary evidence of the diagnostic and prognostic potential of circulating coding and non-coding RNAs, the complex RNA biology and lack of standardization have hampered the translation of these markers into clinical ...
Micro RNA in Semen/Urine from Non-Obstructive Azoospermia Patients as Biomarkers to Predict the Presence of Testicular Spermatozoa and Spermatogonia Vrije Universiteit Brussel
About half of testicular sperm extraction (TESE) procedures in men with non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA), including men with Klinefelter syndrome (KS), are unsuccessful. To avoid unnecessary invasive surgery, biomarkers for spermatozoa were studied. In addition, markers for spermatogonia in testis tissue were explored. This study aimed to find biomarkers in the semen and/or urine of NOA patients to predict the presence of spermatogonia in the ...
