A blood exchange method to study circulation kinetics of tumor cells in the blood
Blood is an essential compartment for tumor cell trafficking. In solid epithelial-derived tumors, blood serves as the major vehicle for metastasis, whose principal cell is the circulating tumor cell (CTC). These cells originate from the primary tumor and are shed at low concentrations into the blood...
