Early Pancreatic Cancer Detection

Na Sun, Hsian-Rong Tseng, Yazhen Zhu, and colleagues have developed a simple, noninvasive test for early pancreatic cancer detection. Their approach uses click chemistry to capture extracellular vesicles (EVs) released by cancer cells. Once isolated, these cancer EVs are analyzed with a standard PCR machine to measure their mRNA content, providing a promising biomarker for pancreatic cancer. More details can be found in article number 2414982.
