A comprehensive characterization of cfRNA

This Nature Communications article presents a groundbreaking study on cell-free RNA (cfRNA) as a novel biomarker for cancer detection. The researchers comprehensively characterized cfRNA in both cancer and non-cancer patients, leading to the discovery of so-called "dark channel biomarker" (DCB) genes.

Pioneering Detection of Tumor Messenger RNA in Melanoma

A landmark 1999 study by Kopreski et al. published in Clinical Cancer Research demonstrated the detection of tumor messenger RNA in the serum of patients with malignant melanoma. The researchers successfully demonstrated the presence of amplifiable human mRNA, specifically tyrosinase mRNA, in the serum of melanoma patients, a significant finding given the presumed instability of mRNA in blood.
