| Using the circulating tumor cell (CTC)-iChip to purify CTCs from pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma patients for RNA-seq characterization, scientists identified three major correlated gene sets, with stemness genes LIN28B/KLF4, WNT5A, and LGALS3 enriched in each correlated gene set; only LIN28B CTC expression was prognostic.
