乳腺癌是影响全球妇女的最常见、最令人担忧的疾病之一。许多正在进行的研究都集中在乳腺癌诊断技术的开发上,以识别乳腺肿瘤并确定其特征,从而使医护人员能够确定癌症的分期和类型,并指导治疗决策。在这篇博文中,我们将探讨乳腺癌研究的最新进展,重点是SCIENION的精密喷点技术对乳腺癌诊断和治疗创新的影响。
基因组剖析
乳腺癌研究领域最重要的突破之一是利用基因组剖析技术更好地了解肿瘤的基因状况。基因组图谱分析通过分析癌细胞的DNA来确定驱动肿瘤生长的特定基因突变或改变。基因组图谱分析方法采用下一代测序技术(NGS),这需要精确处理液体以创建测序文库。SCIENION 的 sciFLEXARRAYER 精密微量点样仪以及 Cellenion的单细胞分选和纳升喷点解决方案,cellenONE使DLP+1可扩展单细胞全基因组测序平台的开发成为可能,该平台在预测癌症演变和耐药性方面展现出巨大潜力。通过基因组分析获得的信息可以制定更精确、更个性化的治疗方案,因为某些基因突变对靶向疗法的反应更好。基因组分析还能识别乳腺癌高危人群,从而采取积极的预防措施。
