geneticist Dr. Gazanfer Belge from the University of Bremen demonstrated the effectiveness of this marker in eleven patients with testicular cancer. 37 European Clinics Involved Even though a first step [...] high efficacy of the biomarker named miR-371-3p: “From a practitioner’s point of view, the new tumor marker is an important tool in the aftercare of testicular cancer patients.” Due to the renewed positive [...] joined the team of the young start-up miRdetect GmbH, which plans to market the new serous tumor marker for testicular cancer. The company was founded with the help of existing federal funding by the former

The aftercare [...] testicular cancer patients calls for continuous monitoring via computer tomography. The new tumor marker could replace the CT examinations and cause a significant reduction in the radiation patients are

Research Findings Suggest Marker Development The results of the research carried out by the Bremen working group now allow for the [...] which degenerative neurological diseases such as Alzheimer’s start. “For example, one could develop a marker that allows for the inference of whether the degeneration has already started or not,” states the
– for instance, it could happen that patients are refused an innovative therapy because no such markers are present. Biomarkers are also the objective of gene tests available from chemists. Here, too,
oxides have a very short life (hours) compared to C02 (decades). They are therefore good tracers or markers that when used together with a newly developed filter technology allow the signal caused by the CO2
