| Clinical significance: |
elevated circNFIX level in plasma/blood of glioma patient(s) compared with control; proposed for early revelation of cancer in humans |
| Description: |
This study uses SOI nanoribbon biosensor chips to detect human circNFIX (hsa_circ_0005660) in plasma and reports higher circNFIX levels in glioma patient plasma than in control samples, supporting its potential as a liquid-biopsy biomarker for early glioma detection. The paper also notes a reported association of circNFIX with glioma cell proliferation via miR-34a-5p. |
