Researcher suggests compounds secreted by high-risk MSCs that are detectable in the bloodstream could act as biomarkers for early-stage ovarian cancer.

Researchers at the University of Pittsburgh have identified a novel trigger of a deadly form of ovarian cancer. Discovery of a subset of high-risk progenitor cells that reside in fallopian tube supportive tissue, or stroma, could pave the way for bet… [6226 chars]
