- Abstract
Detects circulating cancer cells using reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction for cytokeratin (CK) messenger RNA in peripheral blood from patients with gastric cancer. CK 19 and CK 20 detection in five out of 52 patients; Possibility of CK 19 and CK 20 to be used as markers for cancer cells in peripheral blood; Effectiveness of CK 19 and 20 in cancer cells detection.
