Protein-Based Diagnostic Biomarkers for Cancer: Where Are We Now?
While significant progression has been made in cancer therapeutics, the disease remains a serious health risk. The lack of commercially available diagnostic biomarkers hinders accurate early cancer diagnosis which could otherwise save many lives. Protein-based biomarkers have demonstrated the potential...
