Oncogenic alteration of the cholesterol synthesis pathway is a recognized mechanism of metabolic adaptation. In the present review, we focus on squalene epoxidase (SE), one of the two rate-limiting enzymes in cholesterol synthesis, retracing its history since its discovery as an antimycotic target to its description as an emerging metabolic...

Introduction: Standard procedures aimed at the early diagnosis of breast cancer (BC) present suboptimal accuracy and imply the execution of invasive and sometimes unnecessary tissue biopsies. The assessment of circulating biomarkers for diagnostic purposes, together with radiomics, is of great potential in BC management. Methods and analysis:...

One of the limitations for the implementation of liquid biopsy in clinical practice is the lack of shared and reproducible standard operating procedures (SOPs) for sample collection,...
