Selective Microfluidic Capture and Detection of Prostate Cancer Cells from Urine without Digital Rectal Examination
Urine-based biomarkers have shown suitable diagnostic potential for prostate cancer (PCa) detection. Yet, until now, prostatic massage remains required prior to urine sampling. Here, we test a potential diagnostic approach using voided urine collected without prior digital rectal examination (DRE)....

Urine-based biomarkers have shown suitable diagnostic potential for prostate cancer (PCa) detection. Yet, until now, prostatic massage remains required prior to urine sampling. Here, we test a potential diagnostic approach using voided urine collected without prior digital rectal examination (DRE). In this study, we evaluated the diagnostic performance of a microfluidic-based platform that combines the principle of photodynamic diagnostic with immunocapture for the detection of PCa cells. The functionality and sensitivity of this platform were validated using both cultured cells and PCa patient urine samples. Quantitative reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) demonstrated this platform had a detection limit of fewer than 10 cells per 60 µL and successfully validated the presence of a PCa biomarker in the urine of cancer patients without prior DRE.
