TEP RNA: a new frontier for early diagnosis of NSCLC.

The application of platelets in the diagnosis and treatment of NSCLC remains at a nascent stage. In addition to the drawbacks of low platelet count and complex experimental processes, the diagnostic accuracy of TEP RNA-seq for cancer in different populations still needs to be improved and validated. At present, a large number of studies have confirmed significant differences in the expression of TEP RNA in platelets between NSCLC patients and healthy individuals. Continuous exploration of the diagnostic value of TEP RNA in NSCLC is of utmost importance. The integration of NSCLC platelet-related markers with other NSCLC markers can improve current tumor diagnosis and prognostic evaluation systems, providing broad prospects in tumor screening, disease monitoring, and prognosis assessment.
