Liquid biopsy has emerged as an appealing method that makes it unnecessary to use invasive procedures. It depicts the biology of tumors at first sight based on circulating tumor cells (CTCs), cell-free DNA (cfDNA), and exosomes in the blood of the patient. This paper provides a review of the likelihood of the integration of liquid biopsy with medical imaging methods, such as MRI, CT, PET, and ultrasound, to enhance the accuracy of tumor identification. We expand on how liquid biopsy might improve healthcare imaging by defining tumor characterization more accurately and precisely, avoiding false positive and negative values, and providing genetic integration information that is often useful when interpreting imaging scans. Case examples are employed to demonstrate the seamless combination of liquid biopsy data with imaging outcomes, which can help expand the understanding of cancer pathophysiology and treatment sensitivity. However, artificial intelligence and machine learning should be used to support the execution of this supposed synergistically integrated strategy. The article also explains the problems concerning the integration of these two diagnostic methods and stresses the importance of standardizing the procedures and cooperation between the disciplines.

Additionally, Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and various pathologic stains were utilized to observe QKF's therapeutic effect on sciatic nerve (SN) damage in DPN mice. The impact of QKF on the pathological mechanism of the DPN model was explored through qRT-PCR, western blot, and immunohistochemistry.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Our results demonstrated that QKF improved phenotypic features in a mouse model of DPN, increased blood flow around the foot pad and SN, and somewhat repaired the pathological structure and function of SN. Furthermore, the study revealed that QKF slowed down the progression of DPN by inhibiting the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress apoptosis signaling pathway mediated by PERK/ATF4/CHOP pathway.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>The significant neuroprotective effects of QKF in experimental DPN mice were confirmed by our findings, which offer important scientific evidence supporting its potential utilization in DPN treatment.</p>","PeriodicalId":10845,"journal":{"name":"Current pharmaceutical design","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143699897","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
