RESUMO
Urine cell-free DNA (ucfDNA) contains DNA fragments released from the lysis of cells in the urinary system, and circulating cell-free DNA (ccfDNA) can also enter the urine after glomerular filtration, and the mutation information carried by tumor DNA contained in ucfDNA and ccfDNA is consistent. Therefore, as a biomarker for molecular diagnosis of urological and non-urinary tumors, ucfDNA, has become a research hotspot in the field of liquid biopsy in recent years. UcfDNA has potential application value in individualized treatment, early diagnosis, dynamic monitoring of therapeutic efficacy, and prognosis assessment, etc. However, in order to realize the clinical application of urine ucfDNA, the extraction and accurate detection of ucfDNA still need to be solved.
