In this article the data availability statement was incorrectly given. “EGAS0000100682” should have been “EGAS00001006821”. The correct statement as follows. The datasets generated during and/or analysed during the current study are deposited at the European Genome-phenome Archive (EGA) under the accession numbers EGAS00001006821 and...

Tumour-educated platelets for breast cancer detection: biological and technical insights

Background: Studies have shown that blood platelets contain tumour-specific mRNA profiles tumour-educated platelets (TEPs). Here, we aim to train a TEP-based breast cancer detection classifier. Methods: Platelet mRNA was sequenced from 266 women with stage I–IV breast cancer and 212 female controls from 6 hospitals. A particle swarm optimised...
