Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Emily M Clarke"
- Emily M Clarke's recent research primarily focuses on the interplay between platelets and cancer cells, particularly in the context of metastasis, highlighting the role of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and their prognostic significance in various cancers.
- One of her notable studies investigates the protective effects of platelet-derived angiopoietin-1 against tumor metastasis in murine models, suggesting that platelets may harbor both pro- and anti-tumorigenic factors.
- In addition to her cancer research, Clarke has explored historical perspectives on atherosclerosis, presenting evidence from ancient cultures that challenges modern understandings of the disease's origins and proposes potential nontraditional risk factors linked to microbial burdens in ancient populations.
