While tumor marker tests can provide very useful information, they do have limitations: Many tumor markers may also be elevated in persons with conditions or diseases other than cancer. Some tumor markers are specific for a particular type of cancer, while others are seen in several different typ...

Tumormarker sind nachweisbare oder meßbare Substanzen, die in besonderer Weise auf einen oder mehrere Tumoren hinweisen können, ohne ausschließlich mit ihnen verknüpft zu sein. Einen wesentlichen Teil der Tumormarker stellen die hier behandelten serologischen Tumormarker dar. Ferner zäh...
Tumor gene expression is predictive of patient prognosis in some cancers. However, RNA-seq and whole genome sequencing data contain not only reads from host tumor and normal tissue, but also reads from the tumor microbiome, which can be used to infer the
f Flow cytometry analysis was conducted on macrophages to evaluate the expression of the protumorigenic marker CD206. The macrophages were stained after being mono-cultured in the presence of control medium, 4T1-cancer CM, or a 1:1 mix of cancer CM and CM from fibroblasts induced by cancer ...
Single marker detection for lung cancer was limited in sensitivity and specificity; therefore, we conducted multiplexed detection by targeting three lung cancer-related markers: CEA, a broad-spectrum tumor protein marker most commonly observed in adenocarcinoma [36]; Cyfra21-1, allowing measurement of...
(A) Flow cytometric analysis confirming the expression of the epithelial cell marker EpCAM in three primary cultures derived from primary tumor, omental metastasis, and ascites fluids of three different HGSOC patients, as well as in the OVCAR3 cell line as a positive control and PBMCs as a ...
fibroblasts showed high expression of chemokines (CCL11, CXCL12, and CXCL14) (Fig.2b; Table S4), similar to the previously reported iCAFs in various types of tumors such as BC [6] and PTC [8]. GO enrichment analysis of its marker genes showed their association with the response to ...
Compared to quinoline-based fibroblast activation protein (FAP)-targeted radiotracers, pyridine-based FAP-targeted tracers are expected to have faster pharmacokinetics due to their smaller molecular size and higher hydrophilicity, which we hypothesize wo
and Europe, but the two tests are occasionally ordered by health care practitioners in the U.S. Common Questions How is the test used? Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) is used as a tumor marker to help detect and diagnose cancers of the liver, testicles, and ovaries. Though the test is often ...
