OBJECTIVE Biomarker detection in pancreatic cyst fluids is of importance to improve the diagnosis of mucinous cystadenoma, a precancerous lesion. However, assay protocols are generally established for serum testing. METHODS Immunoradiometric assay of gastric M1/MUC5AC mucin was performed on

Global Protease Activity Profiling Provides Differential Diagnosis of Pancreatic Cysts.

Purpose: Pancreatic cysts are estimated to be present in 2%-3% of the adult population. Unfortunately, current diagnostics do not accurately distinguish benign cysts from those that can progress into invasive cancer. Misregulated pericellular proteolysis is a hallmark of malignancy, and therefore,

The lysosomal aminopeptidase tripeptidyl peptidase 1 displays increased activity in malignant pancreatic cysts.

Incidental detection of pancreatic cysts has increased dramatically over the last decade, but risk stratification and clinical management remain a challenge. Mucinous cysts are precursor lesions to pancreatic cancer, however, the majority are indolent. Current diagnostics cannot identify mucinous

Proteomic analyses of pancreatic cyst fluids.

OBJECTIVE There are currently no diagnostic indicators that are consistently reliable, obtainable, and conclusive for diagnosing and risk-stratifying pancreatic cysts. Proteomic analyses were performed to explore pancreatic cyst fluids to yield effective diagnostic biomarkers. METHODS We have

Laminin gamma2-chain fragment circulating level increases in patients with metastatic pancreatic ductal cell adenocarcinomas.

Laminin-5 (LN5) is expressed solely by epithelial cells and considered to enhance cell migration after being cleaved by proteases, leading to the shedding of the N-terminal fragment of the LN5 gamma2-chain (G2F). We estimated circulating G2F level in 181 patients with various digestive diseases and

Cathepsin E expression and activity: Role in the detection and treatment of pancreatic cancer.

Only registered users can translate articles

Cathepsin E (CTSE) is an intracellular, hydrolytic aspartic protease found to be expressed in cells of the immune and gastrointestinal systems, lymphoid tissues, erythrocytes, and cancer cells. The precise functions are not fully understood; however, various studies have investigated its numerous
