Clinical Significance of Soluble CD26 in Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma
There is no established single diagnostic marker for malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM). CD26 is a 110 kDa, multifunctional, membrane-bound glycoprotein that has dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPPIV) enzyme activity. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical significance of soluble CD26 (sCD26) in patients with MPM. The study included 80 MPM patients, 79 subjects with past asbestos exposur...

متن کاملSoluble mesothelin-related protein in malignant pleural mesothelioma.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Building-up evidence suggests that soluble mesothelinrelated protein (SMRP) carries a diagnostic and a prognostic value in malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM). Egypt suffers endemic asbestosis and thus this study was conducted to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of SMRP in patients with MPM and to correlate this marker with known clinicopathological prognostic fa...

Malignant pleural mesotheliomas are tumors originating in the serosal lining of the pleural cavities. Although these are relatively rare tumors, an increasing number of cases are anticipated over the next decade. Patients with these tumors, which are almost invariably fatal, usually have an interval of less than two years between the onset of symptoms and death. There is a well established link...
