Cytokeratin-18 is a useful serum biomarker for early determination of response of breast carcinomas to chemotherapy.
PURPOSE With a widening arsenal of cancer therapies available, it is important to develop therapy-specific predictive markers and methods to rapidly assess treatment efficacy. We here evaluated the use of cytokeratin-18 (CK18) as a serum biomarker for monitoring chemotherapy-induced cell death in breast cancer. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Different molecular forms of CK18 (caspase cleaved and total) ...

PURPOSE The American Cancer Society estimates that in 2006, 212,920 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer and that 40,970 women will die from the disease. The development of more efficacious chemotherapies has improved outcomes, but the rapid assessment of clinical benefit from these agents remains challenging. In breast cancer patients receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy, treatment respons...
متن کاملChemotherapy increases caspase-cleaved cytokeratin 18 in the serum of breast cancer patients
BACKGROUND Apoptosis is thought to be induced by chemotherapy in cancer patients. Therefore, the measurement of its amplitude may be a useful tool to predict the effectiveness of cancer treatment sooner than conventional methods do. PATIENTS AND METHODS In the study presented, apoptosis was assessed with an ELISA-based assay in which caspase-cleaved cytokeratin 18 (M30-antigen), a novel speci...
