Neuron-specific enolase in medullary thyroid carcinoma.
CLINICALCHEMISTRY, Vol. 34, No. 11, 1988 2375 trile, and applied the extract to a SepPak C18 cartridge (Waters Associates, Milford, MA) that had been washed sequentially with acetomtrile and water. To remove 24,25dihydroxy vitamin D, we washed the cartridge with water, then with methanol:water (7:3 by vol). 250HD was eluted with acetonitrile; the eluate was evaporated under nitrogen and the dri...
متن کاملPotential utility of serum neuron-specific enolase levels in small cell carcinoma of the lung.
To assess the value of neuron-specific enolase (NSE) as a possible biomarker of small cell lung cancer, serum levels were determined by radioimmunoassay in 93 newly diagnosed untreated patients and were compared to the NSE levels of 20 healthy adult controls [9.6 +/- 0.7 (S.E.) ng/ml]. Serum NSE was elevated (greater than 20 ng/ml) in 73% of all patients including 23 of 39 (59%) with limited-st...
متن کاملDetermination of urine neuron-specific enolase levels in neuroblastoma patients.
Urine levels of neuron-specific enolase were determined in 3 neuroblastoma patients (1 in an advanced state and 2 in remission), 25 control children, 37 control adults and 4 children with hematuria by means of the double-antibody inhibition radioimmunoassay specific to the gamma subunit of enolase isozymes. The levels of neuron-specific enolase mean +/- S.D. ng/creatinine mg in an advanced neur...
متن کاملSerum neuron specific enolase levels correlate with patient prognosis for advanced lung cancer.
To analyze the clinical and prognostic value of neuron specific enolase (NSE) levels in serum of advanced lung cancer patients, we analyzed serum NSE level of 110 advanced lung cancer patients (case group), 100 benign lung disease patients (benign disease group), and 100 healthy persons (control group). Case group patients were divided by NSE level into ≥25 ng/mL (52 cases) and <25 ng/mL (58 ca...
