Serum KL-6 concentrations in dairy farmers.

STUDY OBJECTIVES Serum KL-6 (Krebs von den Lungen-6) has been recognized to be a marker for the activity of diffuse interstitial lung diseases. The purpose of the study is to evaluate serum KL-6 measurement as a marker for farmer's lung disease (FLD). DESIGN A cross-sectional survey of a cohort of dairy farmers. Retrospective measurement of KL-6 stored serum samples from those dairy farmers p...

Circulating KL-6 levels in patients with drug induced pneumonitis.

BACKGROUND The circulating level of KL-6/MUC1 is a sensitive marker for various interstitial lung diseases. Previous case reports have suggested that KL-6 may also be increased in some patients with drug induced pneumonitis. A study was undertaken to determine whether serum KL-6 could be a marker for particular types of drug induced pneumonitis. METHODS The findings of high resolution compute...
