Exploring the Immunoproteome for Ovarian Cancer Biomarker Discovery

Most scientific efforts towards early detection of ovarian cancer are commonly focused on the discovery of tumour-associated antigens (TAA). Autologous antibodies against TAA, however, may serve as more sensitive diagnostic markers. They circulate in the blood before TAA and are usually more abundant than the TAAs themselves as a result of amplification through the humoral immune response. Accu...

Construction and expression of a single chain antibody mimicing human ovarian cancer antigen CA125.

One concept for immune therapy of cancer involves induction of antigen mimic antibodies to trigger the immune response against tumor cells. Anti-idiotypic antibodies directed against the antigen-binding site of antibodies specific for tumor antigen may functionally and even structurally mimic antigen and induce anti-anti-idiotypic immune response. Monoclonal antibody WJ02 is one of such anti-id...

Ovarian Cancer Biomarker Discovery Based on Genomic Approaches

Ovarian cancer presents at an advanced stage in more than 75% of patients. Early detection has great promise to improve clinical outcomes. Although the advancing proteomic technologies led to the discovery of numerous ovarian cancer biomarkers, no screening method has been recommended for early detection of ovarian cancer. Complexity and heterogeneity of ovarian carcinogenesis is a major obstac...

The Process Chain for Peptidomic Biomarker Discovery

Over the last few years the interest in diagnostic markers for specific diseases has increased continuously. It is expected that they not only improve a patient's medical treatment but also contribute to accelerating the process of drug development. This demand for new biomarkers is caused by a lack of specific and sensitive diagnosis in many diseases. Moreover, diseases usually occur in differ...

Proteomics for Cancer Biomarker Discovery

Background: If we are to successfully treat cancer, we must understand the biologic underpinnings in conjunction with early diagnosis. Genome-wide expression studies have advanced the research of many cancers. Nevertheless, understanding which genes are expressed in a tumor is not equivalent to knowing which proteins are being produced. Proteomics hold great promise for careful examination of t...
