Prostate-Specific Antigen in Ascitic Fluid [PDF]
Clinical Chemistry, 1997 Although previously thought to be produced almost exclusively by the epithelial cells of the prostate (1), prostate-specific antigen (PSA) is produced and secreted by several extraprostatic sources (2)(3). Considering the high degree of homology of PSA with the human glandular kallikrein (hKGK1) (4)(5) and the activation of the kallikrein–kinin system ...

Performance of Xpert MTB/RIF on Ascitic Fluid Samples for Detection of Abdominal Tuberculosis
Journal of Laboratory Physicians, 2017 Background: Diagnosis of abdominal tuberculosis (TB) from ascitic fluid samples using routinely available diagnostic methods is challenging due to its paucibacillary nature.

Ascitic fluid analysis for the differentiation of malignancy related and nonmalignant ascites [PDF]
, 1991 The authors tried to differentiate malignancy-related from nonmalignant ascites with a sequence of sensitive followed by specific ascitic-fluid parameters. There were four results of this study. First, of nine parameters investigated in a first series of

, 2009 Correlations between tumour markers in ascitic fluid and serum were investigated to determine whether ascitic fluid analysis had any diagnostic advantage over serum in 91 adults with ascites (55 malign; 36 benign).

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Keratin 19 (KRT19) is overexpressed in high‐grade serous ovarian cancer with high levels of Kallikrein‐related peptidases (KLK) 4–7 and is associated with poor survival. In vivo analyses demonstrate that elevated KRT19 increases peritoneal tumour burden.

Usefulness of ascitic fluid lactoferrin levels in patients with liver cirrhosis
BMC Gastroenterology, 2016 BackgroundAlthough elevated levels of lactoferrin provide a biomarker for inflammatory bowel diseases and colorectal cancer, the clinical significance of these elevated levels in ascitic fluid of patients with ascites caused by liver cirrhosis is limited.

PARP inhibitors induce a senescence phenotype in non‐small cell lung carcinoma cell lines
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Talazoparib is the most potent inducer of senescence among different PARP1 inhibitors in human NSCLC cells. In the absence of PARP, no senescence phenotype was observed, demonstrating that PARP1 is necessary for the induction of senescence by this inhibitor.

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Matrix metalloproteinase‐9 (MMP9) drives ovarian cancer progression. Using MMP9‐null cells (M9‐KO) created from ovarian cancer cells, we found MMP9 loss did not block Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF)‐driven E‐cadherin dissolution or EMT but delayed and reduced EGF‐driven membrane protrusions. Transient MMP9 re‐expression drove membrane protrusion.
