A Polymerase-chain-reaction Assay for the Specific Identification of Transcripts Encoded by Individual Carcinoembryonic Antigen (CEA)-gene-family Members [PDF]
Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is a tumor marker that belongs to a family of closely related molecules with variable expression patterns. We have developed sets of oligonucleotide primers for the specific amplification of transcripts from individual CEA ...

Abstract Background A methodology to assess the immune microenvironment (IME) of non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has not been established, and the prognostic impact of IME factors is not yet clear. Aims This study aimed to assess the IME factors and evaluate their prognostic values. Methods and Results We assessed CD8+ tumor‐infiltrating lymphocyte (

The Diagnostic Value of carcinoembryonic Antigen and cancer Antigen 125 in Malignant Pleural Effusion [PDF]
Many studies have proved that carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and cancer antigen 125 (CA125) have high affinity and binding specificity, and can be used to distinguish pleural effusion in patients with malignant and non-malignant pleural effusion.

Lymph node CXCL17 messenger RNA: A new prognostic biomarker for colon cancer
Lymph node metastasis is the most important prognostic characteristic of colorectal cancer. Carcinoembryonic antigen messenger RNA was shown to detect tumor cells that have disseminated to lymph nodes of colorectal cancer patients and to be at least as ...

Cloning of the Complete Gene for Carcinoembryonic Antigen [PDF]
Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is a widely used tumor marker, especially in the surveillance of colonic cancer patients. Although CEA is also present in some normal tissues, it is apparently expressed at higher levels in tumorous tissues than in ...

Prognostic significance of tumor size of small lung adenocarcinomas evaluated with mediastinal window settings on computed tomography. [PDF]
BACKGROUND:We aimed to clarify that the size of the lung adenocarcinoma evaluated using mediastinal window on computed tomography is an important and useful modality for predicting invasiveness, lymph node metastasis and prognosis in small adenocarcinoma.
