Is serum human epididymis protein 4 ready for prime time? [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical Biochemistry: International Journal of Laboratory Medicine, 2013
The National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) guidelines have sparked hot debate regarding the role of carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA-125) for ovarian cancer (OC) detection. Recent literature and evidence calls into question the use of CA-125 in diagnostic algorithms, given the better performance of human epididymis protein 4 (HE4) vs.

Expression of a catalytically inactive mutant form of glutathione peroxidase 4 (Gpx4) confers a dominant-negative effect in male fertility. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The selenoenzyme Gpx4 is essential for early embryogenesis and cell viability for its unique function to prevent phospholipid oxidation. Recently, the cytosolic form of Gpx4 was identified as an upstream regulator of a novel form of non-apoptotic cell ...

The diagnostic accuracy of two human epididymis protein 4 (HE4) testing systems in combination with CA125 in the differential diagnosis of ovarian masses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background: Cancer antigen 125 (CA125) is the best known single tumor marker for ovarian cancer (OC). We investigated whether the additional information of the human epididymis protein 4 (HE4) improves diagnostic accuracy.

Exploring the relationship between preeclampsia and human epididymis protein 4

open access: yesJournal of Surgery and Medicine, 2022
Background/Aim: The level of human epididymis protein 4 (HE4), a glycoprotein and protease inhibitor,increases under many malignancies and inflammatory conditions. HE4 is also associated with cellinvasion, migration, and adhesion. In this study, we compared the HE4 protein levels in pregnant patientswith preeclampsia to healthy pregnant and non ...
