Mesothelin as Biomarker and Therapeutic Target for Immunotherapy in Cancer

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 10, October 2026.
Mesothelin overexpression activate important pathways like nuclear factor k‐light‐chain‐enhancer of activated B cells (NF‐κB) and interleukin‐6 (IL‐6). This in turn causes numerous cancers, such as pancreatic and ovarian cancers. MSLN‐targeting immunotherapies, like monoclonal antibodies, have shown efficacy.
