Title Proteomic identification of autoantibodies in sera from patients with ovarian cancer as possible diagnostic biomarkers.
Journal Anticancer Res
Abstract BACKGROUND/AIM:Accumulating evidence shows that various types of cancers induce a specific immune response resulting in the production of antibodies against self-components (autoantibodies). The aim of the present study was to identify antigens for autoantibodies in sera from patients with ovarian cancer, especially clear cell carcinoma (CCC), as novel diagnostic markers for the disease.
MATERIALS AND METHODS:The reactivity of individual sera from patients was examined by two-dimensional (2-D) immunoblotting using lysates of CCC cell lines, ES-2 and RMG-1, as antigens to identify autoantigens. ELISA was established to quantitatively measure autoantibody titer of patients' sera.
RESULTS:Autoantibodies against RhoGDI were induced in sera of ovarian cancer patients. Elevated levels of autoantibodies against heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein L (hnRNPL) and a mitochondrial protein, dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase (DLD), were detected in patients with CCC.
CONCLUSION:Autoantibodies against RhoGDI and hnRNPL and DLD may serve as novel diagnostic markers for ovarian cancer and CCC, respectively.
