Serum lgAl contains 0-linked carbohydrate structures, whereas other immunoglobulins contain only N-linked structures. An assay was developed which detects lgAl by measuring the DGalP(1-3) DGalNAc structures 0-linked to the lgAl hinge region. Fifty percent of the serum specimens from cancer patients
There is a growing need for short-term and cost-effective bioassay to assess the efficacy of potential chemo-preventive agents. We report that the induction of glutathione (GSH) S-transferase (mGSTP1-1) by a chemo-preventive agent can be used as a reliable marker to assess its efficacy in retarding
## BACKGROUND. Evaluating chemotherapeutic effect in patients with gastric carcinoma sometimes is difficult. The authors investigated whether changes in the serum levels of three tumor markers can be used to predict the clinical outcome after chemotherapy. ## METHODS. Thirty patients with advance
