  • Lung cancer differential marker
    Patent number: 10539576
    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to develop and provide a lung cancer differential marker with which lung cancer can be diagnosed conveniently and highly sensitively without depending only on increase or decrease in protein expression level between cancer patients and healthy persons. Another object of the present invention is to develop and provide a glycan marker capable of distinguishing histological types of lung cancer. Of serum glycoproteins, glycopeptide and glycoprotein groups whose glycan structures were altered specifically in lung cancer cell culture supernatants were identified, and they are provided as lung cancer differential markers.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 12, 2017
    Date of Patent: January 21, 2020
    Assignees: National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology, Tokyo Medical University
