  • Method for inspecting gastroenterological cancer by utilizing N-linked sugar chain
    Patent number: 8932866
    Abstract: As a result of collecting blood from pancreatic cancer patients, esophageal cancer patients, and stomach cancer patients, and conducting mass spectrometry on N-linked sugar chains in the plasmas, sugar chains whose abundances are significantly different from those of healthy subjects have been successfully identified from the blood samples of the cancer patients.

  • DIAGNOSTIC MARKER FOR DIGESTIVE ORGAN CANCER AND INSPECTION METHOD FOR DIGESTIVE ORGAN CANCER
    Publication number: 20140273049
    Abstract: A diagnostic marker for digestive organ cancer according to the present invention is used for determining whether or not to have a digestive organ cancer. The diagnostic marker for digestive organ cancer contains at least one of N-binding type sugar chains released from a glycoprotein contained in blood and represented by the following formulas (1) to (6). This makes it possible to provide a diagnostic marker for digestive organ cancer capable of being used for an inspection method of easily determining whether or not to have a digestive organ cancer at an early stage, and an inspection method for digestive organ cancer of easily determining whether or not to have a digestive organ cancer at an early stage.
