| Research Abstract |
We found that there are natural autoantibodies against KL-6/MUC1 in sera from healthy volunteers. We tried to clarify the clinical significance of the anti-MUC1 natural autoantibodies in sera from patients with advanced stages of non-small cell lung cancer.
Subjects were 9 patients with clinical stage IIIB and 21 patients with clinical stage IV of non-small cell lung cancer. Controls were 60 healthy volunteers.
Serum level of the anti-MUC1 natural autoantibodies were 108(]SY.+-。[)25.6 U/ml (mean (]SY.+-。[) SD) in healthy volunteers and 32 (]SY.+-。[) 13 U/ml in lung cancer patients. In the lung cancer patients, theirsurvival time of patients with high serum level of the anti-MUC1 natural autoantibodies more than 32 U/ml was significantly longer than patients with low level of the natural autoantibodies :
These results clearly indicate that the serum level of anti-MUC1 natural autoantibodies is a novel prognostic factor for oatients with advanced stages of non-small cell lung cancer and that they might have anti-tumor effects against lung cancer.
