Research Abstract |
Measurement of serum Annexin II level using anti-Annexin II antibody Using 2-D gel electrophoresis, we compared the protein profiling expressed in pancreatic cancer cell line which is resistant against treatment with anti cancer drug, gemcitabine, established by treating cells with the drug for long time with wild type cell line. We identified Annexin II is highly expressed in cell line with chemo-resistance, but not in wild type cells. This indicated that Annexin II has a role in establishing chemo-resistance in cancer cells. This also suggested that measurement of serum Annexin II level in pancreatic cancer patients may indicate the prognosis of the patients with treatment of this medicine. We now established the system to measure the serum level of Annexin II using Protein Chip System (CYPHAGEN). This system resolve the peptide in the sample using laser spectrum and enable to measure the expression level in the sample. To obtain specifically the serum level of Annexin II, we modified

the surface of the protein chip plate with anti-Annexin II antibody. Using this system, only Annexin II within the whole protein in the serum is captured with the antibody, and we are able to evaluate the concentration of this target protein with precise value even though the expression level is very low. We are now trying to measure Annexin II serum level of the pancreatic cancer patients and analyze whether this serum level is collate with patients prognosis after gemcitabine treatment. For this purpose, we already collected serum samples from patients before and after operation or chemotherapy. We also are trying to measure the urine levels of Annexin II using same system. Using these technique, we are now expecting that we can select the pancreatic cancer patients whose prognosis gemcitabine will improve and avoid the use of this medicine for patients who will not respond the therapy. To these patients, we will treat them with another medicine of other therapies, such as radiation. This system will provide the benefits for selecting the patients and will avoid the wasting precious time and cost of these patients. Less
