Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Purpose of this study was (i) establish ELISA system to detect serum anti-galectin-1 antibodies, and (ii) evaluate positive rate of serum anti- galectin-1 antibodies in patients with gastric cancer, esophageal cancer and colon cancer. Using a cut-off value of mean +3SD of serum anti- galectin-1 antibody level of healthy controls, positive rate of patients were evaluated. Overall positive rates was 9.7% in gastric cancer, 8% in esophageal cancer, and 8% in colon cancer. No clinicopathological factors were associated with presence of anti- galectin-1 antibodies.
