Research Abstract |
In the cells with pathological conditions, various metabolites are produced through the secretion of disease-related proteins and the protein degradation by proteases. However, the comprehensive study of these disease-specific low-molecule metabolites has not shown the adequate results yet due to various problems. Therefore, the experiments to comprehensively analyze the low-molecule metabolites derived from gastroenterological carcinomas followed by identification of the novel cancer-spesific biomarkers was designed, and then it was investigated whether the identified biomarkers can be actually used in clinical practice.
