Application of a novel microscopic technique for quantifying CA125 binding to circulating mononuclear cells in longitudinal specimens during treatment for ovarian cancer
Background: Measurement of serum CA125, an antigenic fragment of human mucin 16 (MUC16), is used to monitor the clinical progression of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). However, rather than simply a passive marker reflecting tumor burden, MUC16 may have a more active role by binding to immune cells...
