Despite improved treatment, mortality remains high. In order to improve the assessment of prognosis for colon cancer patients, identifying new prognostic markers remains necessary. We analyzed preoperative serum samples from 148 colon cancer patients surgically treated at Helsinki University Hospital from 1998 through 2002 using a multiplex proximity extension assay (Oncology II panel, Olink Bioscience, Uppsala, Sweden), a panel constituting 92 immunological and oncological markers. We performed uni- variate and multivariate analyses on these patients and calculated the disease-specific survival among patients using the log-rank test for Kaplan–Meier estimates. In the univariate survival analysis of 92 biomarkers, 26 resulted in p \ 0.1. Among these, eight biomarkers emerged as statistically significant (p \ 0.05). Patients with low levels of kallikrein 13 had a poor prognosis. Moreover, patients with high levels of amphiregulin, carcinoembryonic antigen-related adhesion mole- cule 5, interleukin 6, mucin 16, syndecan 1, transforming growth factor alpha, and vimentin also had a poor prognosis. In the multivariate analysis, kallikrein 13 and mucin 16 emerged as independent prognostic markers. The role of kallikrein 13, a member of the serine protease kallikrein biomarker family, in tumorigenesis remains unclear. Mucin 16 is also known as carbohydrate antigen 125, a well-known ovarian cancer biomarker. Patients with low levels of kallikrein 13 (hazard ratio: 0.36; 95% confidence interval: 0.14–0.92; p = 0.033) and high levels of mucin 16 (hazard ratio: 3.15; 95% confidence interval: 1.68–5.93; p \ 0.005) had a poor prognosis. Mucin 16 and kallikrein 13 represent independent prog- nostic markers for colon cancer. Furthermore, the clinical utility of mucin 16 and kallikrein 13 serum tests warrants addi- tional investigation.

Mice lacking p63 exhibit severe developmental defects such as limb truncations, abnormal skin, and absence of hair follicles, teeth, and mammary glands. Germline missense mutations of p63 have been shown to be responsible for several human developmental syndromes including SHFM, EEC and ADULT syndromes and are associated with anomalies in the development of organs of epithelial origin.

  • A Multiparametric Serum Kallikrein Panel for Diagnosis of Non ^ Small
    Imaging, Diagnosis, Prognosis A Multiparametric Serum Kallikrein Panel for Diagnosis of Non ^ Small Cell Lung Carcinoma Chris Planque,1, 2 Lin Li,3 Yingye Zheng,3 Antoninus Soosaipillai,1, 2 Karen Reckamp,4 David Chia,5 Eleftherios P. Diamandis,1, 2 and Lee Goodglick5 Abstract Purpose: Human tissue kallikreins are a family of15 secreted serine proteases.We have previous- ly shown that the expression of several tissue kallikreins is significantly altered at the transcription- al level in lung cancer. Here, we examined the clinical value of 11members of the tissue kallikrein family as potential biomarkers for lung cancer diagnosis. Experimental Design: Serum specimens from 51 patients with non ^ small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and from 50 healthy volunteers were collected. Samples were analyzed for11kallikreins (KLK1, KLK4-8, and KLK10-14) by specific ELISA. Data were statistically compared and receiver operating characteristic curves were constructed for each kallikrein and for various combinations. Results: Compared with sera from normal subjects, sera of patients with NSCLC had lower levels of KLK5, KLK7, KLK8, KLK10, and KLK12, and higher levels of KLK11, KLK13, and KLK14. Expres- sion of KLK11and KLK12 was positively correlated with stage.With the exception of KLK5, expres- sion of kallikreins was independent of smoking status and gender. KLK11, KLK12, KLK13, and KLK14 were associated with higher risk of NSCLC as determined by univariate analysis and con- firmed by multivariate analysis.The receiver operating characteristic curve of KLK4, KLK8, KLK10, KLK11,KLK12, KLK13, and KLK14 combined exhibited an area under the curve of 0.90 (95% con- fidence interval, 0.87-0.97).

While the physiological roles of several KLKs have been at least partially Accepted 29 June 2010 elucidated, their activation and regulation remain largely unclear. This obscurity may be related to the fact Available online 6 July 2010 that a given KLK fulfills many different tasks in diverse fetal and adult tissues, and consequently, the timescale of some of their physiological actions varies significantly. To date, a variety of endogenous þ Keywords: inhibitors that target distinct KLKs have been identified. Among them are the attenuating Zn2 ions, Tissue kallikrein fi active site-directed proteinaceous inhibitors, such as serpins and the Kazal-type inhibitors, or the huge, Speci city pockets fi Inhibitory compound unspeci c compartment forming a2-macroglobulin. Failure of these inhibitory systems can lead to certain Zinc pathophysiological conditions. One of the most prominent examples is the Netherton syndrome, which is Rule of five caused by dysfunctional domains of the Kazal-type inhibitor LEKTI-1 which fail to appropriately regulate KLKs in the skin.

  • Human KLK13 / Kallikrein-13 Protein (His Tag)
    Human KLK13 / Kallikrein-13 Protein (His Tag) Catalog Number: 10199-H08H General Information SDS-PAGE: Gene Name Synonym: KLK-L4; KLKL4 Protein Construction: A DNA sequence encoding the pro-form of human KLK13 (NP_056411.1) (Met 1-Ile 262) was expressed with a C-terminal polyhistidine tag. Source: Human Expression Host: HEK293 Cells QC Testing Purity: > 95 % as determined by SDS-PAGE Bio Activity: Protein Description Measured by its ability to cleave the fluorogenic peptide substrate Boc- VPR-AMC (R&D Systems, Catalog # ES011) . The specific activity is >200 Tissue kallikrein 13 (hK13), also known as KLK-L4 (kallikrein-like gene 4), pmoles/min/μg. (Activation description: The proenzyme needs to be is a member of the human tissue kallikrein family of serine proteases activated by Lysyl-Endopeptidase for an activated form) having diverse physiological functions in many tissues. The KLK13 gene resides on chromosome 19q13.3-4 along with other 14 members in a gene Endotoxin: cluster and shares a high degree of homology. KLK13 is a trypsin-like, secreted serine protease expressed specifically in the testicular tissue < 1.0 EU per μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method including prostate, salivary gland, breast, and testis. Growing evidence suggests that many kallikreins are implicated in carcinogenesis and may Stability: play a role in metastasis. KLK13 may be involved in the pathogenesis Samples are stable for up to twelve months from date of receipt at -70 ℃ and/or progression of breast and ovary cancers, and is regarded as a novel cancer biomarker. In addition, KLK13 interacts and forms complexes with Predicted N terminal: Gly 18 several serum protease inhibitors, such as alpha2-macroglobulin, and its expression is regulated by steroid hormones.
