Autoantibodies to Tumor-Associated Antigens as Cancer Biomarkers

Abstract: Malignant tumors induce humoral immune response in cancer patients, although the incidence of such autoantibody responses against individual tumor-associated antigens (TAA) is rather low. To increase predictive value of TAA-recognizing autoantibodies as potential cancer biomarkers, TAAs should be combined into protein arrays. Here we review recent advances in the application of such arrays and summarize data concerning most promising antigens. We also review the methods of cloning TAA-recognizing autoantibodie… Show more

“…Tumor associated antigens (TAAs) which are highly expressed in the process of tumorigenesis and progression, can induce immune response [14]. Compared with TAAs, TAAbs have amplification effects and are easily detectable, thus TAAbs can be used as tumor markers [15]. In recent years, TAAbs have been used in LC auxiliary diagnosis; however, the conclusion of their diagnostic efficacy was partially consistent [9,16].…”

“…Due to the efficient biological amplification of circulating autoantibodies, they may be present at high concentrations in blood [18]. In addition, they are not subjected to proteolysis like other polypeptides [19], autoantibodies are largely stable in serum for a relatively long period of time (T1/2 of between 7 and 30 days, depending on the subclass of immunoglobulin).…”
