High serum carbonic anhydrase IX predicts shorter survival in head and neck cancer

Abstract: OBJECTIVES: The objective of the study was to investigate prognostic and predictive value of pretreatment soluble carbonic anhydrase IX (CA IX) blood serum concentration in patients with locally advanced head and neck cancer. BACKGROUND: Increased expression of CA IX in tumor tissues has been associated with treatment resistance and worth prognosis. Soluble form of CA IX, released from tumor cells, is detectable in blood serum and could be a convenient predictive factor of treatment effectiveness that would en… Show more

“…As hypoxic tumors are a known source of sCAIX [25][26][27] , we assessed cancer prevalence. The presence of cancer could not have influenced our data, since 17 (3.5%) participants with undetectable sCAIX reported active cancer, compared to 3 participants with detectable levels (3.8%).…”

“…After washing, 100 µl of detection antibody (200 ng/ml) were added and incubated for 2 h at RT; streptavidin-HRP (100 µl) was used as a detector. Reaction was stopped by adding 50 µl of the stop solution and the optical density of each well was determined using a microplate reader set to 492 nm 25 .…”

“…TACE/ADAM17 has been found to induce the shedding of the extracellular domain of CAIX, also called soluble CAIX [101] . This molecule has been detected in the sera of cancer patients and has been shown diagnostic and/or prognostic in several cancers, including head and neck cancer [102] , breast cancer, prostate cancer [103] , renal cell carcinoma [104] , [105] , [106] , ovarian cancer [107] , gastric cancer [108] , rectal cancer [109] , and non-small cell lung cancer [103] , [110] .…”

“…CA IX is a zinc metalloenzyme belonging to a broader group of 15 isoforms involved in the catalysis of carbon dioxide hydration to bicarbonate and proton. Among these isoforms, CA IX has high clinical relevance in cancer therapy since it is implicated in tumorigenesis 13,31,32 and considered a marker of tumour hypoxia [33][34][35][36] . CA IX is overexpressed in a large number of solid tumours, whereas its expression in normal tissues is quite limited, suggesting its role as valuable tumour biomarker.…”
