Identification and characterization of novel tumor-associated proteins as potential tumor markers for diagnosis and therapy
This study deals with the discovery and characterization of EXN6 and EXN11 as novel tumor-associated proteins. EXN6 is mainly present in breast and ovary cancers (40 and 35%) while EXN11 is mainly detected in primary and metastatic colon cancer (40%). A characterization of the two proteins confirmed...

| Summary: | This study deals with the discovery and characterization of EXN6 and EXN11 as novel tumor-associated proteins. EXN6 is mainly present in breast and ovary cancers (40 and 35%) while EXN11 is mainly detected in primary and metastatic colon cancer (40%). A characterization of the two proteins confirmed that they could be novel targets for cancer therapy. |
