متن کاملComparison of benign peritoneal fluid- and ovarian cancer ascites-derived extracellular vesicle RNA biomarkers
BACKGROUND Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are considered as a new class of resources for potential biomarkers. We analyzed expression of specific mRNA and miRNA in EVs derived from ovarian cancer ascites and the ideal controls, peritoneal fluids from benign patients for potential early detection and prognostic biomarkers. METHODS Fluids were collected from subjects with benign cysts or endometr...
متن کاملEvaluation of tumor markers for the differential diagnosis of benign and malignant ascites.
INTRODUCTION The diagnosis of malignant ascites is a challenging problem in clinical practice, non-invasive techniques should be developed to improve diagnostic accuracy. The diagnostic performances of tumor markers in malignant ascites remained unsettled. Our aim was to evaluate diagnostic performance of tumor markers in differential diagnosis of benign and malignant ascites. MATERIAL AND ME...
