- Abstract:
A recent study conducted by researchers at Loma Linda University School of Medicine in California explored the immunogenicity of proteins encoded by prostate cancer (PCa) driver genes and their potential as biomarkers for PCa. The study utilized bioinformatics analysis, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and immunohistochemistry (IHC) to identify candidate driver genes and assess the presence of autoantibodies targeting these genes. The results showed that seven out of the 15 autoantibodies tested exhibited significantly elevated levels in the sera of PCa patients compared to normal controls. The study suggests that proteins encoded by PCa driver genes may possess immunogenic properties and that identifying specific autoantibodies associated with these genes could lead to the discovery of novel autoantibody-based biomarkers for PCa. Further validation of these autoantibodies is needed to evaluate their diagnostic potential. [Extracted from the article]
