Researchers from University of Belgrade Publish Findings in Neuraminic Acids

2012 APR 3 -- A new study, "Assessment of sialic acid diversity in cancer- and non-cancer related CA125 antigen using sialic acid-binding Ig-like lectins (Siglecs)," is now available. According to the authors of a study from Belgrade, Serbia, "This study was aimed at obtaining insight into the diversity of sialic acids in cancer-and non-cancer-related CA125 antigen, tumor marker of serous ovarian cancer. Starting from available data suggesting the possible relevance of sialic acids for discriminating CA125 antigens of different origin, we have employed a new experimental approach based on the use of human sialic acid-binding Ig-like lectins, Siglecs, as tools for the...
