We have previously used agarose gel electrophoresis and immunoblotting to qualitatively measure serum MUC5AC mucin for diagnosing cholangiocarcinoma. In this study, we developed a quantitative determination of serum MUC5AC by sandwich ELISA using MUC5AC mucin monoclonal antibody and soybean agglutinin. A cut-off value of the absorbance 0.074 was obtained from a complete statistical Receiver Operating Characteristic curves with an area under the curve=0.8141. The assay could discriminate cholangiocarcinoma patients from the controls with 71% sensitivity and 90% specificity. The test is simple to perform, reproducible, and probably used for detecting cholangiocarcinoma in a high-risk group or suspected patients.
我们之前曾使用琼脂糖凝胶电泳和免疫印迹法定性检测血清MUC5AC黏蛋白以诊断胆管癌。在本研究中,我们使用MUC5AC黏蛋白单克隆抗体和大豆凝集素,通过夹心酶联免疫吸附测定法(ELISA)对血清MUC5AC进行了定量测定。通过完整的统计受试者工作特征曲线获得吸光度截断值为0.074,曲线下面积=0.8141。该检测方法能够以71%的灵敏度和90%的特异性区分胆管癌患者与对照组。该检测操作简单、可重复,可能用于在高危人群或疑似患者中检测胆管癌。
