Abstract:
ObjectiveTo establish the time-resolved fluoroimmunoassay (TRFIA) method for the detection of serum galectin-3 and investigate the clinical value of serum galectin-3 for the diagnosis of pancreas cancer.MethodsMonoclonal anti-human galectin - 3 antibody and biotinylated polyclonal antibody were used to establish the sandwich TRFIA for detection of serum galectin-3.The optimal experimental condition was studied.Serum levels of galectin-3,CEA and CA19-9 in the patients with pancreatic cancer,benign pancreatic mass,pancreatitis,and healthy controls were measured.The diagnostic value of serum galectin-3,CEA and CA19-9 for pancreas cancer was studied.ResultsThe linearity of the TRFIA for detection of serum galectin3 tanged between 0 to 100 μg/L.The within-run CV and between-run CV were ≤6.45％ and ≤8.68％,respectively,and the average recovery was 106.6％.The level of serum galectin-3 was 4.93 ( 0.85 ～ 23.80) μg/L in pancreatic cancer group,which were significantly higher than those in benign pancreatic mass [2.83 ( 2.17 ～ 4.06) μg/L ],pancreatitis [ 2.62 (0.55 ～ 9.76 ) μg/L ],and healthy controls group [ 1.88 ( 0.59 ～ 3.94) μg/L] (P ＜0.05).By using 3.77 μg/L as the cut-off point,the smsitivity,specificity for the diagnosis of pancreatic cancer was 75.5％ and 90.9％.The levels of Gal 3 and CEA,CA19-9 was not correlated ( r =0.1321,P =0.3761 ; r =0.0920,P =0.5384).Combined determination of galactin-3 and CEA,CA19-9 levels could increase the diagnostic sensitivity to 92％.ConclusionsTRFIA method for the detection of galactin-3 is sensitive and stable.Galectin-3 could be a potentially novel serum tumor marker of pancreatic cancer.
