Abstract:
AIM: To explore the clinical significance of detecting sCD44s and sCD44v6 in breast carcinoma.METHODS: Levels of serum soluble CD44 standard (sCD44s) and CD44 variant 6(sCD44v6) were detected by ELISA in 38 cases of breast cancer, 15 cases of benign breast diseases and 40 normal controls. RESULTS:The serum levels of sCD44s and sCD44v6 were significantly higher in patients with breast cancer than those with benign disease or normal controls. The serum concentrations of sCD44s and sCD44v6 in patients with stage Ⅲ, Ⅳ were significantly higher than those in patients with stage Ⅰ, Ⅱ(P
