The clinical significance of flow cytometric c-myc oncoprotein quantitation in testicular cancer.

A sensitive flow cytometric assay has been developed using a monoclonal antibody, Myc 1-6E10, to quantitate c-myc oncoprotein levels in nuclei isolated from wax embedded testicular tumours. The oncoprotein (p62c-myc) level increased significantly with increasing teratoma differentiation. Patients wi...

description A sensitive flow cytometric assay has been developed using a monoclonal antibody, Myc 1-6E10, to quantitate c-myc oncoprotein levels in nuclei isolated from wax embedded testicular tumours. The oncoprotein (p62c-myc) level increased significantly with increasing teratoma differentiation. Patients with intermediate and undifferentiated tumours who developed recurrence had lower p62c-myc levels than those who were disease free since their initial treatment. Such quantitative biochemical methods may provide new prognostic indices for cancer patients.
