Detection of cancer/testis antigens as a diagnostic tool in routine pathology practice

Most of the studies on cancer/testis (CT) antigens performed to date have focused on their potential value as targets for immunotherapy. Several recent studies, however, revealed that CT antigens might represent useful tools for diagnostic pathology, in particular for the identification of squamous...

description Most of the studies on cancer/testis (CT) antigens performed to date have focused on their potential value as targets for immunotherapy. Several recent studies, however, revealed that CT antigens might represent useful tools for diagnostic pathology, in particular for the identification of squamous cell carcinoma and related pre-malignant lesions, as well as specific types of sarcoma.
