Osteopontin Fragments with Intact Thrombin-Sensitive Site Circulate in Cervical Cancer Patients.

Osteopontin Fragments with Intact Thrombin-Sensitive Site Circulate in Cervical Cancer Patients.

We investigated whether circulating osteopontin (OPN) could be used as a biomarker for cervical cancer. We employed a monoclonal antibody (mAb 659) specific for the unique and intact thrombin-sensitive site in OPN using an inhibition ELISA. We found significantly higher levels of OPN in 33 cervical...
