Autoantibodies against tumor-associated antigens in sputum as biomarkers for lung cancer

Tumor antigens (TAs) can initiate host immune responses and produce TA-associated autoantibody (TAAbs), potential cancer biomarkers. Sputum is directly generated from the upper and lower airways, and thus can be used as a surrogate sample for the diagnosis of lung cancer based on molecular analysis....
