The Joyce family
Quite som time ago
Nothing very
earth shaking in the anti-OVCA line has crossed my computer lately, but I guess
this is worth reporting. As you surely
know, a large part of the reason OVCA is so deadly is that it is very difficult
to detect until it reaches an advanced stage.
Thus, much effort is expended in trying to develop sensitive bio-marker
routines. That is what my Fred Hutch
research group worked on back then. This
article presents an advance on that front, utilizing a marker protein (HE4)
discovered, if I remember correctly, by my Hutch research group. Catch it early, improve longevity. Not world class news, but welcome nonetheless.
