Additional file 2: Figure S2. PCR and phenotypic analysis of the Δcre1 strain T. reesei SDC11. a PCR analysis of T. reesei SDC11 with SP4 as control. 1 and 2 represent the fragment (upstream region and open reading frame of gene cre1) amplificated by the prime pair cre1-2426UF/cre1-1069R in T. reesei SDC11 and SP4, respectively; 3 and 4 represent the internal fragment of gene cre1 amplificated by the prime pair cre1-497F/cre1-1069R in T. reesei SDC11 and SP4, respectively. 5 and 6 represent the fragment of gene pyrG amplificated by the prime pair pyrG-UF1/pyrG-2426DR in T. reesei SDC11 and SCP11, respectively. b Southern blot analysis of the genomic DNA isolated from SP4 and SCP11, which were digested with EcoRI/HindIII. A 5.5-kb fragment is present in the parental strain SP4, and a 7.0-kb band is shown in Δcre1 + pyrG strain SCP11. c Growth of T. reesei SN1, Δcre1 + pyrG strain SCP11 and Δcre1 strain SDC11 on MM plate. d Growth of T. reesei SP4, Δcre1 + pyrG strain SCP11 and Δcre1 strain SDC11 on the MM plate containing uracil (0.1%)
Serum Cytokeratin 19 Fragment, CK19-2G2, as a Newly Identified Biomarker for Lung Cancer
<div><p>Background</p><p>CK19-2G2, a new fragment of cytokeratin 19, is a potential tumor marker for diagnosing lung cancer. The preoperative level of serum CK19-2G2 has been demonstrated to be associated with tumor metastasis and survival of breast cancer patients. This study investigated the postoperative dynamic changes in serum CK19-2G2 levels and its clinical significance in lung cancer patients.</p><p>Materials and Methods</p><p>Preoperative serum CK19-2G2 levels were measured in 630 lung cancer patients and were compared with individuals with benign pulmonary diseases (n = 134) and healthy volunteers (n = 263). In 352 cases, the patients underwent surgery. In these patients, in addition to preoperative assays, serum CK19-2G2 was also monitored at 1 week and 1 month after the operation.</p><p>Results</p><p>The preoperative baseline levels of serum CK19-2G2 was significantly higher in lung cancer patients than patients with benign diseases and healthy controls (P<0.001). The postoperative levels of CK19-2G2 declined significantly within 1 week after tumor resection. Hereafter, a further decrease was observed in the patients who underwent palliative operations, while for the patients in the radical resection group, their CK19-2G2 levels stabilized.</p><p>Conclusion</p><p>CK19-2G2 may be a candidate marker for diagnosing and monitoring a patient's response to lung cancer treatment. In addition, CK19-2G2 may be an indicator for micrometastases in lung cancer patients.</p></div
