December 1st, 2007. Reactivity of integrin-linked kinase in human mesothelial cell proliferation

Here we report for the first time that ILK is indeed expressed in malignant mesothelioma. For further validation of a causal association between ILK and neoplastic mesothelial transformation, these immunohistochemical results should be supplemented with clinical and molecular biological data.

December 1st, 2007. Soluble mesothelin-related peptides (SMRP) – High stability of a potential tumor marker for mesothelioma

SMRP exhibits excellent stability regarding short-term storage, long-term storage, and repeated freeze/thaw cycles. Scientific studies as well as real life applications that employ SMRP would not be limited by sample stability issues.
