Analysis of patients with colorectal cancer shows a specific increase in serum anti-ING1 autoantibody levels.

ABSTRACT: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most prevalent cancer in the world, yet the sensitivity and specificity of biomarkers for CRC diagnosis are insufficient. In the present study, we performed a protein microarray screening method to identify antibody markers for CRC. Inhibitor of growth family 1 (ING1) was identified as a candidate tumor antigen for CRC using protein microarrays (ProtoArray). Subsequent amplified luminescence proximity homogeneous assay-linked immunosorbent assay using recombinant ING1 protein showed that the serum levels of anti-ING1 antibodies were increased not only in patients with CRC but also in those with esophageal cancer (EC), gastric cancer (GC), breast cancer (BrC), and pancreatic cancer (PC) compared with those of healthy donors (HDs). Antibodies against the
