Anti-FIRΔexon2 autoantibody as a novel indicator for better overall survival in gastric cancer.

ABSTRACT: There is no clinically available biomarker for efficiently indicating the overall survival or therapy response of gastric cancer (GC). The autoantibodies (Abs) in the sera of anti-far-upstream element-binding protein-interacting repressor-lacking exon2 (FIRΔexon2), anti-sorting nexin 15, and anti-spermatogenesis and oogenesis-specific basic helix-loop-helix 1 were markedly higher in GC patients than in healthy donors (HDs). These Abs were identified by large-scale serological identification of antigens by recombinant cDNA expression cloning screenings and their expression levels were evaluated by amplified luminescence proximity homogeneous assay. In particular, compared with age-matched HDs, the level of anti-FIRΔexon2 Abs in GC patients was significantly higher (P < .001). The Spearman's
