Abstract:

Glycosylation changes are the common characteristics of cancer cells. Some types of glycan structures are recognized as the markers of tumor development, but the current molecules cannot regularly meet the pressing needs of tumor early diagnosis, prognosis and metastasis judgment. In recent years, a remarkable progress has been made in the yield of carbohydrate antigens(CA) and their relative molecules in tumor diagnosis. In order to serve the clinical needs better, new tumor markers of CA and their relative molecules, together with multi-parameter analysis, should be established.
