Abstract:
Pancreatic cancer in the nonjaundiced patient can be difficult to diagnose, even with the aid of modern scanning techniques. Studies have shown that mucus glycoproteins (mucins) are frequently detectable in the serum of patients with pancreatic cancer (1,2), and these mucins may express a wide range of different carbohydrate structures The detection and quantification of mucin can be used in serological diagnosis of the disease.
