2. Mesomark assay - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesomark_assay

   The Mesomark Assay is an in vitro test to monitor and possibly diagnose pleural mesothelioma and peritoneal mesothelioma. [1]Developed by Fujirebio Diagnostics and approved in late January 2007 by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), it works by measuring levels of soluble mesothelin-related proteins (SMRPs) released by diseased mesothelioma cells.

   In rare cases, mesothelioma has also been associated with irradiation of the chest or abdomen, intrapleural thorium dioxide as a contrast medium, and inhalation of other fibrous silicates, such as erionite or talc. [12] [26] Some studies suggest that simian virus 40 may act as a cofactor in the development of mesothelioma. [26]

4. Lung cancer screening - Wikipedia

   The results showed that more frequent screening resulted in higher resectability rate (more early-stage detection) but made no difference in mortality from lung cancer. Chest x-ray screenings were found to detect 6 times as many new cancers as sputum tests, proving the disutility of sputum tests in lung cancer screening. [17]

6. Mesothelin - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesothelin

   Mesothelin is a 40 kDa protein that is expressed in mesothelial cells. [7] The protein was first identified by its reactivity with monoclonal antibody K1. [8] Subsequent cloning studies showed that the mesothelin gene encodes a precursor protein that is processed to yield mesothelin which is attached to the cell membrane by a glycophosphatidylinositol linkage and a 31-kDa shed fragment named ...
