14-3-3 theta, previously found to be the target of autoantibodies in newly diagnosed subjects with lung cancer, is also associated with autoantibodies in sera collected at the pre-symptomatic stage. These findings suggest potential utility of an approach to diagnosis of lung cancer before onset of symptoms that includes screening for autoantibodies to defined antigens, including 14-3-3 theta.
The findings of this study suggest potential utility of an approach to diagnosis of lung cancer before onset of symptoms that includes screening for autoantibodies to defined antigens. Investigation of 14-3-3 theta is ongoing.
