The development of noninvasive methods for early detection of colon cancer is critical for the successful management of this disease. Using a targeted quantitative proteomics technique, we assessed the ability of 12 serum proteins to detect the presence of colonic polyps in the Apc(Pirc) (/+) rat model of familial colon cancer. Serum protein candidates were selected from gene transcripts upregulated in colonic tumors of Apc(Pirc) (/+) rats and from a prior study of serum proteins differentially ...[more]
