The established and future biomarkers of malignant pleural mesothelioma

Highlights • A review of front line diagnostic, prognostic, predictive mesothelioma biomarkers. • Circulating mesothelin and pleural fluid hyaluronate/N-ERC mesothelin, may be helpful adjuvant diagnostic tools. • Non-coding RNAs, proteomics and hyaluronan may be important future markers. • Tumor gen...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • A review of front line diagnostic, prognostic, predictive mesothelioma biomarkers. • Circulating mesothelin and pleural fluid hyaluronate/N-ERC mesothelin, may be helpful adjuvant diagnostic tools. • Non-coding RNAs, proteomics and hyaluronan may be important future markers. • Tumor gene-ratio, FISH assay and deformability cytometry emerge as promising tests. • Mutations of the BAP1 gene are novel susceptibility markers for mesothelioma.
