High Level of Serum Coiled-coil Domain Containing 25 (CCDC25) as a Diagnostic Marker for Cholangiocarcinoma But Not for Other Cancers.

Background/aim: Recently, we reported that coiled-coil domain containing 25 (CCDC25) protein is elevated in the sera of patients with cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) and is suggested to be a diagnostic biomarker for CCA. This study aimed to examine whether serum CCDC25 level can be a unique biomarker for CCA. Bioinformatic analyses using Human Protein Atlas (HPA) database and Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis 2 (GEPIA2) indicated that CCDC25 protein and mRNA are expressed not only in CCA but also in other cancers, such as colorectal cancer (CRC), breast cancer (BC), and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), all of which are the top 5 cancers highly prevalent in Thailand.
