Pairwise comparisonsshowed that 8 glycans are significantly different in all three pairwise comparisons.Figure 1 shows the mass spectra plots obtained <strong>for</strong> each category.CONCLUSION: We have demonstrated that comparative glycomic profiling ofEAC reveals a subset of glycans that can be selected as candidate biomarkers.These markers can differentiate normal from HGD, normal from EAC, and HGDfrom EAC. Further validation will be necessary to determine the clinical utility ofthese glycan biomarkers.148
