could predict the presence of various cancer entities in patients<br />

with hepatocellular, colorectal and non-small cell lung carcinoma<br />

(HCC, CRC, NSCLC, resp.), as a tool for cancer screening<br />

and therapy response monitoring. Methods: MPs were<br />

isolated from serum of patients with HCC, CRC, NSCLC and<br />

from healthy donors. MP profiling was done after differential<br />

ultracentrifugation using FACS analysis for the presence and<br />

quantity of AnnexinV + /EpCAM + and AnnexinV + /EpCAM + /<br />

CD147 + taMPs. Results: AnnexinV + /EpCAM + and AnnexinV<br />

+ /EpCAM + /CD147 + taMPs highly significantly separated<br />

patients with carcinomas from healthy controls. The calculated<br />

cut-off values for AnnexinV + /EpCAM + taMPs were 36.6<br />

/1AnnexinV + MPs in NSCLC, 35.8/1kAnnexinV + MPs in CRC<br />

and 31.4/1kAnnexinV + taMPs in HCC. Additionally, AnnexinV<br />

+ /EpCAM + /CD147 + taMPs indicated the presence of cancer<br />

as well as AnnexinV + /EpCAM + taMPs alone. AnnexinV + /<br />

EpCAM + taMPs and AnnexinV + /EpCAM + /CD147 + taMPs<br />

were increased 2.4-fold (p
