Table 1.

MUC16/CA125 as a clinical marker

Disease species Expression situation Representative meaning
Interstitial lung disease CA125 expression was upregulated Disease marker
Ovarian cancer Overexpression

Cancer marker

Represents a poor prognosis

Ovarian cancer CA125 expression was upregulated 3–6 months after treatment The patient did not respond well to primary treatment
Endometrial carcinoma HE4 and CA125 increased Predicting high LNM risk in patients with endometrioid adenocarcinoma before surgery
Epithelial ovarian cancer CA125 and HE4 were cleared slowly after chemotherapy Suggests that the patient may be resistant to platinum drugs and the prognosis is poor
Pancreatic cancer Overexpression Cancer marker
Acute heart failure CA125 expression was up-regulated Represents a poor prognosis
Cancer of unknown primary Mutation Cancer marker
EBV-associated lymphoepithelioma-like cholangiocarcinoma Mutation Help identify this particular subtype
Primary malignant melanoma of the esophagus Mutation Help identify this particular subtype
Pseudomyxoma peritonei Mutation Help identify this particular subtype
Ovarian serous cystadenocarcinoma The RNA levels of MUC16, PAX8 and SOX17 genes were changed Distinguish ovarian serous cystadenocarcinoma from other tumor types
Gastric cancer Mutation Represents higher TML and longer median survival, and higher response to immunotherapy
Colon cancer Mutation Represents high TMB
Non-small cell lung cancer Mutation

It is associated with increased mutation load TMB and neoantigen load

It indicates better effect of ICI treatment

Melanoma Mutation

Represents high TMB

It indicates better effect of ICI treatment
