Plectin-1 immunoprecipitation. a Plec-1 in cyst fluid alone is sufficient to distinguish malignant from benign IPMN. Plec-1 was found in 100% (four out of four) of the cyst fluids from malignant IPMN, whereas the cyst fluid from all three benign IPMN did not contain detectable amounts. The Plec-1-positive malignant IPMN cyst fluids were from three ductal adenocarcinomas and one colloid carcinoma.
