Protein biomarkers and lipidomics identify ovarian cancer in patients, suggesting early detection methods.
Protein biomarker levels. Protein biomarkers were quantified via immunoassay, and values are log₁₀ transformed and visualized by scatter plot. A, CA125. Dotted line shows threshold referenced in clinical guidance (35 U/mL). B, HE4. Dotted line shows threshold referenced in clinical guidance (140 pmol/L). C, FOLR1. D, MUC1. Error bars indicate mean and SD. Mann–Whitney U tests were performed between controls and each ovarian cancer group. OC, ovarian cancer. EOC, early-stage ovarian cancer. Statistical testing used Mann Whitney U with significance defined as: ns, P > 0.05; **, P ≤ 0.01; ***, P ≤ 0.001; ****, P ≤ 0.0001.
