Is bile salt-dependent lipase concentration in serum of any help in pancreatic cancer diagnosis?

abstract：OBJECTIVES:Cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), often coexpressed in cancer, are associated with poor prognosis. However, results from pancreatic cancer trials of their inhibitors were disappointing. This study delineated the role of COX-2 and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs in a...
