Do soluble Tie-2 receptor levels independently predict locoregional recurrence in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma?
Soluble Tie2R is an independent predictor of locoregional recurrence in HNSCC.
Levels of serum trypsin and PSTI were elevated during the 2 weeks after administration of ASNase, which suggested the presence of subclinical pancreatitis. This period is similar to the time period in the present study when the levels of plasma amino acids changed, thus suggesting that ASNase-induced pancreatic injury could be caused by the imbalance of plasma amino acid levels.
