Abstract
Although serum galectin-1 antibodies (s-GAL-1-Abs) have been evaluated in a small number of patients with cancer, a large series of patients with different cancer types have not been reported. The current study evaluated 1,833 patients with esophageal cancer (n=172), gastric cancer (n=317), colorectal cancer (n=262), hepatocellular carcinoma (n=91), prostate cancer (n=358), breast cancer (n=364), lung cancer (n=269) and 72 healthy individuals. s-GAL-1-Abs levels were analyzed using an originally developed ELISA system. A cut-off optical density value was determined as the mean (0.053) + 3 standard deviations (0.105) of sera from healthy controls. The results revealed that the positive rate of s-GAL-1-Abs in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (16.7%) and lung cancer (13.8%) were significantly higher compared with the other groups: Esophageal cancer (11.6%), colorectal cancer (11.5%), prostate cancer (7.3%), gastric cancer (6.9%), breast cancer (6.9%) and healthy controls (4.2%). Although the positive rates of s-GAL-1-Abs in different cancer types were relatively low, s-GAL-1-Abs may be useful for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma and lung cancer.

Abstract
SAPHO (synovitis, acne, pustulosis, hyperostosis, and osteitis) syndrome shows a wide variability in musculoskeletal and cutaneous manifestations, and it is therefore underrecognized and misdiagnosed in the clinic due to a lack of specific markers. In this study, we aimed to identify specific biomarkers by screening serum autoantibodies in SAPHO patients with a 17K human whole-proteome microarray. The serum anti-Sp17 autoantibody was identified and verified to be a specific biomarker in patients with SAPHO syndrome. Indeed, the level of the anti-Sp17 autoantibody was significantly increased in patients with active SAPHO compared to patients with an inactive disease and healthy controls (P < 0.05). Additionally, serum anti-Sp17 autoantibody levels correlated with those of serum hypersensitive C-reactive protein (hsCRP), the erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), and β-crosslaps (β-CTx) in patients with active SAPHO disease. Moreover, anti-Sp17 autoantibody levels were markedly decreased after anti-inflammatory treatment with pamidronate disodium, which downregulated levels of hsCRP and ESR in patients with active SAPHO. Thus, serum levels of the anti-Sp17 autoantibody might serve as a specific biomarker for the diagnosis of SAPHO syndrome or for monitoring the disease status.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The incidence and clinical impact of serum autoantibodies in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) are controversially discussed. The aim of the study was to reassess the value of elevated serum autoantibodies in our MS study cohort. MATERIAL & METHODS In total, 176 MS patients were retrospectively analyzed for coexistence and clinical impact of increased serum autoantibody levels. RESULTS The 18.8% of the MS cohort showed elevated serum autoantibody levels, but only 10.2% of all MS patients were diagnosed with a further autoimmune disease (AI). Patients with elevated serum autoantibodies (AABS) were not significantly more often diagnosed with a clinical manifest AI as compared to patients with negative autoantibodies (P = 0.338). MS patients with disease duration of more than 10 years showed no significant increase of positive autoantibodies as compared to patients with a more recent disease onset (P = 1). MS patients with elevated serum autoantibodies did not exhibit a significantly worse disease course (P = 0.428). CONCLUSIONS According to our data, elevated serum autoantibodies do not have the potential to serve as a prognostic tool for disease severity in patients with MS Since MS patients with positive serum AABS did not significantly more often suffer from clinical manifest AIs than MS patients with negative serum AABS, the role of routine testing of serum AABS in MS patients should be critically called into question.
