Identification of the promising biomarker to assist with Several studies have confirmed the reliability of D2-40 in the differential diagnosis between MM and other neoplasms diagnosis of pleural malignant mesothelioma, but the evaluation is continuously desirable. D2-40 is a new monoclonal of this antibody in other pleural neoplasms is limited. The aim of antibody recognizing podoplanin, which has been shown this study was to determine the diagnostic value of D2-40 in to be highly specific for lymphatic endothelium.
