Accordingly, representative tumour antigens include, but are not limited to, (a) antigens such as RAGE, BAGE, GAGE and MAGE family polypeptides, for example, GAGE-1, GAGE-2, MAGE-1, MAGE-2, MAGE-3, MAGE-4, MAGE-5, MAGE-6, and MAGE-12 (which can be used, for example, to address melanoma, lung, head and neck, NSCLC, breast, gastrointestinal, and bladder tumours), (b) mutated antigens, for example, p53 (associated with various solid tumours, for example, colorectal, lung, head and neck cancer), p21/Ras (associated with, for example, melanoma, pancreatic cancer and colorectal cancer), CDK4 (associated with, for example, melanoma), MUM1 (associated with, for example, melanoma), caspase-8 (associated with, for example, head and neck cancer), CIA 0205 (associated with, for example, bladder cancer), HLA-A2-R1701, beta catenin (associated with, for example, melanoma), TCR (associated with, for example, T-cell non-Hodgkins lymphoma), BCR-abl (associated with, for example, chronic myelogenous leukemia), triosephosphate isomerase, MA 0205, CDC-27, and LDLR-FUT, (c) over-expressed antigens, for example, Galectin 4 (associated with, for example, colorectal cancer), Galectin 9 (associated with, for example, Hodgkin's disease), proteinase 3 (associated with, for example, chronic myelogenous leukemia), Wilm's tumour antigen-1 (WT 1, associated with, for example, various leukemias), carbonic anhydrase (associated with, for example, renal cancer), aldolase A (associated with, for example, lung cancer), PRAME (associated with, for example, melanoma), HER-2/neu (associated with, for example, breast, colon, lung and ovarian cancer), alpha-fetoprotein (associated with, for example, hepatoma), KSA (associated with, for example, colorectal cancer), gastrin (associated with, for example, pancreatic and gastric cancer), telomerase catalytic protein, MUC-1 (associated with, for example, breast and ovarian cancer), G-250 (associated with, for example, renal cell carcinoma), p53 (associated with, for example, breast, colon cancer), and carcinoembryonic antigen (associated with, for example, breast cancer, lung cancer, and cancers of the gastrointestinal tract such as colorectal cancer), (d) shared antigens, for example, melanoma-melanocyte differentiation antigens such as MART-1/Melan A, gp100, MC1R, melanocyte-stimulating hormone receptor, tyrosinase, tyrosinase related protein-1/TRP1 and tyrosinase related protein-2/TRP2 (associated with, for example, melanoma), (e) prostate associated antigens such as PAP, prostatic serum antigen (PSA), PSMA, PSH-P1, PSM-P1, PSM-P2, associated with for example, prostate cancer, (f) immunoglobulin idiotypes (associated with myeloma and B cell lymphomas, for example), and (g) other tumour antigens, such as polypeptide- and saccharide-containing antigens including (i) glycoproteins such as sialyl Tn and sialyl Le.sup.x (associated with, for example, breast and colorectal cancer) as well as various mucins
Gingival melanin hyperpigmentation has also been treated using it
However, there is serious controversy surrounding the use of elemental iron in these foods
Ideally, youd be looking to do the test a few weeks before your B12 injection appointment
