Mesothelin (MSLN) is a differentiative antigen that is highly expressed in several human tumors, including mesothelioma, ovarian, and pancreatic cancers. As MSLN is overexpressed only in tumor tissues and not in adjacent normal tissues in pancreatic cancer, and is closely associated with tumor progression and migration, it has been proven to be a promising cancer biomarker and an effective target for cancer-targeted therapy.Modification with an anti-MSLN antibody would improve the targeting efficiency of diagnostic imaging agents and the drug-delivery system towards the MSLN-overexpressing pancreatic tumors.
