Abstract: The present invention relates to a method aiding in the assessment of cancer. It discloses the use of the human fibroblast activation protein (FAP/seprase) as a universal marker of different cancer types. Seprase aids in the assessment of pulmonary or lung cancer (LC) or of colon cancer, e.g. of non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) or colorectal cancer (CRC), but also likely of other specific types of cancer. Such specific cancer types are e.g. esophagus, head and neck cancer, stomach cancer, bile duct cancer, pancreas cancer, kidney cancer, cervix cancer, ovary cancer, breast cancer, bladder cancer, endometrium cancer or prostate cancer. Furthermore, it especially relates to a method for assessing cancer from a liquid sample, derived from an individual by measuring seprase in said sample. Measurement of seprase can, e.g., be used in the early detection of cancer or in the surveillance of patients who undergo surgery.

Abstract: What is described here is a method of producing a patterned coating by PECVD without additional production steps. The proposed method produces a moth-eye like macrostructure on a surface by direct deposition. Additionally, the macrostructure may be modulated by a microstructure with a surface texture in the subwavelength range. As a result, protective, antireflective coating comprising a carrier layer consisting of an optically transparent material, which, at least on one surface side, presents antireflective properties with respect the optical wavelengths of the radiation incident on the surface can be produced, as well as surface structures which are the basis for superhydrophobic surface properties.
