Protein concentration of peritoneal fluids and baseline serum CA125 levels. (a) Protein concentration of the 44 ovarian cancer ascites was determined and correlated with TRAIL IC50 fold increased mediated by ascites. (b) Baseline serum CA125 levels were obtained for all except one patient and correlated with TRAIL IC50 fold increased mediated by ascites. Correlation coefficients (r) were determined by Pearson's correlation coefficient test.
