A method of detecting whether a subject is afflicted with or at increased risk of developing liver cancer is carried out by detecting cleavage of a marker in a sample such as a blood sample from the subject. Suitable markers include but are not limited to, calreticulin, calreticulin precursor, protein disulfide isomerase family A member 3 (PDIA3), and cleavage products thereof. The cleavage, or extent of cleavage, can be as compared to that found in a control sample. |
