Breast cancer (BC) is one of the most dangerous malignant diseases in females. However, the reliable serum biomarkers of BC still need to be explored. Chemerin levels have been found to be


associated with different types of cancer. This study aimed to evaluate the role of serum chemerin as a biomarker of BC diagnosis, as well as the correlation between serum chemerin levels


and clinicopathological features. The serum from 248 BC patients, 30 breast benign tumor patients, and 103 healthy controls were collected and serum chemerin levels were determined with


enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. We found that serum levels of chemerin in BC patients were higher than those in healthy control individuals (p
