Usage

Description

Α-PROTEIN, also known as alpha-protein, is a glycoprotein that serves as a tumor marker found in high levels in the blood of individuals with certain types of cancer, particularly liver cancer. It is produced by liver cells and can be measured through blood tests to assist in diagnosing and monitoring the progression of cancer, as well as indicating other conditions such as hepatitis or cirrhosis.

Uses

Used in Cancer Diagnosis and Monitoring:
Α-PROTEIN is used as a diagnostic marker for identifying the presence of certain types of cancer, especially liver cancer. Its elevated levels in the blood can indicate the need for further investigation and monitoring of the disease's progression.
Used in Liver-Related Condition Assessment:
Α-PROTEIN is used as an indicator for assessing liver-related conditions such as hepatitis or cirrhosis. Monitoring its levels can help in the diagnosis and management of these conditions, providing valuable information for healthcare professionals.
Used in Research and Development:
Α-PROTEIN is utilized in research for understanding the mechanisms behind its production and the factors that influence its levels, such as age, sex, and certain medications. This knowledge can contribute to the development of new diagnostic tools and treatment strategies for cancer and liver-related conditions.
