NAME Carcinoembryonic Antigen (CEA)
Source
Cancer fluids
Description
Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) describes a set of highly related glycoproteins involved in cell adhesion and is normally produced in gastrointestinal tissue during fetal development; however, the production stops before birth. It is present in low levels in the blood under normal conditions whereas under cancerous conditions the levels of CEA rise. CEA test is performed for diagnosis of colorectal cancer
