Description | This antibody is produced by immunizing rabbits with a synthetic peptide (KLH-coupled) corresponding to a region of human CEA. Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is a glycoprotein involved in cell adhesion. It is normally produced during fetal development. It was found that serum from individuals with colorectal carcinoma, gastric carcinoma, pancreatic carcinoma, lung carcinoma and breast carcinoma, as well as individuals with medullary thyroid carcinoma, had higher levels of CEA than healthy individuals.The best use of CEA is as a tumor marker, especially for cancers of the gastrointestinal tract. |
