Indicators

CA19-9 Antigen

CA 19-9 is a fucosylated glycosphingolipid carbohydrate antigen that is soluble and is adsorbed to erythrocytes and to many adenocarcinomas of the digestive tract, especially pancreatic tumors. By structure CA 19-9 is related to the Lewis blood group antigens.

Indicators

Chromogranin-A

Chromogranin-A (457 aa, ~51 kDa) is encoded by the human CHGA gene. This protein plays a role in the modulation of both blood pressure and pancreatic release of insulin.

Tests

Chymotrypsin in Stool

This test measures the amount of chymotrypsin in a stool (poop) sample. Chymotrypsin is an enzyme, a protein that speeds up certain chemical reactions in your body. It is released by your pancreas (an organ behind your stomach) to help break down the protein in your food during digestion. If your pancreas is working as it should, there will be some chymotrypsin in your stool sample.
