mesothelioma types
What are tumor markers for mesothelioma?
Can anyone tell me the names of the tumor markers that appear in the blood in case of mesothelioma? And it may appear in other types of cancer?
D2-40 and podoplanin are two markers of tumor cells from blood for mesothelioma. D2-40 can also appear as a marker of cancer of the retina. There are other tests. The Web sites give much information. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18394747 http://www.mesothelioma-line.com/articles/category/type-of-assessment/diagnosis/serum- markerblood-test /
