MeSH Heading: Biomarkers, Tumor
Tree Number(s): D23.101.140
Unique ID: D014408
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D014408
Scope Note: Molecular products metabolized and secreted by neoplastic tissue and characterized biochemically in cells or BODY FLUIDS. They are indicators of tumor stage and grade as well as useful for monitoring responses to treatment and predicting recurrence. Many chemical groups are represented including HORMONES; ANTIGENS; amino and NUCLEIC ACIDS; ENZYMES; POLYAMINES; and specific CELL MEMBRANE PROTEINS and LIPIDS.
