- Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is a glycoprotein present in fetal digestive-tract tissues; it’s involved in cell adhesion. The production of CEA stops before birth. CEA is called tumor marker since its elevated levels are found in the serum from individuals with colorectal; gastric; pancreatic; lung and breast carcinomas and in heavy smokers. There are also benign conditions that elevate CEA levels such as smoking; infection; inflammatory bowel disease; pancreatitis; cirrhosis of the liver; and some benign tumors (in the equivalent organs which have cancers with elevated CEA). Typically; higher levels of CEA are found in men; smokers; and older individuals. The presence of CEA assists in screening; in evaluating recurrent or disseminated disease; and in determining the success of surgical removal of malignant tumors. CEA levels can be used as indicators of treatment success. The normal values range from 0.0 to 2.5 ng/ml of serum (from blood); in non-smokers; a greater amount than that may be suggestive of cancer. Levels above 20 ng/ml before treatment are associated with cancer which has already metastasized. Benign conditions do not usually cause a CEA increase over 10 ng/ml. The high levels of CEA should return to normal after successful therapy; however if during follow up there’s an elevation in CEA levels it indicates a recurrence of tumor. Carcinoembryonic antigen family belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily; it consists of 29 genes; 18 of which are normally expressed. CEA Human Recombinant is glycosylated with N-linked sugars and produced using baculovirus vectors in insect cells. CEA is a well-known tumor marker corresponding to the full length human CEA.
