Specificity
This antibody binds CA19-9, which is a mucin-type glycoprotein tumor marker, a glycolipid on the cell membrane. It is known to play a role in cell-to-cell recognition processes. Elevated levels of CA 19-9 may indicate advanced cancer in the pancreas, but it is also associated with noncancerous conditions, including gallstones, pancreatitis, cirrhosis of the liver, and cholecystitis.
