Chromogranin A Test in Mansa

Sterling Accuris Diagnostics offers Chromogranin A Test in Mansa which is used to calculate the amount of chromogranin A protein in a blood sample. It is also known as a tumor marker test.
Overview of Chromogranin A Test
Chromogranin A (CgA) is a protein that is found in the big, core vesicles of neuroendocrine cells. Chromogranin A-derived peptides have bodily activities, like regulation of blood pressure, tumour angiogenesis, glucose metabolism, and neuroprotection. These cells can cause both malignant and benign tumors.
Neuroendocrine cells have properties of both hormone-producing cells and nerve cells. They receive signals from the nervous system that initiate them to release hormones and other elements, along with CgA, into the blood. Numerous tumors release large amounts of hormones like insulin, serotonin and catecholamines.
When there is an abnormal growth of neuroendocrine cells, CgA can be released at higher-than-normal levels, and it results in neuroendocrine tumors (NET).
Why and when should the Chromogranin A Test be done?
This test is generally suggested by a doctor. Further, in some conditions, your doctor may assess your CgA level to check if cancer has come back. Often, CgA testing may be suggested to help diagnose a NET. This type of testing may be recommended if:
- An individual shows symptoms indicating a neuroendocrine tumor.
- A potential NET is found during surgery or imaging scans for a different health issue.
- A tumor is reacting to therapy or not.
- A probable adjunct in result prognosis and follow-up in progressive prostate cancer
The general signs and symptoms that are suggestive of a Chromogranin A Test are as under:
- Feeling unusually tired
- A growing lump that you feel under the skin
- pain from a developing tumor
- Skin flushing and rash
- Unexpected weight loss
- Frequent urination
