  • Title: [Serologic breast cancer follow-up monitoring using pregnancy-associated alpha-2-glycoproteins].
    Author: Bauer HW, Hasselblatt I, Husfeldt KJ, Bohn H.
    Journal: Chir Forum Exp Klin Forsch; 1977 Apr; ():69-72. PubMed ID: 87297.
    Abstract:
    The variations in serum level of the alpha 2-PAG (pregnancy associated glycoprotein) were studied during the treatment of 25 patients with breast cancer. A good correlation was found between alpha 2-PAG concentration and the course of the disease. Serum alpha 2-Pag levels rose prior to the clinical recognition of metastatic disease and decreased significantly on successful treatment. alpha 2-PAG appears to have potential as an indicator of the growth of micrometastases.
