Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Carbohydrate antigen series biomarkers in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) are important for the diagnosis of brain metastasis and meningeal carcinomatosis. Its relationship with CSF and serum in non-neoplastic diseases may be beneficial for earlier diagnosis and treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS:161 pairs of CSF and serum samples were obtained and compared. The 97.5th percentile and maximum value of carbohydrate antigen series biomarkers were obtained. RESULTS:The 97.5th percentile and maximum value of CSF CA125, CA15-3 and CA19-9 concentration for overall participants was 4.31 u/ml and 4.59 u/ml, 2.01 and 3.65 u/ml, 2.71 u/ml and 3.00 u/ml, respectively. Gender had no significant effect on these three CSF biomarkers. The concentration of these three biomarkers in CSF were all lower than the paired serum concentration. The ratio of CA125, CA15-3 and CA19-9 level (CSF / serum) were from 0.018 to 0.69, 0.038 to 0.893, 0.017 to1, respectively. CONCLUSIONS:Evaluation of intrathecal tumor markers synthesis is a specific, sensitive, reliable, and reproducible diagnostic tool. The values determined in this study of CSF carbohydrate antigen series biomarkers are significantly lower than what is usually used in clinical practice.
