[Significance of biochemical markers in the diagnosis of neuroendocrine tumours and for the follow-up of patients].

Abstract:

:Circulating markers of neuroendocrine tumours are useful tools in the diagnosis of these tumours. Laboratory tests for general biomarkers have acceptable sensitivity for the recognition of neuroendocrine tumours as these biologically active proteins are typically synthesized by all types of neuroendocrine cells. Measurement of chromogranin A is widely used not only in the diagnosis of neuroendocrine tumours but it may predict the prognosis of the diseases and the effect of the antitumor therapy. It is also a useful tool for the detection of residual tumours. Neurendocrine tumours represent a heterogeneous group of tumours with the ability to secrete several hormones and, therefore, measurement of these hormones can also serve as neuroendocrine cell type-specific markers in routine clinical practice. In this review the authors summarize the significance of tumour markers in the diagnosis of neuroendocrine tumours as well as in the management and follow-up of patients with this disease. :A vérben keringő, illetve a vizelettel ürülő neuroendokrin tumormarkerek vizsgálata kiemelt fontosságú diagnosztikai eszköz a neuroendokrin daganatok kórisméjének felállításában. Az általános neuroendokrin tumormarkerek olyan biológiailag aktív fehérjék, amelyek szintézisére minden neuroendokrin differenciálódást mutató sejt képes, ezért vizsgálatuk megfelelően érzékeny módszernek bizonyult e daganatok felismeréséhez. Az általános neuroendokrin tumormarkerek közül a legszélesebb körben a chromogranin A vizsgálata terjedt el. A legújabb eredmények szerint a chromogranin A szérumkoncentrációjának vizsgálata a kórjóslat megállapításában, a daganatellenes terápia hatékonyságának előrejelzésében, továbbá a daganatkiújulás észlelésében is fontos eszközként szolgál. Az általános tumormarker mellett a sejtspecifikus markerek is komoly jelentőséggel bírnak. Jelen közleményben a szerzők áttekintik a neuroendokrin tumormarkerek szerepét a daganatok diagnosztikájában, illetve a betegek kezelése és utánkövetése során. Orv. Hetil., 2014, 155(45), 1775–1782.
