Beschreibung

Galactosyl-Tn-antigen is an antigen that is found in the urine of patients with bladder cancer. It is a glycoprotein that has been shown to be present in the urine of patients with bladder cancer and not in the urine of healthy individuals. Galactosyl-Tn-antigen was detected using a monoclonal antibody against an epitope on the Tn antigen and can be used for diagnosis of bladder cancer. The level of galactosyl-Tn-antigen in the serum varies with age and glomerular filtration rate, suggesting that it may be involved in renal function. Galactosyl-Tn-antigen has also been shown to have a role in cell adhesion and skin reactions, as well as autoimmune diseases such as cancer.
