Tumor Biomarkers: Signposts in the Journey of Cancer Detection

Abstract

Mariano Provencio*

Cancer, a formidable adversary in the realm of medicine, often reveals its presence through subtle molecular clues within the body. These clues, known as tumor biomarkers, serve as invaluable signposts in the intricate journey of cancer detection. Tumor biomarkers are molecules, such as proteins, genes, or hormones, which are produced by cancer cells or by the body in response to cancer. They play a pivotal role in early detection, diagnosis, prognosis, and monitoring of cancer, guiding healthcare professionals and patients through the challenging terrain of cancer diagnosis and treatment.
