Krebs von den Lungen-6
Active
Description
Krebs von den Lungren 6 (KL-6) is a glycoprotein that is a biomarker for connective tissue disorder-related interstitial lung disease (CTD-ILD). Serum KL-6 levels reflect the degree of damage to type II pneumocytes and are correlated with the severity of ILD as well as progression and prognosis for certain types of CTD-ILD, including that related to systemic sclerosis and inflammatory myositis. Serum KL-6 is negatively correlated with pulmonary function testing. PMID: 30764869 Source: Regenstrief LOINC
