Pro prostate specific Ag isoform 2
Active
Description
Pro prostate specific antigen (proPSA) isoform 2, also known as [-2]proPSA, p2PSA, and 2pPSA, is one of four isoforms of proPSA. All four isoforms are specific for prostate cancer, but p2PSA has been shown to be the most elevated in men with prostate cancer compared to those with negative biopsies. The Prostate Health Index (PHI) is a calculation that includes PSA, free PSA, and p2PSA. The PHI has been found to be a diagnostic marker for prostate cancer, PMID: 25818705 and may also be a marker of metastatic prostate cancer in patients who have undergone previous resection PMID: 22741000.
