What are tumour markers for mesothelioma?

Nov 26, 2009

Can anybody tell me names of tumour markers that appear in blood in case of mesothelioma?And can they appear in other types of cancer?

D2-40 and podoplanin are two blood markers for mesothelioma tumor cells. D2-40 may appear also as a marker for retinal cancer. There are other tests.
