Target Details for Prostate Specific Antigen

Target: Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA)

Alternative Name: Kallikrein-3 / PSA / KLK3

Background: Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) is a protein produced by normal prostate cells. This enzyme participates in the dissolution of the seminal fluid coagulum and plays an important role in fertility. The highest amounts of PSA are found in the seminal fluid, some PSA escapes the prostate and can be found in the serum. This serum component has been used to track the response to therapy in men with prostate cancer.Synonyms: Gamma-seminoprotein, P-30 antigen, Prostate-specific antigen, Semenogelase
