Gastric functional serological biopsy marker - PG
PG I and PG II are two important biomarkers that are widely used in clinical settings to diagnose and monitor various gastrointestinal diseases. PG I, also known as pepsinogen I, is mainly secreted by the gastric chief cells and is an indicator of the overall gastric secretory function. On the other hand, PG II, or pepsinogen II, is secreted by both the chief and pyloric cells and is primarily used to assess the risk of gastric cancer.
