| Background | Chromogranin A is a member of the chromogranin/secretogranin (granins) family of neuroendocrine secretory proteins. Chromogranin A (CgA) represents the major soluble protein co-stored and co-released with catecholamines, within chromaffin cells secretory granules. Chromogranin A is the precursor to several functional peptides including vasostatin, pancreastatin, catestatin and parastatin. It is considered a diagnostic and prognostic marker of several diseases, including a variety of tumours and cardiac heart failure. |
