CA 125 is a membrane-bound protein at the cell surface such as the ocular surface, respiratory tract, and female reproductive tract. It acts as a lubricating barrier against foreign particles and infectious agents. Its expression is altered in various conditions like cystic fibrosis and cancers. CA 125 is used as the biomarker for ovarian cancer detection. It is used as a positive control in the ELISA test kit.
