Biomarkers Biochemistry
Biomarkers are biochemical molecules that are used to measure and track changes in the body's physiology and health. These biomarkers can often be used to detect diseases, predict outcomes, monitor treatment, and identify high risk individuals. For instance, levels of C-reactive protein, a biomarker for inflammation, may be used to diagnose infections and other inflammatory conditions. Biomarkers may also be used to measure the effectiveness of treatments for cancer, heart disease, and other conditions. By understanding the role of biochemical biomarkers in health, medical professionals are able to diagnose, monitor, treat, and manage conditions more effectively.
