title: [Retinol-binding protein, haptoglobin and ceruloplasmin--tumor markers in colorectal cancer?].
abstract: Retinol-binding protein, haptoglobin and ceruloplasmin were determined in the plasma of patients with colorectal carcinoma. The comparison with a control group shows that retinol-binding is significantly decreased in colorectal carcinoma and that haptoglobin and ceruloplasmin are significantly elevated. The ROC-curves of the three parameters, however, display a sensitivity distinctly lower than that of CEA, so that any use in the clinical treatment of colorectal carcinoma cannot be expected from the determination of these substances.
