Diagnostic Significance of Procalcitonin (PCT) Antigen

Inflammatory indicator -PCT

Procalcitonin (PCT) is the precursor peptide of calcitonin (CT). After translated by CT-mRNA, PCT is digested enzymatically into the final product mature CT with 32 amino acids. The content of PCT is extremely low in serum of normal human. After being infected by microbes, the CALC-I gene is induced to express and promote the secretion of PCT until reaching its peak after 8 hours. Currently, PCT has been recognized as a bioindicator for systemic inflammatory response syndrome and has been widely applied in guiding treatments, reducing the use of antibiotics, diagnosing sepsis, and improving long-term outcomes.

Guidance on antibiotics uses

World Health Organization revealed that only 20 out of every 100 cases of respiratory infections require antibiotic treatments. However, conventional diagnostic methods using bacterial culturing for infection often results in delays. Therefore, an indicator that specifically targeting bacterial infections would be most helpful. Research has discovered that PCT can serve as an important indicator differentiating infectious and non-infectious inflammation, as well as distinguishing between bacterial and viral infections. Moreover, the dynamic levels of PCT have important prognostic significance.

Diagnosis of sepsis

Systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) is the most common manifestation of patients with severe disease diagnosed. When SIRS exists and infection is confirmed or suspected, the term sepsis is used. In severe cases of infection, most pro-inflammatory cytokines (such as TNF-α, IL-1b or IL-6) only increase briefly or intermittently. By contrast, the level of PCT increases several times to several thousand times in sepsis, and such increase is usually associated with the severity of the condition and subsequent mortality rate at admission. Various studies and reviews have indicated that PCT has higher diagnostic accuracy compared to other parameters for diagnosing sepsis.

Reference Value of PCT

<0.05 ng/ml	Normal
<0.5ng/ml	No or slight systemic inflammation
0.5-2ng/ml	Medium level of systemic inflammation
2-10ng/ml	Suspected sepsis
≥10ng/ml	Critical bacterial sepsis
