Chromogranin A is a 49 kDa acidic protein that consists of 439 amino acids encoded on chromosome 14. Chromogranin A has been identified in several normal and neoplastic endocrine tissues. It is demonstrated that an elevated level of circulating chromogranin A is a marker for tumors of neuroendocrine origin.  This assay has shown that it did not exhibit any high dose “hook” effect up to 1,000,000 ng/mL. This is essential because some subjects with pheochromocytoma had over 300,000 ng/mL of chromogranin A level in the serum sample.
