There is protein, which is called carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA). It is a marker of some oncological deseases. Normally it exists only in antenatal organisms.

 

My question is: what is the mechanism of producing this protein in the case of canser? Who produces it? Are this cancer cells, who do this? Or some other organism systems do this in response to cancer?
