GlossaryKi-67

protein marker indicating cell proliferation

Ki-67 is a protein found in the nucleus of cells that is associated with cell proliferation, meaning it is present when cells are actively dividing. It is commonly used as a marker in cancer diagnostics to determine the growth fraction of a given cell population, helping to assess how quickly a tumor is likely to grow.
