Alpha (Alpha globulin)

Alpha globulin is a type of protein found in your blood, primarily produced by the liver. It plays a vital role in immune system support by transporting substances like hormones, vitamins, and metals, and also helps in the body's response to inflammation and infection. Measuring levels of alpha globulin can help doctors assess liver function, inflammation, or immune system activity. Normal levels indicate balanced protein production, while abnormal levels may suggest underlying health conditions requiring further investigation.
