Abstract
Serum alpha 1-acid glycoprotein (AGP) concentrations were evaluated in nine cats with lymphoma. Twenty-five healthy cats were used as controls. Blood samples were obtained from cats with lymphoma prior to induction chemotherapy, one week following induction, at complete response, and at monthly intervals. The median pretreatment AGP concentration for the nine cats with lymphoma was significantly higher than the median AGP concentration for the 25 control cats. Remission serum AGP concentration was not significantly different from the pretreatment AGP concentration in the cats with lymphoma. Serum AGP concentrations provided no useful information regarding response or survival in cats with lymphoma.
