Procalcitonin (PCT), a 116-amino-acid precursor of calcitonin, is a protein encoded by the *CALC-1* gene. Under normal physiological conditions, PCT is primarily produced by thyroid C-cells and rapidly cleaved into calcitonin, a hormone involved in calcium homeostasis. However, during systemic inflammation—particularly bacterial infections—PCT expression is upregulated in extra-thyroid tissues (e.g., liver, adipose, and immune cells) via cytokine-mediated pathways. This elevated PCT circulates intact, making it a clinically valuable biomarker for sepsis, severe bacterial infections, and inflammatory conditions.
Recombinant PCT refers to the protein produced through genetic engineering, bypassing natural cellular pathways. It is synthesized in heterologous systems like *E. coli* or mammalian cell cultures, ensuring high purity and consistency for research and diagnostic applications. Recombinant PCT retains immunoreactivity, enabling its use as a reference standard in PCT detection assays (e.g., ELISA, lateral flow tests) to quantify endogenous PCT levels in patient samples.
Therapeutic exploration of recombinant PCT remains limited, but its role in modulating inflammatory responses is under investigation. Studies suggest PCT may interact with immune receptors (e.g., TLRs) or adhesion molecules, influencing cytokine release and endothelial activation. Challenges include optimizing stability and minimizing aggregation during production. Current applications focus on improving sepsis diagnostics, antibiotic stewardship programs, and understanding PCT's pathophysiological mechanisms. Future directions may explore its potential as a therapeutic target or adjunct in infection management.
