2   antibody antibody category Molecular biomarker physiologic role is an antibody.
2   antgen antigen category Molecular biomarker physiologic role is an antigen.
2   cellReceptor cell receptor category Molecular biomarker physiologic role is a cell receptor.
2   cellReceptorLigand cell receptor ligand category Molecular biomarker physiologic role is a cell receptor ligand.
1 _moleculeTypeBiomarkerCategory Molecular biomarker molecular type category A category based on the type of biomarker molecule.
2   carbohydrate carbohydrate category Molecular biomarker molecule type is a carbohydrate.
2   lipid lipid category Molecular biomarker molecule type is a lipid.
