Description
- AFP (Alpha Fetoprotein) is a major plasma protein produced by the yolk sac, intestinal tract and the liver during fetal life
- AFP expression in adults is often associated with hepatoma or teratoma
- However, hereditary persistence of AFP may also be found in individuals with no obvious pathology
- The protein is thought to be the fetal counterpart of serum albumin, and AFP and albumin genes are present in tandem in the same transcriptional orientation on chromosome 4
- AFP is found in monomeric, dimeric, and trimeric forms
- AFP can also bind to copper ions, nickel ions, fatty acids and bilirubin
- The level of AFP in amniotic fluid is used to measure renal loss of protein to screen for spina bifida and anencephaly
- High level of serum AFP has been identified in patients with hepatocellular carcinomas (HCC), teratoblastoma, colorectal cancer, pancreatic cancer, and germ cell neoplasms.
