Background Information
AFP (Alpha-fetoprotein) is a major plasma protein in the fetus and its concentration is very low in the adult (PMID:24120489). AFP can be detected at abnormally high concentrations in hepatocellular carcinomas as well as in the plasma and ascitic fluid of adults with hepatoma, indicating that AFP can serve as a tumor marker (PMID: 18669658). AFP is also a glycosylated protein and based on its binding capability to lectin Lens Culinaris Agglutinin (LCA), and total AFP can be separated into three different glycoforms, AFP-L1, AFP-L2, and AFP-L3. Core-fucosylated form of AFP (AFP-L3) is a more specific indicator than total AFP for HCC (PMID: 33128033, 35458505)
