The inefficiency of the immune system to kill cancer cells leads to the disease. Like in
pregnancy, oncofetal proteins counteract the immune attack. Alpha-fetoprotein is an …

Alpha-fetoprotein is an oncofetal protein the embryo produces during fetal development. The
protein serves two critical functions simultaneously: it delivers nutrients to growing embryo …

Conclusion Recombinant human AFP is close to becoming a registered drug [17]. Then it
could be provided to patients together with registered drugs-teratogens and AFP-binding …

This book examines the crucial role of a unique alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) in the treatment of
cancer. AFP can deliver toxins through specific receptors re-expressed in the majority of …

Alpha-fetoprotein is a shuttle protein that delivers nutrients through receptor-mediated
endocytosis to embryotic cells. In adults, alpha-fetoprotein can shuttle drugs into alpha …

Monoclonal antibodies against human α-fetoprotein (AFP) were obtained by the hybridoma
technique and studied with regard to their reactivities with the human hepatoma cell lines …

PIP: Immunological character of alpha fetoprotein (AFP) was investigated in respect to
immunological relationship of human and animal AFP; responses to the injection of …

α-fetoprotein has long been considered the 'gold-standard 'in the field of tumor markers.
During the several decades since the recognition of mammalian α-fetoprotein as a tumor …

Mouse hepatoma BW7756, a primary hepatocellular carcinoma of spontaneous origin, has
been presently employed as a tumor cell model for the in vitro study of tumor-associated …

The alpha-fetoprotein receptor (AFPR) is a novel target for cancer therapeutics. It is
expressed on most cancers and myeloid derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) but generally …
