MONOCLONAL ANTIBODIES TO HUMAN ALPHA-FETOPROTEIN
Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), a serum glycoprotein belonging to the onco-developmental proteins group, serves as a marker both in cancer research and in studies concerning fetal development and fetal pathophysiology. Monoclonal anti-AFP antibodies are essential reagents in developing appropriate techniques for measurement of this protein. In this study, in order to produce anti-AFP monoclonal a...
متن کاملAlpha-fetoprotein levels in amniotic fluids from spontaneous abortions.
Alpha-fetoprotein (A.F.P.) levels in the amniotic fluid were determined in 54 cases of spontaneous abortion in which the amniotic sac remained intact. These levels were correlated with the morphological and cytogenetic status of the fetus. Of the 29 fetuses with no apparent abnormality 22 had A.F.P. levels below 50 mug/ml, while 10 of the 11 fetuses with severe neural tube defects had raised le...

متن کاملIn-vitro stability of human alpha-fetoprotein.
We assessed the stability of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) in clinical specimens in the presence and absence of serum and albumin, at different temperatures and concentrations. We find it depends on both AFP concentration and incubation temperature. Dilution of most specimens with either phosphate buffer or phosphate-buffered saline or by immunoelectrodiffusion resulted in some loss of AFP. Attempts ...
متن کاملThe clinical significance of human alpha-fetoprotein.
Deviations from the normal of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) concentrations in fetal serum, amniotic fluid, maternal serum and adult human serum can be explained by understanding the normal physiology and the pathophysiology of AFP synthesis and metabolism. AFP is the prototype of oncofetal markers. Emphasis is given to the usefulness of elevated serum AFP levels on the diagnosis and management of pri...
