• Such tumor markers are, for instance, CEA ( carcinoembryonic antigen ) and AFP ( alpha fetoprotein ).
• Alpha fetoprotein screening : Most doctors routinely offer pregnant patients this blood test as part of prenatal care.
• FHCC often does not produce alpha fetoprotein ( AFP ), a widely used marker for conventional hepatocellular carcinoma.
• Second trimester maternal serum screening ( AFP screening, triple screen, quad screen, or penta screen ) can check levels of alpha fetoprotein, ?-serum.
• Neural tube defects can be detected by prenatal blood testing that screens for a compound called alpha fetoprotein, or AFP . Providers of prenatal care in California are required by law to offer the test.
• There may be elevations in serum human chorionic gonadotropin ( hCG ) and alpha fetoprotein ( AFP ) levels but it would be in association with other tumors, ( e . g . yolk sac tumor ) because they themselves do not produce the serum markers.
• Immunostaining for most of the usual testicular germ cell tumour markers is negative ( " i . e . placental alkaline phosphatase ( PLAP ), vimentin, actin, desmin, alpha fetoprotein ( AFP ), OCT4, human chorionic gonadotropin ( hCG ), and carcinoembryonic antigen ( CEA ) ).
