Afp : Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) is a classic oncofetal antigen, normally produced by the fetal liver and yolk sac. Its re-expression in adults signals malignant transformation, establishing AFP as a primary serum and tissue-based tumor marker. Aberrant expression or modification of Afp is often implicated in… Read More »Afp
Adenovirus : Adenoviruses are non-enveloped DNA viruses capable of causing a wide range of infections, from respiratory illness to tissue-invasive disease, which can be life-threatening, particularly in immunocompromised patients. Aberrant expression or modification of Adenovirus is often implicated in the pathology of key diseases, making… Read More »Adenovirus
Smooth Muscle Actin (SMA) is the definitive intermediate filament protein found in smooth muscle cells and myofibroblasts.
