Alfafetoproteína en Pediatría

Abstract: La alfafetoprotefna (AFP) es la fracci6n mayor de las protefnas sericas del embrion y es la primera de las globulinas alfa que aparece en el suero de los mamiferos. Fue descubierta por Pedersen, en 1944, en el suero de bovinos; ma's tarde Bergstrand encontr6 una proteina similar en el feto humano y Tatarinov la describi6 en la sangre del cordon.Estudios posteriores demostraron que la "fetuina" de Pedersen era una mezcla de 2 proteinas: una, de movilidad alias-beta T , y la otra de movilidad alfai, la unica rea… Show more

“…Reports in the literature, although not always consistent, now indicate that the measurement of AFP blood concentrations may be useful in the detection and/or differentiation of at least 18 newborn and infant disorders and possibly even more. These newborn disorders include ataxia telangiectasia (30,39), hereditary tyrosinemia (12,13), Indian childhood cirrhosis (9,28), biliary hypoplasia (1, 42), biliary atresia (36,42), hyperbilirubinaemia (23,31,32), Rhisoimmunizations (29), yolk sac tumors (6), testicular carcinoma and hepatoma (26,35), hepatoblastoma (6), prematurity (1), neonatal hepatitis (9,42), physiologic jaundice (20,34), infantile obstructive jaundice (27), choledochal cysts (27,42), and possibly cystic fibrosis (10,31), hypothyroidism (33), and ependymoblastoma (18). Although the diagnostic specificity of AFP detection might appear diminished, the range of identifiable perinatal problems may actually be increased.…”
