General description

Positive staining with anti-AFP is seen in hepatocytes of fetal liver and hepatoma.1,2  Since only traces of AFP are found in adult serum, elevated levels suggest either a benign or malignant lesion of the liver, a yolk sac carcinoma, or one of a few other tumors. Correspondingly, in conjunction with elevated serum levels, AFP has been immunohistochemically demonstrated in yolk sac tumor of gonadal and extragonadal sites, in hepatic malignancies, and a few other neoplasms.2-6

Developments in immunohistology allow the routine simultaneous use on tissue sections of three monoclonal antibodies, tagged with different fluorochromes. Such staining can identify seven different cell populations and the limiting factor is rapid, reliable and reproducible analysis. Future reliance on

5 human cases of hepatoma have been chosen with respect to their different seric alpha-fetoprotein (alpha-FP) level and histological characters. Cells producing alpha-FP have been studied with specific horseradish-peroxidase-labelled immunoglobulins. Ultrastructural examination shows that alpha-FP is present in the cytoplasm
