Target Information
Chicken Alpha-Fetoprotein (AFP) serves as a significant plasma protein during the embryonic stage of development. It is essential for liver development and is thought to offer protection against oxidative stress. In chickens, AFP likely participates in nutrient transport and the regulation of iron metabolism. Furthermore, it is under investigation for its potential as a biomarker for disease diagnosis and as an element in vaccine development due to its immunomodulatory characteristics.
