Numerous other candidate HCC biomarkers have been proposed, including lens culinaris agglutinin reactive AFP (AFP-L3), des-γ-carboxy prothrombin (DCP), prothrombin produced by vitamin K absence or antagonism II (PIVKA II), Golgi protein-73 (GP73), glypican-3 (GPC3), γ-glutamyl transferase (GGT), α-L-fucosidase (AFU), and alpha1-antitrypsin and apolipoprotein J (Apo-J) [4-8]. The gene discussed is AFP; the disease is hepatocellular carcinoma.
