Background Information
AFM (Afamin) is a member of the albumin superfamily, which comprises albumin, vitamin D-binding protein, a-fetoprotein, and afamin. AFM is present in the plasma/serum, cerebrospinal fluid, and follicular fluid, and functions as a vitamin E-binding protein. Alterations of expression level of AFM have been linked to variety of diseases like cancer.
