Figure 8

Western blot analysis of AFP expression in the rat liver. The fetal AFP-RNA is translated into a 68 kDa and 70 kDa protein. The smaller AFP-RNA transcripts are translated into smaller protein products (58 kDa, 54 kDa and 44 kDa). The strongest expression of fetal AFP protein could be detected in the fetal liver. After PH and 2-AAF treatment, a clearly weaker expression of proteins with a size of 68 kDa and 70 kDa could be seen; but no smaller protein products could be observed. In the case of the normal PH and of the normal control (no co), beside a weak 68 kDa signal also a smaller protein product could be detected.
