Type:

TF Antigen - Thomsen-Friedenreich Antigen / Galβ1-3GalNAc

Abbreviation: TF antigen, TF-Ag, T antigen, CD176

Type: Tumor-associated carbohydrate antigen / truncated O-glycan

Function: The Thomsen-Friedenreich antigen consists of galactose linked β1-3 to N-acetyl-D-galactosamine (Galβ1-3GalNAc), typically attached to serine or threonine residues of glycoproteins. In normal tissues this carbohydrate structure is usually further glycosylated or masked, whereas abnormal O-glycosylation in malignant cells can expose the TF antigen on the cell surface.

Cancer: ↑ Frequently increased or exposed in carcinomas. TF antigen expression is associated with abnormal tumor glycosylation, cell adhesion, galectin-3 interactions, invasion, endothelial attachment, and metastatic dissemination.
