'''Alpha-fetoprotein''' ('''AFP''') is a molecule produced in the developing [[embryo]] and [[fetus]]. Blood tests to measure AFP have two main applications: (1) in pregnant women, as a screening test for some kinds of [[congenital malformation]] and (2) in adults and children, as a [[tumor marker]] for some kinds of [[tumor]].

Title
L' '''Alfa-feto proteina''' ('''AFP''') e' una molecola...
L' '''Alfa-feto proteina''' ('''AFP''') è una molecola prodotta nell'[[embrione]] e nel [[feto]]durante la loro fase di sviluppo. Le analisi del sangue per misurare la AFP hanno due applicazioni principali: (1) per le donne in gravidanza, come esame di controllo per individuare alcune [[malformazioni congenite]] e (2) in adulti e bambini, come [[marker tumorale]] per alcuni tipi di [tumore]].
Remarks about the translation
Medical translations are tricky. I spent some time reading on AFP and My translation was not done 100% word-by-word but it was a compromise between keeping the exact meaning using as close a number of words as possible. In my translation I used the word "molecola" because you used the word "molecule". Perhaps you should have used the word "proteine". If so, just replace "molecola" with "proteina". Cheers, marco.
