GFAP is a 50kD intra-cytoplasmic filamentous protein of the cytoskeleton in astrocytes.
During the development of the central nervous system, it is a cell-specific marker that distinguishes astrocytes from other glial cells.
GFAP immunoreactivity has been shown in immature oligodendrocytes, epiglottic cartilage, pituicytes, papillary meningiomas, myoepithelial cells of the breast and in non-CNS: Schwann cells, salivary gland neoplasms, enteric glia cells, and metastasizing renal carcinomas.
