Association of Serum Cytokeratin-18 Fragment Concentration in Patients with Different Types of Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is one of the most common forms of chronic liver diseases worldwide. The prevalence of NAFLD was 15% in the Asian population. In a study, NASH was observed in 42.4% of NAFLD cases in Bangladesh. It is a serious clinical problem because of its worldwide distribution and potential adverse sequel. Cytokeratin-18 fragment is a marker of hepatocyte apoptosis....
متن کاملThe association of serum omentin-1 levels with biochemical parameters in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease
Background: The incidence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is increasing due to the growing epidemics of obesity. Omentin-1 is an anti-inflammatory adipokine produced preferentially by visceral adipose tissue. The aim of this study was to determine omentin-1 serum levels and its relationship with body mass index, fasting blood sugar and lipid profile. Materials and methods: This cas...
متن کاملSerum Cytokeratin-18 Is Associated with NOX2-Generated Oxidative Stress in Patients with Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver
Background & Aims. Hepatocyte apoptosis may play a role in progression of nonalcoholic fatty liver and oxidative stress seems one of the key mechanisms responsible for liver damage. The aim was to determine the association of oxidative stress with cytokeratin-18 M30 fragment levels, a marker of hepatocyte apoptosis. Methods. Steatosis severity was defined according to Hamaguchi's echographic cr...
متن کاملAdipocytokines and cytokeratin-18 in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease: Introduction of CHA index.
BACKGROUND AND RATIONALE Insulin resistance (IR), adipocytokines, oxidative stress and hepatic apoptosis play a pathogenetic role in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). AIMS The evaluation of specific adipocytokines and markers of IR, oxidative stress and apoptosis in NAFLD patients; the introduction of a combined non-invasive index for nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). MATERIAL AN...
متن کاملSerum cytokeratin 18 fragment level as a noninvasive biomarker for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.
BACKGROUND AND AIM We evaluated the usefulness of serum cytokeratin 18 fragment (CK18-F) as a noninvasive biomarker in differentiating nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) from nonalcoholic fatty liver (NAFL) since the prognosis of the 2 diseases differ. METHODS 116 Japanese patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) proven by liver biopsy were studied. Histological findings were c...
