Lysozyme in chronic liver disease: a biochemical and histological study.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Serum lysozyme activities and semiquantitative analysis of tissue lysozyme distribution were studied in patients with primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC), chronic hepatitis (CH), miscellaneous liver diseases, and normal subjects. Serum lysozyme was significantly raised in PBC and CH. Portal venous blood has similar lysozyme activities to peripheral venous blood in a group of various liver diseases. Lysozyme-containing intralobular cells were decreased in all liver diseases studied but portal tract lysozyme was increased only in PBC and CH. Thus the increase in serum lysozyme in PBC and CH appears to originate from the portal inflammatory infiltrate, seen in these diseases.

Background and Objective: Fatty liver disease occurs due to disturbances in lipid metabolism (increased fat synthesis and halting of catabolism) which eventually leads to the accumulation of large amounts of fat (triglycerides) in liver cells, that if left untreated lead to inflammation and cirrhosis. This study aimed to investigate the effect of concomitant use of HESA-A and atorvastatin on bi...

Background: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is one of the most important chronic liver disorders worldwide. Adipokines are polypeptide hormones that participate in the pathogenesis of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Adiponectin is an adipokine that stimulates fatty acid oxidation in muscle and plays a role in the development of insulin sensitivity. This study aimed to investigate the assoc...
