Serum Alkaline Phosphatase
نویسنده
چکیده
phatase may reflect enzyme contributions from bone, liver, and intestine. We have investigated serum alkaline phosphatases in two siblings with hypophosphatasia. After administration of long-chain triglycerides, the major alkaline phosphatase component of their sera was shown to be of intestinal origin on the basis of inhibition by l-phenylalanine. Starch block electrophoresis suggested that there were other regions of l-phenylalanine-sensitive alkaline phosphatase in addition to the major slow-moving intestinal band. Medium-chain triglycerides which are absorbed by the portal route did not cause a similar augmentation of intestinal alkaline phosphatase activity. These studies indicate that serum levels of intestinal alkaline phosphatase are increased normally after long-chain fat feeding in hypophosphatasia and may be the major component of total serum alkaline phosphatase activity.

متن کاملMacromolecular alkaline phosphatase and an immunoglobulin G that inhibited alkaline phosphatase in a patient's serum.
Macromolecular alkaline phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.1) was found in the serum of a patient suffering from myasthenia gravis (adult type II) complicated with thymoma, and was shown by immunoelectrophoresis to be bound to immunoglobulins A and G (IgG). Placental alkaline phosphatase, complexed with either the patient's serum or IgG purified from the patient's serum, remained at the origin on electropho...
متن کاملSerum lipid concentrations change with serum alkaline phosphatase activity during pregnancy.
To investigate the relationship between serum lipids and alkaline phosphatase during normal pregnancy, we measured triglyceride, total cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, and LDL-cholesterol concentrations and alkaline phosphatase activity in serum samples from 546 apparently healthy pregnant, postpartum, and nonpregnant women. Serum HDL-cholesterol levels did not change significantly during pregnanc...
