  • Title: [The behavior of lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) in acute viral hepatitis and post-hepatitis cirrhosis].
    Author: Falsetti F, Proto C, Fernicola C, Ielasi G.
    Journal: Minerva Med; 1979 Jan 31; 70(5):399-404. PubMed ID: 440618.
    Abstract:
    The behaviour of LCAT was examined in acute viral hepatitis and post-hepatic cirrhosis. In the former case, the enzyme was also investigated during remissions. The influence of cholestasis on LCAT activity was evaluated. Depression was noted in cirrhosis and the acute stage of hepatitis, whereas enhanced values were observed during remissions. Depression of the enzyme by cholestasis is explained in a variety of ways.
