[Evaluation of the inflammatory process in hepatic disorders: immunochemistry of C alpha-reactive protein and of alpha 1-acid glycoprotein].
C-reactive protein (CRP) and alpha 1-acid glycoprotein (alpha 1-GPA) two acute phase reactants, have both been monitored in patients suffering from hepatocellular diseases, compared with healthy subjects. Immunochemical findings, in hepatic amebiasis, revealed a higher incidence of increased alpha 1-GPA levels (86% of patients, as compared to 46% for CRP), whereas during liver primitive cancer and cirrhosis inverse pattern occurs. In viral chronic hepatitis, lesser perturbations were observed. In contrast, a simultaneous increase of both proteins is strong supporting evidence for the severity of disease with an unfavourable prognostic.
