[Alcoholic hyalin and interstitial filaments as markers of alcoholic damage of internal organs].
Biopsies of the liver, stomach, pancreas, small salivary glands, lung of patients with chronic alcoholism were studied morphologically including ultrastructural analysis. The formation of fibrillar alcoholic hyalin in hepatocytes is the most characteristic ultrastructural feature of the liver alcoholic damage. Accumulation of intermediate filaments in the epithelial cells of the stomach, pancreas, small salivary glands, stomach macrophages is a characteristic sign of the alcoholic damage to these organs. This disturbance of the structural organization of the cytoskeleton seems to reflect secretory insufficiency of the epithelium and failure of macrophagal function.
