Beta-hexosaminidase, leucine aminopeptidase, cystidyl aminopeptidase, hepatic enzymes and bilirubin in serum of chronic alcoholics with acute ethanol intoxication.
beta-Hexosaminidase, leucine aminopeptidase, cystidyl aminopeptidase and routine liver parameters are studied in serum of chronic alcoholics with acute ethanol intoxication. The frequencies of pathological serum levels of the routine measurements made are in relatively good agreement with earlier reports. Serum leucine aminopeptidase and cystidyl aminopeptidase did now show any significant aberration in alcoholic liver disease. They correlated well with each other, and gamma-glutamyltransferase. beta-Hexosaminidase activity in serum was increased in almost all patients at the time of admission. All the patients showed decreasing values during the observation period.
