[Activity of angiotensin converting enzyme I and levels of acid alpha glycoprotein in selected liver and biliary tract diseases].
Differential value of ACE activity and acid alpha 1-glycoprotein was evaluated in the selected liver and biliary tract diseases. The study involved 75 patients divided into 4 subgroups, according to the character of their disease: patients with the acute viral hepatitis, chronic viral hepatitis, liver cirrhosis, and cholelithiasis. It was found that ACE activity was significantly increased in all pathologies involving liver parenchyma, and normal in patients with extrahepatic cholestasis. It was also shown that simultaneous assays of ACE and acid < alpha 1-glycoprotein may serve as a sensitive test differentiating jaundice in parenchymal hepatic diseases from that in the course of extrahepatic pathology.
