Diagnostic significance of plasma prolidase activity in chronic liver diseases / 第三军医大学学报

ABSTRACT

The activity of plasma prolidase(PLD)was determined in patients with various chronic liver diseases.It was found that the activity of plasma PLD was increased significantly in 45 patients with cirrhosis and 31 patients with chronic active hepatitis.The plasma level of PLD was not correlated with the serum level of ALP.Plasma PLD was negatively correlated with serum albumin and positively correlated with serum gammablobulin.These findings suggest that the determination of the activity of plasma prolidase may be helpful in the diagnosis of chronic liver diseases.
