[Lipid peroxidation and blood serum peroxidase activity in diseases of the hepatobiliary system]
Abstract:
Patients with hepatobiliary pathology showed an augmentation of peroxide oxidation of lipids (LP), its degree dependent upon the severity of the clinical course of the medical condition in question, being the highest in those patients with viral hepatitis, carcinoma of the head of pancreas, and portal cirrhosis of the liver. A parallel investigation into the blood serum peroxidase activity, the main indicator of the antioxidant activity, in the above patients, showed a noticeable decrease in PA activity. LP and blood serum PA measurements allow some judgement about the gravity of the course of hepatobiliary pathology and effectiveness of the therapy adopted.

Diseases of the Liver and Gallbladder
Cirrhosis is characterized by the scarring of hepatic lobules in the liver, which are replaced by fibrous tissue, affecting the liver's normal functioning. NAFLD, on the other hand, is caused by an excessive build-up of fat in the liver, not related to...

Serum lipids are fats and fatty substances in the blood and are crucial for various bodily functions, including energy storage, cellular structure, and hormone production. Serum lipids consist of cholesterol, triglycerides, and phospholipids.
Cholesterol is a soft, fat-like substance found in all body cells. It is crucial for producing hormones, vitamin D, and substances that aid...
