Objective During the process of liver fibrosis, type III procollagen is converted to type III collagen by cleavage of its amino terminal and carboxy terminal propeptides. Serum levels of amino terminal propeptide of type III procollagen (PIIINP) are

As chronic liver disease progresses, an imbalance occurs between synthesis and breakdown of extracellular matrix (ECM). Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are involved in degrading ECM while tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) prevent their

We have been privileged to start our academic careers at the begin ning of the decade in which the immunological roles and hypersensitivity diseases of the gastrointestinal tract and liver have been defined. In the early 1960s IgA was reported to b

Our aim was to determine if portal vein and hepatic artery blood flow indices are a noninvasive index of severity of liver disease in chronic hepatitis C. The effect of interferon-alpha treatment on liver blood flow was also studied. Liver blood flow

Hepatocyte growth factor is thought to be important in stimulating growth of the liver following injury. In this study we have measured serum levels of hepatocyte growth factor together with hepatocyte proliferation in liver biopsies, by detection of

In this study we have confirmed our earlier observation that the presence in pre-transplant serum of a high-molecular-weight lymphocyte Fcγ receptor blocking factor correlates with improved human renal allograft survival. This factor was found to bi
Aim: To investigate the natural history of patients with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis by means of a prospective histological study. Methods: One thousand five hundred and seventy one patients underwent liver biopsy at the Western Infirmary in Glasgo

Serum alpha-glutathione S-transferase (alpha-GST) has been shown to be a sensitive marker of liver injury. We compared the relationship of both serum alpha-GST and alanine transaminase (ALT) with liver biopsy inflammatory activity in patients who had
