Effect of hepatotoxic agents (carbon tetrachloride and dimethyl nitrosamine) on the rate of the haptoglobin and ceruloplasmin synthesis in liver tissue was studied. In impairment of hepatocytes in the central zone of liver lobes, the distinct decrease in content of haptoglobin was shown to occur with a simultaneous increase in content of ceruloplasmin in blood serum. When parenchyma of the central zone of liver lobes regenerated, the haptoglobin content tended to normalization. The data obtained suggest that the synthesis of haptoglobin and ceruloplasmin is carried out in different zones of liver tissue lobes: haptoglobin is mainly found in the central zone and ceruloplasmin -- in the peripheral one.

Blood specimens from 134 Oraon, a Dravidian-speaking tribe in Bihar, India, have been tested for haptoglobin, transferrin, ceruloplasmin, phosphoglucomutase, lactate dehydrogenase, albumin, and malate dehydrogenase types by starch gel electrophoresis. Low Hp1 and high TfD gene frequencies emerge.

Serial determinations of serum C-reactive protein are helpful in the detection and monitoring of postoperative complications associated with inflammation and/or tissue necrosis. The serum C-reactive protein level begins to increase within sex hours after operation, peaks on the second day, and by the third postoperative day begins to decrease toward the preoperative level. In cases with surgical complications involving inflammation, serum C-reactive protein levels remain elevated and do not show a decline on the third postoperative day. Serum levels of other "acute-phase proteins," such as alpha-1 acid glycoprotein, ceruloplasmin, alpha-1 antitrypsin, and haptoglobin, were found to increase in response to surgical procedures, but subsequent to the increase in C-reactive protein. These other proteins offer no additional information in monitoring the postoperative acutephase response,

Changes in the concentration of some serum proteins are determined by quantitative two-dimensional immunoelectrophoresis in rats subjected to continuous irradiation with 400R/day for 11 days. At this dose rate albumin levels were decreased by 36% and IGG levels by 70% in comparison with the control (C2) values. The concentration of haptoglobin, haemopexin and caeruloplasmin was increased by 75-140% on day 10 as compared with the control (C2) values.

In blood serum of 195 male rats an effect of different thyroid hormones on alterations in content of glycoprotein fractions and their separate carbohydrate containing components was simultaneously studied. A correlation was established between alterations in the glycoprotein fractions and content of seromucoids, sialic acids, hexoses associated with proteins, hexosamine, haptoglobin, transferrin, ceruloplasmin and fucose in blood serum. Dynamics of alterations of these values was studied. The normalization of the tests studied was correlated with the type of hormone used, its dose, duration of the hormone administration and the emotional state of the animals. The mechanisms of alterations in content of the blood glycoproteins, their interrelationship and biosynthesis are discussed.

Phenotypes of the cells developing into small colonies after days of primary culture of adult rat hepatocytes in serum-free modified Dulbecco Modified Eagles' medium containing 10 mM nicotinamide and 10 ng/ml epidermal growth factor were analyzed immunocytochemically, cytochemically and ultrastructurally. Albumin, cytokeratin 8 and 18 were seen by immunocytochemical techniques in the cells of the small colonies at Day 6. Transferrin, alpha 1-antitrypsin, ceruloplasmin, and haptoglobin, proteins secreted by mature hepatocytes, were faintly stained in these cells as was alpha-fetoprotein. These proteins were secreted into the culture medium as evidenced by immunoblot analysis. gamma-Glutamyltransferase, alkaline phosphatase and glucose 6-phosphatase were not present in the cells of the small colonies as well as the surrounding hepatocytes at Day 6 of culture. In addition, ultrastructural examinations of the cells in the small colonies indicated that these cells not only had many characteristic mitochondria and desmosomes, but also a few small peroxisomes. Such cells, even after 20 days in culture were proliferating, as evidenced by the intranuclear presence of the proliferating cell nuclear antigen. The potential relation of these cells to hepatocytes which may serve as the principal reserve for replicating hepatocytes is discussed.

Haptoglobin, transferrin, alpha-1-feto-protein (AFP), alpha-1-acid glycoprotein (AAGP) and caeruloplasmin levels were estimated in 14 "small for dates" (SFD) and 31 "appropriate for dates" (AFD) babies by the single radial immunodiffusion method. The mean caeruloplasmin levels was observed to be significantly reduced in the SFD babies when compared with the AFD babies (t = 3.4582, P < 0.02). None of the other 4 acute phase proteins showed any significant differences in mean concentration between the SFD babies and the controls. The diminished caeruloplasmin levels observed in SFD babies agrees with previous reports in post-natal undernutrition. Our findings of no significant differences in the other 4 acute phase proteins between SFD and AFD babies are however at variance with previous observations of elevated levels of AFP, haptoglobin and AAGP and reduced levels of transferrin in malnourished infants.

In 25 patients with chronic renal failure, treated with haemodialysis (13 patients with chronic non-A, non-B hepatitis, and 12 cases without evidence of hepatocellular damage), and in 20 healthy persons, blood serum concentrations were determined of prealbumin, ceruloplasmin, alpha 2-macroglobulin, and haptoglobin. It was found that the concentrations of these proteins in both subgroups of patients were not significantly different. The concentration of prealbumin was higher, and that of alpha 2-macroglobulin and haptoglobin was significantly lower in comparison with healthy subjects.

In proliferative diseases of the homeopathic system before starting and at the end of treatment, the values of 8 acute phase factors were studied simultaneously, that is: seromucoid, sialic acid, alpha 1 acid glycoprotein, alpha 1 antitrypsin, haptoglobin, ceruloplasmin, transferrin, and fibrinogen. In chronic myeloid and lymphatic leukaemia no constant increase nor decrease of the concentration of any of the factors was found. In non-Hodgkin lymphoma the concentration of one factor -ceruloplasmin was constantly increased, and that of two factors--sialic acid and fibrinogen was decreased, while in plasmocytoma the concentration of two factors--haptoglobin and ceruloplasmin was constantly increased. At the end of treatment the concentration of certain factors was changing. In chronic myeloid leukaemia the concentration of ceruloplasmin, fibrinogen, and seromucoid was decreasing, while in non-Hodgkin lymphoma the concentration of haptoglobin and fibrinogen was increasing, in chronic lymphatic leukaemia the concentration of haptoglobin and increasing, in chronic lymphatic leukaemia the concentration of haptoglobin and transferrin was increasing, and in plasmocytoma the concentration was increasing of haptoglobin, sialic acid, and transferrin. The result of treatment in chronic myeloid leukaemia was good, in non-Hodgkin lymphoma and chronic lymphatic leukaemia--moderate, and in plasmocytoma it was least beneficial.

In the serum of 41 children with trisomy 21 (Down syndrome) the concentration was determined of 10 proteins by the radial immunodiffusion method. It was found that the concentration of prealbumin and alpha 2-macroglobulin was lower than in healthy children. The concentration of acid alpha 1-glycoprotein, alpha 1-antitrypsin, haptoglobin, C4 complement component, and hemopexin was higher than in healthy children. The concentration of ceruloplasmin, C3 complement component, and transferrin was similar as in healthy children.
