In 28 patients suffering from alcoholic well compensated hepatopathy, different laboratory parameters have been controlled before and after treatment with arginine thiazolidinecarboxylate, i.v. a the daily dose of 800 mg for 7-10 days. The compartmental analysis showed that the improvement in the BSF clearance is mainly due to a reduction in the "regurgitation fraction" and therefore to an improvement or restoration of the processes of conjugation, binding and transferring of the dye in the liver cells. A significant increase in platelets and an equally significant decrease in bilirubinemia, gamma GT, OCT, GOT and alkaline phosphatase were reported. Such variations might be at any rate due to the sole alcohol abstinence. The observed increase in transferrin, haptoglobin and albumin cannot be reported to the sole abstinence, but must be considered as consequence of the pharmacological influence, of arginine thiazolidinecarboxylate on the protidosynthetic activities of the liver.

5 serum protein polymorphic systems (haptoglobin, alkaline phosphatase, group-specific (Gc) proteins, beta2-glycoprotein 1 and leucine aminopeptidase) and 6 red-cell polymorphisms (adenosine deaminase, adenylate kinase, phosphoglucomutase, glutamic-pyruvic transaminase, phosphogluconate dehydrogenase and acid phosphatase) have been investigated in 54 subjects with tuberous sclerosis. The frequencies of all systems were compared with those of a control sample drawn from a similar mentally retarded population and abnormal distributions were detected in the haptoglobin and Gc system. Quantitative estimation of the serum levels of the Gc protein failed to detect any inter-group differences. Data on the deviations from the Hardy-Weinberg equlibrium, Haldane's Log ratio test between groups, and gene frequencies of both test and control groups are given. It is suggested that selection by mortality is the possible causation for the abnormal distribution of the Gc phenotypes, but the haptoglobin phenotype distribution requires further investigation with care being taken in the selection of control subjects.

3 preparations of 17beta-estradiol and norethisterone acetate were administered to 34 climacteric and 175 postmenopausal women to treat climacteric symptoms and symptoms of estrogen deficiency. 56 women were treated with trisekvens (Group 1), 131 with trisekvens forte (Group 2), and 22 with estrofem forte (Group 3). Triglycerides, cholesterol, calcium, sodium and potassium ions, alkaline phosphatase, creatinine, glucose, protein, albumin, haptoglobin, zinc sulphate, iron, TIBC, bilirubin, ALAT and ASAT, and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), and low polar estrogens (LPE) were measured. All patients exhibited lowered S-cholesterols which reverted to normal after 6 months treatment. S-triglycerides were unchanged except in Group 1 patients where there was a slight increase after 24 months use (p .01). Serum FSH and LH decreased during treatment and this decrease was most pronounced in Groups 2 and 3. Serum LPE levels increased in Group 1, for climacteric women, to normal luteal values and in postmenopausal women to proliferation values. In groups 2 and 3, serum LPG for postmenopausal women reached luteal values. Climacteric symptoms disappeared with therapy and there was an improvement in symptoms caused by estrogen deficiency. 34 patients discontinued treatment, 14 changing to another preparation. These preparations were well tolerated with few side effects.

In 51 untreated cases of ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease some cellular (neutrophil alkaline phosphatase activity, neutrophil NBT reducing capacity, and neutrophil and plasma lysozyme activities) and humoral (serum orosomucoid and serum haptoglobin) indices of disease activity were quantitated. The most pronounced signs of disease activity, thus, were found in severe cases of ulcerative colitis. Combining lysozyme activities with other disease activity indices seems to facilitate the distinction between severe cases of Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. Beyond this the addition of the humoral indices seemed not to offer substantial help.

Polymorphism for the number of the blood proteins (transferrin, alkaline phosphatase, haptoglobin, plasma esterase and erythrocyte esterase) have been exposed by means of starch gel electrophoresis of northern fur seal Callorhinus ursinus from three regions: Pelagic of Commander Islands (n = 164), Rockery of Robben Island (Sakhalin population, n = 308), winter todder region to the east of Honshu Island (n = 110). The reliable differences have been exposed between fur seals of the Commander and Sakhalin populations by the gene frequencies Tf and Es pl. Fur seals from winter todder region turned out to be closer to Commander population, that to the Robben one. However, originality of gene frequencies of locus Ap (alkaline phosphatase), revealed from the todder region animals, is difficult to explain by the mixture of the Commander and Robben population only. Perhaps, this originality is caused by the influence of Pribylov population. It is established that hemoglobin of northern fur seal consists of two components (Hb I + Hb II). Individual variability of hemoglobin results in the variation of the colour intensity of the "slow" component (Hb II).

In women employed in an industrial plant in direct contact with epoxide resins and their hardeners, the following biochemical parameters were determined in blood: total protein, seromucoid, haptoglobin, hemoglobin variants, methemoglobin, alpha1-inhibitor of trypsin, lactate dehydrogenase, aspartate and alanine aminotransferases, alkaline and acid phosphatase, gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase, leucylaminopeptidase, and alanine aminopeptidase. Depending on duration of work, Hb A2 fraction and lactate dehydrogenase increased significantly, and aspartate aminotransferase, acid and alkaline phosphatase activities decreased. In pregnant women, leucylaminopeptidase activity and isozyme of placental alkaline phosphatase were decreased.

In 47 patients with hepatocellular or obstructive jaundice and 20 healthy controls the alkaline phosphatase isoenzyme pattern was determined by means of electrophoresis on polyacrylamide gel. It was demonstrated that the main activity of alkaline phosphatase (AP) in healthy subjects was connected with beta globulins while beta lipoproteins contained only traces of this activity. In hepatocellular jaundice during viral hepatitis only a slight rise was found of the activities of isoenzymes present in healthy subjects, and no zones of additional activity were found. In obstructive jaundice of benign as well malignant etiology the beta lipoprotein zone increased also significantly, moreover an additional activity zone was revealed moving in the gel together with alpha2macroglobulins. In 40% of cases of obstructive jaundice caused by metastatic malignant neoplasms in the liver a 4-fraction isoenzyme pattern of AP was demonstrated with additional activity in the haptoglobin zone.

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.

Serum proteins were fractionated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis under denaturing conditions and transferred to nitrocellulose membranes. The blotted polypeptides were probed with biotinylated Ricinus communis lectin (RCA120) followed by streptavidin/alkaline phosphatase. This procedure detected five asialoglycoproteins (alpha 2-macroglobulin, transferrin, alpha 1-antitrypsin, alpha 1-antichymotrypsin and haptoglobin beta chain). The asialoform of the alpha 1-trypsin inhibitor was found to be decreased in inflammation.

Polymorphism of the AB0 blood groups, haptoglobin Hp, vitamin-D-binding protein (Gc), transferrin (Tf), alpha 1-antitrypsin (alpha 1-AT) and serum alkaline phosphatase (Pp) was studied in a group of children suffering from rickets (VDDR) and in a adequate control group of healthy individuals of the same sex-age composition. Considerable differences were revealed between the VDDR patients and healthy individuals in frequencies of the PIM1 and PIM2 factors on the alpha 1-AT system, r and p of the AB0 system as well as the Hp. Increase in a portion of one of the homozygotes for the Hp and for the alpha 1-AT system took place at the expense of other homozygote proportion (the latter being decreased). Heterozygotes frequencies remained intact in both compared groups. Atypical combination of phenotypes and gene frequencies was observed in a group of patients in the alpha 1-AT and AB0 systems as compared with usual distribution in European population. Higher frequencies of rare alleles of the loci under study were observed in the VDDR patients, which is partially reflected in increase in heterozygosity level in total within a cogort of patients analysed. Combination of the Hp 1-1 (Hp)--A(AB0)--M2M2 (alpha 1-AT) factors should be considered as unfavourable in rickets prognosis.
