prothrombin response, serum proteins.

C. Possible Metastatic Cancer

Alkaline phosphatase, transaminases, and bilirubin.

If alkaline phosphatase and transaminases are high in

the presence of normal bilirubin and normal or mildly

increased BSP retention, one should suspect metastatic

cancer in the liver.

Serum protein changes in selected diseases

Disease Albumin Globulin β Globulin γ Globulin

Acute hepatitis N or Sl ↓ N or Sl ↑ Sl ↑ ↑ (IgG and M)

Laennec’s cirrhosis ↓ ↓ N Sl ↑ ↑ ↑ (IgM and A)

Chronic active hepatitis ↓ ↓ N ↑ ↑ ↑ (IgG)

Biliary cirrhosis ↓ ↑ ↑ ↑ ↑ (IgM)

Extrahepatic biliary obstruction N N or Sl ↑ ↑ N

N=normal Sl=slightly, ↓ = moderately depressed, ↓ ↓ = severely depressed, ↑ = moderately elevated, ↑ ↑ = markedly elevated
