[Plasma fibronectin level in patients with chronic diseases of the liver]. 1991

N V Topchiĭ, and A V Fedotov, and G I Mamtseva, and N F Deĭneko, and N A Fedorov

The diagnostic value of determination of plasma fibronectin in chronic hepatic diseases was examined on the basis of the data available in the literature and the authors' own results of studies. The procedure for measuring fibronectin in healthy subjects and patients with hepatic cirrhoses and chronic persistent hepatitis is briefly outlined. Possible mechanisms of fibronectin level alterations are discussed in these pathological processes.

D005353 Fibronectins Glycoproteins found on the surfaces of cells, particularly in fibrillar structures. The proteins are lost or reduced when these cells undergo viral or chemical transformation. They are highly susceptible to proteolysis and are substrates for activated blood coagulation factor VIII. The forms present in plasma are called cold-insoluble globulins.
