Leukocyte arylsulfatase A activity in patients with alcohol-related cirrhosis

Article Abstract:

This article discusses the possible dimineshment of arylsulfatase (ASA) in subjects with alcohol-related cirrhosis having encephalopathic manifestations. Results revealed that subjects with alcohol cirrhosis and encephalopathy showed less enzymatic activity than a control group, and subjects without encephalopathy showed an ASA value less than the control group.
