Abstract
Serial measurements of alkaline phosphatase and 5'-nucleotidase multiple forms in two patients undergoing surgical procedures to release biliary obstruction suggested an inverse relationship between high-M(r) isoforms and serum bile acids concentrations. Furthermore, the study of several groups of patients with cholestatic disorders confirmed this inverse correlation. Mechanisms responsible for these observations are discussed.
