[Electrophoretic behaviour of serum and liver proteins and of some isoenzymes in rats receiving a steatogenous, hyperlipidic, hypoprotein diet, with and without choline].

Albino rats were kept for long periods on a steatogenous, hypoproteic, hyperlipidic diets, either with or without choline. Serum protein and liver soluble protein and enzyme values showed changes that were only partly similar to those observed in human and experimental cirrhosis. The main features, in fact, were an absolute and percent decrease in albumins, an increase in serum alpha1-globulins and alpha proteins generally, and, more particularly, a constant fall in gamma-globulins and enzymes migrating to this site.
