Thus changes in liver protein synthesis rates in conjunction with catabolism and acute inflammation in man need to be characterized better. The aim of the present study was to measure protein synthesis rates of total liver protein and albumin during a state of acute inflammation. Patients (n=10) undergoing acute laparoscopic cholecystectomy due to acute cholecystitis were investigated. FSRs (fractional synthesis rates) of total liver protein (liver biopsy specimens) and albumin (plasma samples) were investigated as early as possible during the surgical procedure, using a flooding dose of L-[2H5]phenylalanine. The results were compared with a reference group of patients without cholecystitis undergoing elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy (n=17). FSR of total liver protein was 60% higher (P&amp;lt;0.001) and the FSR of albumin was 45% higher (P&amp;lt;0.01) in the cholecystitis patients compared with the control group. In conclusion, the synthesis rates of total liver protein and albumin are both increased in patients with an acute general inflammatory reaction undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1042\/cs20050222","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2005,12,14]],"date-time":"2005-12-14T12:57:04Z","timestamp":1134565024000},"page":"93-99","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1042\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":46,"title":["Synthesis rates of total liver protein and albumin are both increased in patients with an acute inflammatory response"],"prefix":"10.1042","volume":"110","author":[{"given":"Hans","family":"Barle","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anaesthesiology\/Intensive Care, Danderyd Hospital, S-182 88 Stockholm, Sweden"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Folke","family":"Hammarqvist","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Gastrocentrum, Department of Surgery, Centre for Surgical Sciences, Karolinska Institutet, Karolinska University Hospital at Huddinge, S-141 86 Stockholm, Sweden"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Bo","family":"Westman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Gastrocentrum, Department of Surgery, Centre for Surgical Sciences, Karolinska Institutet, Karolinska University Hospital at Huddinge, S-141 86 Stockholm, Sweden"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Maria","family":"Klaude","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anaesthesiology\/Intensive Care, Centre for Surgical Sciences, Karolinska Institutet, Karolinska University Hospital at Huddinge, S-141 86 Stockholm, Sweden"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Olav","family":"Rooyackers","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anaesthesiology\/Intensive Care, Centre for Surgical Sciences, Karolinska Institutet, Karolinska University Hospital at Huddinge, S-141 86 Stockholm, Sweden"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Peter\u00a0J.","family":"Garlick","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Animal Sciences, University of Illinois, Urbana, IL 61801, U.S.A."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jan","family":"Wernerman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anaesthesiology\/Intensive Care, Centre for Surgical Sciences, Karolinska Institutet, Karolinska University Hospital at Huddinge, S-141 86 Stockholm, Sweden"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"288","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2005,12,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"2021120120501109200_B1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"10271","DOI":"10.1016\/S0021-9258(18)34015-8","article-title":"The acute phase response of plasma protein synthesis during experimental inflammation","volume":"257","author":"Schreiber","year":"1982","journal-title":"J.
