A three to eightfold increase in the activity of this enzyme was found in four cirrhotic livers compared with the mean value of four normal livers and two biopsies from patients with Gilbert's syndrome. Elevated hydroxylase levels were found also in five patients with hepatic dysfunction but without cirrhosis (four alcoholics and one patient with persistent hepatitis associated with serum smooth muscle antibody). It is suggested that the hepatic level of collagen proline hydroxylase may be a useful quantitative index of fibroblastic activity in human liver disease.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Autoradiographic studies of radioactive sulphate uptake in biopsy specimens from patients with chronic liver disease showed an exaggerated incorporation of isotope not only at sites of established fibrogenesis but also in the walls of sinusoids throughout the liver.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1136\/gut.15.4.260","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2007,9,18]],"date-time":"2007-09-18T17:41:31Z","timestamp":1190137291000},"page":"260-267","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":40,"title":["Collagen proline hydroxylase activity and\n                    <sup>35<\/sup>\n                    S sulphate uptake in human liver biopsies"],"prefix":"10.1136","volume":"15","author":[{"given":"J.
