Abstract:
Oxidative albumin modification and impaired albumin binding function have been described both in chronic liver failure and for therapeutic albumin solutions. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of albumin infusion on redox state and binding function of circulating albumin. We studied 20 patients with cirrhosis who routinely received albumin infusions for prevention of post-paracentesis circulatory dysfunction or treatment of hepatorenal syndrome. We measured albumin fractions by redox state of cysteine-34 and albumin binding properties using dansylsarcosine as site II ligand. Therapeutic albumin solutions showed high contents of human nonmercaptalbumin-1 and human nonmercaptalbumin-2, exceeding the respective values in our patients with decompensated cirrhosis. An initial protocol for the first nine patients sampled at baseline, 24 h and 48 h after albumin infusion revealed no significant changes of oxidized albumin species or albumin binding properties. However, a modified protocol for the remaining 11 patients sampled at baseline, <1 h after and 24 h after albumin infusion revealed short-lived changes of oxidized albumin species while no changes in albumin binding properties were observed. In conclusion, therapeutic albumin infusion transiently changed albumin redox state but did not improve binding function of circulating albumin in chronic liver failure.
