Serum alkaline phosphatase in hypophosphatasia [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Investigation, 1971
It is recognized that serum alkaline phosphatase may reflect enzyme contributions from bone, liver, and intestine. We have investigated serum alkaline phosphatases in two siblings with hypophosphatasia. After administration of long-chain triglycerides, the major alkaline phosphatase component of their sera was shown to be of intestinal origin on the ...
