The relationship between advanced oxidation protein products (<scp>AOPP</scp>) and biochemical and histopathological findings in patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis

Abstract

AOPP levels are significantly higher in patients with NASH than in those with ultrasonographically healthy liver. AOPP levels are positively correlated with biochemical and histopathological findings (NAS, liver inflammation and fibrosis), indicating that AOPP may play a role in the development of liver fibrosis and inflammation and may predict liver histopathology in NASH.
