Role of albumin in human physiology and pathophysiology.

JPEN. Journal of parenteral and enteral nutrition - 1 Jan 2000

Doweiko J P, Nompleggi D J

Abstract excerpt

Albumin is one of the major products of hepatic protein synthesis. Although it is a small molecule, it is an important diagnostic and prognostic determinant, as well as a useful therapeutic agent. A review of the evolution and structure of albumin as well as a description of its colloidal and buffering properties is presented. Synthesis, distribution, and catabolism, the major determinants of serum albumin level,...
