Scope note: Proteínas segregadas a la sangre en cantidades aumentadas o disminuidas por los hepatocitos en respuesta a traumatismo, inflamación o enfermedad. Estas proteíunas pueden servir como inhibidores o mediadores de los procesos inflamatorios. Se han utilizado ciertas proteínas de fase aguda para diagnosticar o seguir el curso de enfermedades o como marcadores tumorales.

Scope note: Proteins that are secreted into the blood in increased or decreased quantities by hepatocytes in response to trauma, inflammation, or disease. These proteins can serve as inhibitors or mediators of the inflammatory processes. Certain acute-phase proteins have been used to diagnose and follow the course of diseases or as tumor markers.
