[Liver function in undisturbed pregnancy].
In order to evaluate liver function during pregnancy the enzyme activities of GPT, GOT, GLDH, LDH, AP, LAP, gamma-GT and CHE were determined in 272 healthy pregnant women from the 16th week of gestation up to term. The normal range of GPT, GOT, GLDH, LDH, gamma-GT and CHE did not differ significantly from those in non-pregnant women. Increases in AP and LAP are conditioned by placental synthesis. The functional reserves of a healthy liver obviously suffice to compensate for increased demands during pregnancy. Increases in enzyme aktivities during pregnancy are not physiologic - except for increases in AP and LAP.
