Transferrin metabolism in alcoholic liver disease

The metabolism of transferrin was studied using purified 125I‐labeled transferrin in 11 alcoholic patients; six with fatty liver and five with cirrhosis. Six healthy subjects whose alcohol intake was les than 40 gm daily were studied as a control group.
