Effect of liver and renal dysfunction on circulating methionine-enkephalin immunoreactivity.

Plasma methionine-enkephalin (Met-Enk) immunoreactivity has been determined in 24 patients with varying degrees of renal impairment and 14 patients with hepatic failure. Plasma Met-Enk immunoreactivity correlated inversely with creatinine clearance (r = -0.71, P less than 0.001) but was not affected...
