Brief Summary:
The main objective of this study is the comparison of the profile of the pro-inflammatory cytokines at the patients suffering from an alcoholic hepatitis to that of two groups witnesses: patients suffering from an alcoholic cirrhosis and unhurt patients of chronic liver disease

Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. the expression of proinflammatory cytokines [ Time Frame: Baseline ]
    Proinflammatory Cytokines (TNF, IL-1, IL-6, IL-8)


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. the expression of genetic variants of pro-inflammatory cytokines [ Time Frame: Baseline ]
    Identification of genetic variants of pro-inflammatory cytokines that contribute to mortality of Alcoholic Liver Disease

  2. Cell lysis (AST, ALT, CK18 cleaved) [ Time Frame: Baseline ]
  3. Regeneration markers (Ki-67, Fn14, CK7) [ Time Frame: Baseline ]

Ages Eligible for Study:   18 Years to 70 Years   (Adult, Older Adult)
Sexes Eligible for Study:   All
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:   No
Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • group A: patients with acute alcoholic hepatitis
  • Active alcohol abuse defined by DSM IV and excessive alcohol consumption prior to admission (> 60 g per day for men and> 40 g per day for women)
  • Moderate elevation of transaminases (less than 500 U / L) with a typical ASAT / ALAT ratio of 2: 1
  • Bilirubin> 50 mg / l
  • Absence of autoimmune liver disease (ANA <1/80, AML <1/80, LKM1 neg, AAM neg)
  • Absence of hepatitis B and C and HIV infection (negative anti-HIV antibodies, negative HBsAg, negative HCV PCR)
  • Patients with other acute complications than alcoholic hepatitis may be included (eg, digestive hemorrhage, acute renal failure, infection, etc.)
  • Because there is no validated noninvasive tool for the diagnosis of alcoholic hepatitis, histological confirmation is required in all patients (preferably by transjugular biopsy): alcoholic hepatitis will be diagnosed on the presence of the following histological characteristics: Hepatocellular lesions (ballooning, Mallory body)/ Inflammatory infiltrate with polymorphonuclear neutrophils
  • group B1: patients with alcoholic cirrhosis
  • Decompensated or non-decompensated alcoholic cirrhosis, defined according to the HAS guidelines, ie by a liver biopsy or a cluster of clinico-biological arguments (www.has-sante.fr)
  • group B2: patients free from chronic liver disease
  • Justification of blood and liver sampling for the management of a pathology other than chronic liver disease (eg liver metastasis of digestive cancer occurring on healthy liver)

Exclusion Criteria:

  • For groups A and B1:
  • Patients with hepatocellular carcinoma of progressive non-hepatic cancer
  • Presence of HBsAg
  • Presence of anti-HCV antibodies by positive PCR
  • Presence of antibodies to HIV 1 +2
  • Pregnancy
  • for group B2:
  • Alcoholic liver disease
  • Presence of HBsAg
  • Presence of anti-HCV antibodies by positive PCR
  • Presence of antibodies to HIV 1 +2
  • Pregnancy
