Low serum prealbumin may be related to decreased liver function, malnutrition and other reasons.
1. Decline in liver function: pre-serum albumin is produced by human liver cells, and its half-life is shorter than other plasma proteins, so it can reflect the damage to liver cells more sensitively. When liver function declines, it can lead to a decrease in the production of pre-serum albumin, resulting in a decrease in the value.
2. Malnutrition: Because serum prealbumin belongs to protein, its generation needs to rely on protein raw materials, when the body protein is seriously reduced, malnutrition, can lead to its synthesis is reduced, the phenomenon of low serum prealbumin.
When the human body serum prealbumin is low, you need to clarify the cause under the guidance of the doctor, in order to actively treat.
