Hydroxyproline ratio in a normal liver kept a fair degree of reproducibility. In the presence of hepatic fibrosis, the levels of hydroxyproline may vary significantly between samples from a single liver and may have limited value in quantifying the extent of fibrosis.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
