. The liver is one of the most important organs of the human body, performing a number of important functions. Among the common liver diseases, infiltrative pathologies we distinguished: fatty degeneration, lymphomas, amyloidosis, sarcoidosis and tuberculosis. Characterizing liver disease, the manifestations of disorders are divided into syndromes that help to diagnose a particular disease of the liver and determine its causes. In particular – the cytolytic syndrome (CS).The aim of the study – to examine the CS markers in the case of liver dysfunction in patients with newly diagnosed lung tuberculosis prior to treatment and after two months of therapy with first-line anti-tuberculosis drugs.Methods of the research. Two groups of people were examined: the 1st control group of practically healthy donors – 34 people; and the 2nd – patients with newly diagnosed pulmonary tuberculosis prior to treatment and after two months of therapy with first-line anti-tuberculosis drugs (31 people). All patients underwent standard biochemical blood tests, ultrasound of the liver in dynamics. The spectrum of biochemical blood test parameters included determination of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and γ-glutamyltranspeptidase (GGTP).Results and Discussion. The obtained data testifying to occurrence of CS in newly diagnosed tuberculosis patients before the start of treatment are confirmed by the tendency to increase the levels of AST and GGTP. Especially such changes are observed after intensive therapy with antituberculous drugs. There are likely changes in such markers as ALT, LDH and GGTP.Conclusions. It is established that tuberculous intoxication can affect the functional state of the liver. After prolonged treatment of patients with pulmonary tuberculosis, an increase in the indices of such markers of cytolysis as ALT, LDH and GGTP is observed. Disturbance of liver function during therapy may be due to the hepatotoxic effect of anti-tuberculosis drugs, which necessitates the appointment for patients hepatoprotectors.
