Up to date have demonstrated that more and more young people are affected by chronic liver diseased. There is a close relationship between the liver and endocrine system as far as hormone inactivation, synthesis of growth factors, proteins binding hormones and proteins binding growth factors in the liver are related. Impairment of the hepatocyte function may lead to disturbed homeostasis of the endocrine system. Current opinions on growth hormone (GH)--insulin-like growth factors (IGFs)--insulin-like growth factors binding proteins (IGFBPs) axis activity in men with chronic liver diseases are presented.
