Serum Alanine Aminotransferase Flares In Chronic Hepatitis B: The Good and The Bad
Chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection follows a dynamic and variable course. At different stages in the disease, hepatitis flares may occur, which can be challenging to predict and manage.

Paralogous ALT1 and ALT2 retention and diversification have generated catalytically active and inactive aminotransferases in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Gene duplication and the subsequent divergence of paralogous pairs play a central role in the evolution of novel gene functions. S. cerevisiae possesses two paralogous genes (ALT1/ALT2) which presumably encode alanine aminotransferases.

Lactate Dehydrogenase and Hepatic Transaminases as Prognostic Markers of Hypoxic Ischaemic Encephalopathy in Neonates with Perinatal Asphyxia [PDF]
Introduction: Hypoxic Ischaemic Encephalopathy (HIE) following perinatal asphyxia, due to cerebral hypoxia is an important cause of neonatal morbidly and mortality. Hypoxia causes cell death in various tissues like liver, kidney and muscles also.
