UC Davis - Alanine transaminase v1 [PDF]
Summary: Alanine transaminase (ALT) also known as alanine aminotransferase or (sGPT) is a metabolic enzyme expressed primarily in the liver. Elevation of ALT levels is an indication of liver damage and has been associated with liver injury. ALT levels are monitored routinely in patients with liver diseases.

Probing alanine transaminase catalysis with hyperpolarized 13CD3-pyruvate [PDF]
Hyperpolarized metabolites offer a tremendous sensitivity advantage (>10(4) fold) when measuring flux and enzyme activity in living tissues by magnetic resonance methods. These sensitivity gains can also be applied to mechanistic studies that impose time and metabolite concentration limitations.

Alanine Transaminase Level in a Healthy Population in Morocco
A little is known about the prevalence of elevated alanine transaminase in a Moroccan healthy population. Our aim was to search for the upper limit of normal alanine transaminase in the blood donors and then to apply the upper limit of normal alanine found in the population so as to assess the prevalence of subjects with abnormal transaminase level. We

Serum Alanine Transaminase Total Bilirubin Concentrations Predict CYP3A Activity as Measured by Midazolam and 1’-Hydroxylation [PDF]
Background Microsomal enzyme P450 (CYP450) plays an important role in metabolism of most xenobiotics. The activity of CYP3A decreases in patients with liver dysfunction. However, whether serum concentrations of liver enzymes reflect the activity of CYP3A

Association of Alanine Transaminase and Aspartate Aminotransferase/Alanine Transaminase Ratio with Type 2 Diabetes and Metabolic Syndrome in the Elderly [PDF]
Background Serum alanine transaminase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) are common liver enzymes, but there are few studies on the correlation of these enzymes with the prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and metabolic syndrome (MS ...
