Berkala Ilmu Kesehatan Kulit dan Kelamin (Periodical of Dermatology and Venerology), 2021 Background: The occurrence of Cutaneous Adverse Drug Reactions (CADRs) is relatively rare but can be fatal when causing organ failure, especially in the liver. The supporting examinations to determine liver injury are aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and

Empagliflozin is associated with improvements in liver enzymes potentially consistent with reductions in liver fat: results from randomised trials including the EMPA-REG OUTCOME® trial [PDF]
, 2018 Aims/hypothesis: In addition to beneficial effects on glycaemia and cardiovascular death, empagliflozin improves adiposity indices. We investigated the effect of empagliflozin on aminotransferases (correlates of liver fat) in individuals with type 2 ...

Photoinactivation of Aspartate Aminotransferase
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1970 Abstract The cofactor pyridoxal 5'-phosphate bound through an aldimine linkage to lysine residues of the enzyme aspartate aminotransferase is very stable to irradiation with light of 420 nm. The catalytic function of the enzyme exposed to light absorbed by the cofactor remains unaffected, indicating that pyridoxal 5'-phosphate is not an efficient ...

Protocol TOP-Study (tacrolimus organ perfusion): a prospective randomized multicenter trial to reduce ischemia reperfusion injury in transplantation of marginal liver grafts with an "ex vivo" tacrolimus perfusion [PDF]
, 2013 Background: Critical organ shortage results in the utilization of extended donor criteria (EDC) liver grafts. These marginal liver grafts are prone to increased ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) which may contribute to deteriorated graft function and ...

MACRO-ASPARTATE AMINOTRANSFERASE
Hepatology and Gastroenterology, 2021 Measurement of serum enzyme activity is one of the most common laboratory tests. Increased activity may be caused by abnormal enzymes with a high molecular mass, the so-called macroenzymes. Macroenzymes may be seen in healthy subjects, but can also be related to disease. Macro-aspartate aminotransferase (macro-AST) is a macroenzyme that results from an
