Liver injury is an important complication that may arise in patients suffering from coronavirus disease 2019(COV-ID-19)and is accompanied by a transient increase of transaminases and/or other liver enzymes.Liver funct...
In addition to liver injury, elevation of aminotransferases can be caused by strenuous exercise and use of muscle-building and weight-loss supplements. The purpose of this review is to discuss the various mechanisms o...
Rhabdomyolysis is a syndrome of skeletal muscle injury with release of cellular constituents such as potassium,phosphate,urate and intracellular proteins such as myoglobin into the circulation,which may cause complica...

Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH)—the severe histological form of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)—is regarded as a major health problem worldwide (1,2). The disease can progress to liver cirrhosis and eve...
ABSTRACT: Serum aminotransferases have been used as surrogate markers for liver ischemia-reperfusion injury that follows liver surgery. Some studies have suggested that rises in serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT)...
Objective This study explored the correlation of longitudinal changes in serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels with the incidence of metabolic syndrome (Mets) based on ...

For several decades,serum levels of alanine(ALT) and aspartate(AST) aminotransferases have been regarded as markers of liver injury,including a wide range of etiologies from viral hepatitis to fatty liver.The increasi...
AIM:To evaluate the association of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD)with acute ischemic stroke severity and in-hospital outcome.METHODS:We prospectively studied all patients who were admitted in our Department ...

Kynurenine aminotransferases (KATs) catalyze the transamination of kynurenine (KYN) pathway and endogenous KYNs have been suggested to highly correlate to abnormal brain diseases. HKAT3 is a key member of KAT fami...
Wilson disease (WD) is an autosomal recessive disorder of copper transport caused by alteration of the adenosine triphosphatase 7B gene. It is rare to diagnose WD below the age of three years. Molecular genetic testin...
