Estimation of Serum Enzymes

Serum cardiac enzymes in stroke.

Serum cardiac enzyme levels (CK, LDH, SGOT) were estimated and the ECG recorded for 4 days following admission of 288 patients (Group I) to a stroke intensive care unit. Sixty-four of these patients, subsequently found not to have strokes, served as controls. Mean serum levels of all 3 cardiac enzymes were elevated in 8% of the 224 patients with stroke. The mean serum enzyme levels in patients ...

Serum enzymes in diabetes mellitus.

Serum enzymes that show changed activities in diabetes mellitus can be divided into four groups: Group I includes some lysosomal enzymes-f.3-glucuronidase N-acetyl-fl-glucosaminidase, acid phosphatase, and amylase-that show increased activity correlated with blood sugar concentration. Because lysosomal enzymes as well as liver amylase show latency and may be “activated” by several agents, their...

Serum enzymes in the diagnosis of disease.

The enzymes of the first sort may suitably be called the primary serum enzymes. They are usually present as precursors and require to be activated to exert their physiological effect. Examples are: (a) Lipoprotein lipase, which is activated by heparin and heparin-like substances, and which catalyzes the conversion of the triglycerides of plasma lipoproteins to free fatty acids and to diand mono...
