Fenvalerate is a synthetic pyrethroid , widely used due to its high effective and low mammalian toxicity. Fenvalerate, dose equivalent to LD25 was administered orally for acute exposure and dose equivalent to LD5 for subchronic & chronic exposure to Wistar rats. Toxic effect of Fenvalerate observed in serum Lypase, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), Cholinesterase...

AIMS To assess the place of AST/ALT ratio (the ratio of serum aspartate aminotransferase to serum alanine aminotransferase) as a diagnostic marker in medical populations. METHODS Laboratory tests were viewed retrospectively in three groups of patients: 313 patients with alcohol dependence, consecutively admitted to an alcohol and drug treatment unit for treatment of withdrawal (W) symptoms, 7...

Background: Arginase plays an essential role in type 2 diabetes. Aim of the study: The study aimed to determine level arginase activity individuals patients with diabetes mellitus (DMT2) and correlation between investigated variables. Patients material methods: included 201 adults divided into two groups: those II (136 people) healthy (65 people). Blood non-fasting persons had their activity, g...

In vitro supplementation with the active form of vitamin B6, pyridoxal-phosphate (PLP), increases measurements of both serum aminotransferase enzymes, L-aspartate: 2-oxoglutarate amino transferase, EC 2.6.1.1 (AST) and L-alanine: 2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase, EC 2.6.1.2 (ALT). The plasma PLP level in normal individuals clearly relates inversely to the degree of stimulation of serum AST and A...

Few studies demonstrate at a biochemical level the metabolic profile of both cumulus cells and the oocyte during maturation. The aim of the present study was to investigate the differential participation of enzymatic activity in cumulus cells and in the oocyte during in vitro maturation (IVM) by studying the activity of enzymes involved in the control of amino acid metabolism, alanine aminotran...

Activities of aspartate aminotransferase (AST) isoenzymes were determined in serial serum samples from 40 cases of acute myocardial infarction, and compared with activities of creatine kinase, CK-MB isoenzyme, lactate dehydrogenase, and alpha-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase for temporal changes. Cytosolic (soluble) AST (s-AST) and mitochondrial AST (m-AST) respectively increased 6.6 and 9.0 h aft...

Elevated enzyme activities in plasma may sometimes be due to the presence of macroenzymes.1,2 Macroenzymes are high molecular mass complexes of plasma enzymes with immunoglobulins (IgG, IgA or IgM) or other plasma components with reduced plasma clearance and prolonged half life, resulting in elevated serum activities due to the “trapping” of the enzymes in serum.3 These results may thus be erro...

Two hundred and sixteen day-old Ross-308 broiler chicks were allocated into 4 groups to study the impacts of different concentrations (0.0, 0.1, 0.15 and 0.2%) of β-hydroxy-methyl butyrate calcium (β-HMB-Ca), on values of tri-iodothyronin (T3) and tetra-iodothyronin (T4) hormones, liver enzymes [aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT)], uric acid, peroxide, malondial...
