background: margarine contain trans fatty acids as major sources of dietary free radicals, and oxidative stress. effect of oral administration of margarine on hepatic enzyme was investigated in wistar rats. methods: thirty six (36) adult wistar rats were uniformly divided into three groups of control , margarine 15% and 20%, twelve rats in each groups (6males & 6 females). margarine was added t...

previous studies indicated that endurance exercise decreases levels of liver enzymes. the aim of this study was to determine the effect of endurance exercise on liver enzymes in eight weeks in iranian women who are stopping the drug with methadone. sixty iranian women prisoners including 30 cases as experimental group and 30 volunteers served as control. the mean age, height, weight, percent of...

conclusions the lee is a common finding among kidney transplant recipients. serial monitoring of aminotransferases, particularly alt, should be performed in all patients after kidney transplantation. patients and methods liver enzymes and other biochemical parameters were measured in all recipients. patients were divided into three groups, according to laboratory test time since transplantation...

background: preterm premature rupture of membranes (pprom) occurs in 3% of pregnancies and 30-40% of preterm labors are related to this problem. early diagnosis of pprom is very important due to its impact on pregnancy outcomes. objective: to determine the diagnostic value of aspartate aminotransferase (ast) and alanine aminotransferase (alt) levels in vaginal fluid for the diagnosis of preterm...

backgrounds normal or elevated values of serum alanine aminotransferase level (alt) vary in different studies mostly related to characteristics of reference population including age, gender, body mass index, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (nafld), and metabolic syndrome prevalence. objectives to measure upper normal limit (unl) for serum alt in an apparently healthy iranian old population (wh...

normal 0 false false false en-us x-none ar-sa background: there have been few studies to examine the effect of magnesium (mg) supplementation on liver enzymes. the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of mg supplementation and weight loss on liver enzymes, lipid profile, and fasting blood sugar in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (nafld). materials and methods: this study ...

introduction: to determine an indicator for triclabendazole (tcbz) efficacy, alanine aminotransferase (alt) activity in fasciola hepatica (iranian isolate) parasite in presence and absence of tcbz was evaluated by an in vitro cultivation method. also, alt enzyme activity between none and parasitized-infected sheep liver tissues was assessed. method:  the sheep livers were collected and transfer...

aim: the healthy ranges for serum alanine aminotransferase (alt) levels are less well studied. the aim of this study was to define the upper limit of normal (uln) for serum alt levels, and to assess factors associated with serum alt activity in apparently healthy blood donors. methods: a total of 1939 blood donors were included. alt measurements were performed for all cases using the same labor...

An examination of the subcellular distribution of alanine aminotransferase activity in pig cardiac tissue showed that about 10% of the total activity was bound to particulate material, with the highest specific activity in the sarcosomal fraction. The soluble enzyme was obtained in a high state of purity, as indicated by sedimentation velocity, starch gel electrophoresis, and spectral analyses....
