6-8hrs 95% nedgative predicative vaule indicates no MI
Term
Main location of AST-Aspartate aminotransferase
Definition
Liver
Term
What are the clinical signifiance of AST?
Definition

Increases:

Liver

Heart

Muscles diseases

 

 

Term
Main location of ALT-Alanine aminotransferase
Definition
Liver
Term

Highest elevation in ALT

more specific than AST

Definition

1. Acute viral hepatitis

2. Toxic hepatitis

 

Term
ALT decreases with patients with
Definition
cirrohsis
Term
Location of ALP- Alkaline Phosphastase
Definition
Liver
Term
Clinical Signifance of ALP
Definition

Help Diagnoise Liver and Bone disorders

Increased ALP in hepatobillary disease/ obstructions and bone diseases

Term
Location of GGT-Gamma Glutamyl Tranferase
Definition

Serum

present in all cells except muscle, biliray and liver

Term
Clinical signifance of GGT
Definition

Increases in hepatobiliary disease

Helps differeniate between liver and bone diseases

 

Term

Location of 5'-NT, 5'-nucleotidase?

 

Definition
VAriety fo tissues, specifically liver
Term
Clinical Signifance of 5'-NT
Definition

Elevated in biliary tract diseases

5'-NT with GGT and ALP determinei if ALP elvation is from bone of liver disease

ALP, GGT elevated = bone source of ALP

Definition
 Screening for prosate cancer --> PSA
Term
Clinical SIgnifance of ALD-Aldolase
Definition

Helpful in diagnosing/montoring sketelal muscle diseases

Increases in ALD with CK:AST ratio help to differentaite neuro musclaular disease
