Enzymes

Transaminasas
Transaminases (GOT or GPT) are enzymes widely distributed
in the body, and its highest activity is located in heart,
liver, skeletal muscle, kidney and erythrocytes. Under normal
conditions, serum activity is low or null. Any alteration in these
tissues causes an increase in serum levels. After an Acute
Myocardial Infarction GOT shows a high increase (abundant
in cardiac muscle). Highest GPT levels (abundant in hepatic
tissue) are found in patients with viral hepatitis and liver disease
with tissular necrosis. High transaminase activity may
also be detected in accidental or surgical traumas and muscular
dystrophy or myositis.
