ALT (Alanine Aminotransferase): ALT is an enzyme mainly present in the liver. Elevated levels in the blood typically indicate liver damage or inflammation, such as from hepatitis or fatty liver disease. It’s considered a more specific marker for liver injury compared to AST.
AST (Aspartate Aminotransferase): AST is found in various tissues, including the liver, heart, muscle, and kidneys. While elevated AST levels can also suggest liver damage, they are less specific than ALT because AST can be elevated due to other conditions, such as heart disease or muscle injury. These two liver enzymes measured in a blood test to check the health of your liver. High AST and ALT levels are a general sign of a liver problem.
TBILI stands for total bilirubin. It measures the overall level of bilirubin in the blood. Bilirubin is a substance produced from the breakdown of red blood cells. The liver processes bilirubin, and elevated levels can indicate problems with liver function or bile flow, such as liver disease, bile duct obstruction, or hemolytic anemia. TBILI is a useful marker in evaluating and monitoring these conditions.
ALB stands for albumin, which is a protein made by the liver. It plays several important roles in the body, including: Maintaining Osmotic Pressure: Albumin helps keep fluid from leaking out of blood vessels and into surrounding tissues. Transporting Substances: It carries hormones, vitamins, and drugs through the bloodstream. Binding and Transporting: It binds to and transports various substances like fatty acids and certain drugs. Measuring ALB levels in the blood can help assess liver function, kidney function, and overall nutritional status. Low levels of albumin might indicate liver disease, kidney problems, or malnutrition.
