Serum glutamate dehydrogenase activity enables early detection of liver injury in subjects with underlying muscle impairments.

Serum glutamate dehydrogenase activity enables early detection of liver injury in subjects with underlying muscle impairments.

Serum activities of alanine and aspartate aminotransferases (ALT and AST) are used as gold standard biomarkers for the diagnosis of hepatocellular injury. Since ALT and AST lack liver specificity, the diagnosis of the onset of hepatocellular injury in patients with underlying muscle impairments is s...
