Liver failure was defined as present if total bilirubin was 2.0 mg/dl or greater, and either the alkaline phosphatase or a transaminase level was greater than twice normal, in the absence of confounding disease.
However, transient subclinical disturbances of liver function are a common feature of many drugs metabolised in the liver, and this may explain the frequent finding of transaminase changes in safety studies of new drugs; these biochemical findings are usually dismissed as meaningless noise, but they may in fact be sensitive or oversensitive markers of vulnerability, of low specificity.
ALT = alanine transaminase; AST = aspartate transaminase; MDA = malondialdehyde; ROIs = reactive oxygen intermediates; TBA = thiobarbituric acid; TBARS = thiobarbituric-acid-reacting substances; TPN = total parenteral nutrition.
• Urinary levels of thiobarbituric-acid-reacting substances (TBARS), which are proportional to lipid peroxidation and oxidant stress, are correlated with serum transaminase levels.
Amino acids can be used as nitrogen sources since in many cases they only need a single enzyme such as a transaminase or deaminase to liberate the ammonia.
