Gamma-glutamyltransferase (GT) in serum originates primarily from the hepatobiliary system. Therefore GT is elevated in all forms of liver disease and has been shown to be more sensitive than alkaline phosphatase in detecting obstructive jaundice, cholangitis and cholecystitis. High levels of GT are ...
Purpose The aim of the study was to evaluate whether gamma-glutamyltransferase (γ-GT) is the marker of the cardiovascular (CV) risk assessed by the SCORE system and early arterial damage. Methods. Serum levels of γ-GT, lipid profile, inflammatory markers and plasma glucose of 209 subjects ...

The normal newborn may have very high levels of GGT, up to 10 times the upper limit of normal for adults. Values of GGT for premature babies may be higher than those for term infants during the first weeks after birth. In comparison with other standard serum assays, that of GGT may be...
Serum levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) were determined using an enzymatic colorimetric assay after dextran sulfate precipitation. Serum γ-GT levels were measured using a CX7 biochemistry analyzer (Beckman, Fullerton, CA)22,23,24. Definition of Metabolic Syndrome We used the ...
Compared with those subjects in the first quartile of γ-GT, the MS risks in the fourth quartile increased by 2.92-fold, central obesity by 2.31-fold, high triglycerides by 3.76-fold, hypertension by 1.84-fold, and hyperglycemia by 1.63 fold. The γ-GT levels increased significantly in ...
Double-strand breaks in the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) result in the formation of linear fragments that are rapidly degraded. However, the identity of the nuclease(s) performing this function is not known. We found that the exonuclease function of the mtD
