| (or ALT) -Used to be called serum glutamic-pyruvic transaminase (SGPT) Most common in the liver. An enzyme your body needs to break down proteins into energy. It plays a crucial role in amino acid metabolism and is often measured in blood tests to assess liver function. The catabolism of alanine by alanine aminotransferase 2 (ALT2) to pyruvate, was critical for the survival of non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) cells during glucose starvation. After knockdown of ALT2, cells were significantly more sensitive to glucose withdrawal compared to wildtype cells, which were rescued when supplemented with pyruvate. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) expression is highly elevated in the serum of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. A common example of dietary cancer therapy is the ketogenic diet, providing a fat-rich, low carbohydrate diet. The rationale is to reduce circulating glucose levels and induce ketosis. Used as a clinical biomarker for Liver function. |
