Description

Alanine Transaminase (ALT), also known as Serum Glutamic Pyruvic Transaminase (SGPT), is an enzyme primarily found in the liver. It plays a key role in converting proteins into energy for liver cells. ALT is commonly measured in blood tests to assess liver health. Elevated ALT levels often indicate liver damage or inflammation, which can occur in conditions like hepatitis, fatty liver disease, alcohol-related liver disease, or medication toxicity. Since ALT is more specific to the liver than other enzymes, it is a valuable marker in diagnosing and monitoring liver disorders.
