Fact checked by Nick Blackmer For years, I trusted the words, “You’re healthy,” at my annual physicals. As someone diagnosed with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) at 16, I had battled my metabolism ...

A glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) test measures the levels of the enzyme AST in the blood to assess liver health. Numbers over 50 for cisgender males ...

Faecalibacterium and Ruminococcus 2, combined with glutamate pyruvic transaminase, aspartate aminotransferase, and white blood cell count distinguished NAFLD. We speculate that regulating the ...

This observation prompted further study, in the course of which it was discovered that these bacteria possessed an active aspartate–glutamate transaminase system.

A new wave of scientific interest is spotlighting GOT2—glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase 2—as a compelling therapeutic target in the fight against pancreatic cancer, one of the most lethal and ...

Aspartate is an amino acid (a protein building block) that has very low concentrations in blood plasma but, surprisingly, very high concentrations in the lungs of mice with metastatic breast cancer.

Background: We aimed to assess the prognostic effect of preoperative De Ritis (aspartate aminotransaminase/Alanine aminotransaminase) ratio and pathological variables to find out whether it is an ...
