Serum glytamyl oxalacetic acid transferase, serum glutamyl pyruvate transferase, alkaline phosphatase and total bilirubin in plasma have been reported to be sensitive indicator of liver injury (Molander et al., 1955).
A colorimetric method for the determination of serum glutamyl oxalacetic acid glutamyl pyruvate transaminase.
As shown in Figure 2, when ketosis had occurred, a main cause of decreased protein synthesis appears to be because amino acids may be utilized by gluconeogenesis and the Krebs cycle (including via pyruvate or via oxalacetic acid or via fumarate or viaa-ketoglutarate or via succinyl-CoA) (Ingvartsen, 2006).
As shown in Figure 2, the substrate for gluconeogenesis was mostly supplied by glucogenic amino acids through the Krebs cycle (including via oxalacetic acid or via fumarate or viaa-ketoglutarate or via succinyl-CoA) or pyruvate (Danfaer et al., 1995), because of an insufficient supply of the glucogenic precursor propionate, owing to decreased appetite.
