serum aldolase isoenzyme

Aldolase (ALD or ALS) generally refers to the 1,6-diphosphate fructose aldolase in the glycolytic pathway. Increased serum ALD is mainly used to diagnose muscle and liver diseases, or it may be caused by lesions in certain tissues or organs in the body. The aldolase isoenzymes in each tissue have their own characteristics, so the determination of serum aldolase isoenzyme can improve the specificity of the tissue, and can accurately determine the location and extent of the lesion. Basic Information Specialist classification: Oncology examination classification: biochemical examination Applicable gender: whether men and women apply fasting: fasting Analysis results: Below normal: ALD-B reduction is seen in tumors. Normal value: ALD-A (muscle type): 171-±39ng/ml ALD-B (liver type): 28.5-±9.2 ng/ml ALD-C (brain type): 2.4-±0.7ng/ml Above normal: (1) A significant increase in ALD-A is seen in hepatocellular carcinoma. (2) Moderate elevation of ALD-A is found in gastric cancer, esophageal cancer, lung cancer, and thyroid cancer. (3) Mild elevation of ALD-A is seen in leukemia and Hodgkin's disease. (4) ALD-C elevation is seen in muscle malnutrition. negative: Positive: Tips: Before the examination, the diet is light and alcohol is prohibited. Check that the morning is on an empty stomach. Normal value Immunoprecipitation ALD-A (muscle type) 171 ± 39 ng / ml; ALD-B (liver type) 28.5 ± 9.2 ng / ml; ALD-C (brain type) 2.4 ± 0.7 ng / ml. Clinical significance 1, ALD-A significantly increased in hepatocellular carcinoma. 2. Moderate elevation of ALD-A is found in gastric cancer, esophageal cancer, lung cancer, and thyroid cancer. 3, ALD-A mildly elevated in leukemia, Hodgkin's disease. 4. ALD-B reduction is seen in tumors. 5, ALD-C rise is seen in muscle malnutrition. High results may be diseases: liver cancer, esophageal cancer, lung cancer, thyroid cancer, stomach cancer, leukemia, Hodgkin's disease precautions Before the blood test, you need a light diet, no alcohol, and fasting for eight hours before blood collection. Inspection process Immediately after venous blood collection, the test method was determined by immunoprecipitation and enzyme speed method. Not suitable for the crowd Inappropriate people: Generally there are no people who are not suitable. Adverse reactions and risks Discomfort: There may be pain, swelling, tenderness, and visible subcutaneous ecchymosis at the puncture site.
