2. Elevated alkaline phosphatase - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elevated_alkaline_phosphatase

   H&E stain. Elevated alkaline phosphatase occurs when levels of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) exceed the reference range. This group of enzymes has a low substrate specificity and catalyzes the hydrolysis of phosphate esters in a basic environment. The major function of alkaline phosphatase is transporting chemicals across cell membranes. [1]

3. Hyperparathyroidism - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperparathyroidism

   Hyperparathyroidism is an increase in parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels in the blood. [1][4] This occurs from a disorder either within the parathyroid glands (primary hyperparathyroidism) or as response to external stimuli (secondary hyperparathyroidism). [1] Symptoms of hyperparathyroidism are caused by inappropriately normal or elevated blood ...

4. Alkaline phosphatase - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkaline_phosphatase

   The enzyme alkaline phosphatase (ALP, alkaline phenyl phosphatase) is a phosphatase with the physiological role of dephosphorylating compounds. The enzyme is found across a multitude of organisms, prokaryotes and eukaryotes alike, with the same general function, but in different structural forms suitable to the environment they function in. Alkaline phosphatase is found in the periplasmic ...

5. Liver function tests - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liver_function_tests

   003436. [edit on Wikidata] Liver function tests (LFTs or LFs), also referred to as a hepatic panel, are groups of blood tests that provide information about the state of a patient's liver. [1] These tests include prothrombin time (PT/INR), activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), albumin, bilirubin (direct and indirect), and others.

6. Biotinylation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biotinylation

   Biotinylation. In biochemistry, biotinylation is the process of covalently attaching biotin to a protein, nucleic acid or other molecule. Biotinylation is rapid, specific and is unlikely to disturb the natural function of the molecule due to the small size of biotin (MW = 244.31 g/mol). Biotin binds to streptavidin and avidin with an extremely ...

7. Hypophosphatasia - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypophosphatasia

   Hypophosphatasia (/ ˌhaɪpoʊˈfɒsfeɪtˌeɪʒə /; also called deficiency of alkaline phosphatase, phosphoethanolaminuria, [5] or Rathbun's syndrome; [1] sometimes abbreviated HPP[6]) is a rare, and sometimes fatal, inherited [7] metabolic bone disease. [8] Clinical symptoms are heterogeneous, ranging from the rapidly fatal, perinatal ...

9. Bodansky unit - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bodansky_unit

   The Bodansky unit is an obsolete measure of alkaline phosphatase concentration in blood. It is defined as the quantity of alkaline phosphatase that liberates 1 mg of phosphate ion during the first hour of incubation with a buffered substrate containing sodium β-glycerophosphate. [1] This technique was the first test to measure blood alkaline ...
