  2. Lactate dehydrogenase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lactate_dehydrogenase

    Reaction catalyzed by lactate dehydrogenase. Lactate dehydrogenase catalyzes the interconversion of pyruvate and lactate with concomitant interconversion of NADH and NAD +.It converts pyruvate, the final product of glycolysis, to lactate when oxygen is absent or in short supply, and it performs the reverse reaction during the Cori cycle in the liver.

  3. Liver function tests - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liver_function_tests

    Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) is found in many body tissues, including the liver. Elevated levels of LDH may indicate liver damage. [17] LDH isotype-1 (or cardiac) is used for estimating damage to cardiac tissue, although troponin and creatine kinase tests are preferred. [18]

  4. Lactate dehydrogenase A - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lactate_dehydrogenase_A

    Lactate dehydrogenase A catalyzes the inter-conversion of pyruvate and L-lactate with concomitant inter-conversion of NADH and NAD +. LDHA is found in most somatic tissues, though predominantly in muscle tissue and tumors, and belongs to the lactate dehydrogenase family. It has long been known that many human cancers have higher LDHA levels ...

  5. Cardiac marker - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_marker

    Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) LDH is not as specific as troponin. 72 hours Lactate dehydrogenase catalyses the conversion of pyruvate to lactate. LDH-1 isozyme is normally found in the heart muscle and LDH-2 is found predominantly in blood serum. A high LDH-1 level to LDH-2 suggest MI. LDH levels are also high in tissue breakdown or hemolysis.

  6. Elevated transaminases - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elevated_transaminases

    Ischemic hepatopathy (shock liver): AST and ALT > 50 times the URL (in addition the lactate dehydrogenase is often markedly elevated) [15] Chronic hepatitis C virus infection: Wide variability, typically normal to less than twice the URL, rarely more than 10 times the URL

  7. Anaerobic glycolysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anaerobic_glycolysis

    When sufficient oxygen is not present in the muscle cells for further oxidation of pyruvate and NADH produced in glycolysis, NAD+ is regenerated from NADH by reduction of pyruvate to lactate. [4] Lactate is converted to pyruvate by the enzyme lactate dehydrogenase. [3] The standard free energy change of the reaction is -25.1 kJ/mol. [6]

  9. Cori cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cori_cycle

    Cori cycle. The Cori cycle (also known as the lactic acid cycle), named after its discoverers, Carl Ferdinand Cori and Gerty Cori, [1] is a metabolic pathway in which lactate, produced by anaerobic glycolysis in muscles, is transported to the liver and converted to glucose, which then returns to the muscles and is cyclically metabolized back to lactate.
