Fatty liver has pathological changes of hepatocellular steatosis, which leads to abnormal metabolic function of the liver, resulting in the elevation of glutamyl transpeptidase to 132 U/L. 1.
1. Normal values of glutamyl transpeptidase are 11-50 U/L for men and 7-32 U/L for women. serum glutamyl transpeptidase increases when liver metabolism is affected by hepatic impairment.
2. Fatty liver disease can also be categorized into simple non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and alcoholic fatty liver disease according to the etiology of whether or not there is prolonged and heavy alcohol consumption.
(1) Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease causes hepatocellular steatosis and increased lipid peroxidation, resulting in liver injury and mild elevation of glutamyl transpeptidase.
(2) Alcoholic fatty liver disease is due to the direct damaging effect of alcohol on the liver, which affects lipoprotein synthesis and secretion, as a result of which hepatocellular steatosis occurs and glutamyl transpeptidase is elevated.
If abnormal results are found, it is recommended to consult a doctor for diagnosis and treatment in order to avoid delay.
