[ 1 ] - Unexplained High Activity of Aspartate Aminotransferase in an Asymptomatic Pediatric Patient

The macro-enzymes are often serum enzymes in complex with immunoglobulins, resulting in a greater molecular mass that cannot be filtered by renal glomeruli and are, hence, retained in the plasma. The aspartate aminotransferase (AST) can exist as a macro-enzyme, although it has been rarely reported....
