Urine leucine aminotransferase (ULAP)

Serum leucine aminotranspeptidase is widely present in various tissues of the human body and is also distributed in the urine. When the kidney is severely damaged, causing pathological lesions in the renal parenchyma, the urinary leucine aminotranspeptidase is significantly elevated. Urine leucine aminotranspeptidase assays are useful for clinical diagnosis of kidney or extrarenal disease. Basic Information Specialist classification: urinary examination classification: urine / kidney function test Applicable gender: whether men and women apply fasting: not fasting Analysis results: Below normal: No clinical significance. Normal value: Urine leucine aminotranspeptidase: 3.93-9.11u/(g.cr) Above normal: 1, acute nephritis, renal vascular injury. Extrarenal tumors such as kidney tumors, acute renal failure, leukemia, lymphoma, and renal ischemia, such as renal transplant rejection, drug-induced renal damage. 2. Female genital tumors. negative: Positive: Tips: Fresh morning urine should be used as much as possible. The urine that is randomly selected is preferably mid-stage urine. Women should avoid menstruation when taking urine specimens and should prevent vaginal secretions from mixing into the urine. Normal value Reference value (6.54 ± 2.57) u / (g. cr). Clinical significance When raised, it can be seen in: 1, acute nephritis, renal vascular injury. Extrarenal tumors such as kidney tumors, acute renal failure, leukemia, lymphoma, and renal ischemia, such as renal transplant rejection, drug-induced renal damage. 2. Female genital tumors. High results may be diseases: kidney tumor, acute nephritis, acute renal failure precautions Note when checking: 1. Try to use fresh morning urine when doing this test. The urine that is randomly selected is preferably mid-stage urine. 2, women should avoid the menstrual period when taking urine specimens, should prevent vaginal secretions mixed into the urine, middle-stage urine is appropriate. 3.
