  • Title: Value of so called cholestasis markers in the dog: an experimental study.
    Author: Guelfi JF, Braun JP, Benard P, Rico AG, Thouvenot JP.
    Journal: Res Vet Sci; 1982 Nov; 33(3):309-12. PubMed ID: 6130588.
    Abstract:
    In experimental bile obstruction in dogs, the most sensitive change in blood plasma composition is the increase in alkaline phosphatase activity which occurs after eight hours. Maximum alkaline phosphatase activities (approximately 100 times normal values) occur between the fifth and the 14th day. The increase in activity is accompanied by smaller increases in gamma-glutamyl transferase activity, and total bilirubin concentration also increases to a smaller extent and less regularly. Cholestasis also induces an intense cytolysis which is demonstrated mainly by increases in glutamate dehydrogenase and alanine amino transferase activities which are more intense and lasting than those induced by 0.5 ml/kg carbon tetrachloride.
