  • Title: Cerebral metabolism following brain injury, III. Transaminase changes.
    Author: Sood SC, Gulati SC, Kumar M, Kak VK.
    Journal: Neurochirurgia (Stuttg); 1980 Sep; 23(5):182-6. PubMed ID: 7432590.
    Abstract:
    Glutamic oxalacetic and glutamic pyruvic transaminase levels in CSF and blood were estimated in 25 normal individuals and 50 patients with varying grades of head injury. CSF GOT, and to a lesser extent GPT, showed significant elevation proportionate to the degree of brain injury. Serum GOT was raised in more severe injuries. CSF GOT and GPT levels showed a significant correlation with the prognosis of the case.
