DOI: 10.1002/jcla.70072
Abstract: Persistent elevation of aspartate aminotransferase (AST) is commonly indicative of liver injury or disease, but isolated AST elevation without concurrent alanine aminotransferase (ALT) increase is rare and difficult to diagnose. While AST is non‐specific and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pntd.0013443
Abstract: Background Talaromyces marneffei (T. marneffei), a life-threatening opportunistic fungal pathogen, is endemic to Southeast Asia. Although elevated aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels are commonly observed in infected individuals, the origin and mechanism of this phenomenon remain… read more here.
