2. Pancreatic Lipase is an enzyme produced by
the pancreas.
It plays a crucial role in the Digestion and
Absorption of Dietary fats.
It is secreted into the small intestine where it
acts on TGs, Breaking them into free fatty acids
and MGs, which can be easily absorbed by the
body.
3. Acute Pancreatitis: Lead to reduce pancreatic
lipase production and subsequent fat malabsorption.
Pancreatic Exocrine Insufficiency(PEI): Occurs
when the pancreas fails to produce an adequate
amount of pancreatic enzymes.
Cystic Fibrosis(CF): Thickened mucus blocks the
pancreatic ducts, impairing the release of pancreatic
enzymes.
4. Pancreatic Amylase is an enzyme produced by
the pancreas.
It plays a crucial role in the digestion of
carbohydrates.
It breaks down the complex carbohydrates into
smaller sugar molecules such as Glucose
5. Chronic Pancreatitis: Increases pancreatic amylase
levels and lead to progressive damage of organ.
Pancreatic Duct Obstruction: Lead to impaired
secretion of pancreatic enzymes due to blockage or
narrowing of duct.
Pseudocysts: Can lead to elevated pancreatic
amylase levels.
6. Refers to a group of enzymes.
Responsible for the breakdown of the
neurotransmitter acetylcholine in the body.
Two types ; Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) ,
Butyrylcholinesterase (BChE).
AChE is found in the nervous system.
BChE is found in the plasma and other tisses
throughout the body.
7. Alzheimer’s Disease: Characterized by the
progressive loss of memory and cognitive functions.
Myasthenia Gravis: Caused by antibodies
attacking the acetylcholine receptors at the
neuromuscular junction. Leading to muscle weakness
and fatigue.
Organophosphate and Carbamate poisoning:
Inhibit the cholinesterase activity.
8. GGT stands for Gamma-Glutamyl Tranferase.
An enzyme found in various tissues
throughout the body.
Has highest concentration in Liver.
Plays a role in metabolism of Glutathione.
9. GGT is commonly measured as a part of LFT.
Access the overall health and functions of Liver.
An elevated level of GGT in blood can indicate liver
disease or damage.
GGT elevation can cause by excessive alcohol
consumption, obesity, certain medications, and other
liver diseases.
10. G6PD stands for Glucose-6-phosphate
Dehydrogenase.
It is an enzyme found in red blood cells.
Plays a crucial role in protecting red blood cells
from oxidative damage.
Help them by producing a substance called
reduced Glutathione.
11. G6DP lies in its association with a genetic
condition called glucose-6-phosphate
dehydrogenase deficiency.
It is an inherited disorder that effects red blood
cells.
G6DP deficiency can lead to a condition known
as Hemolytic Anemia, where red blood cells
breakdown easily than normal
