ALP (Alkalisk fosfatase)

Alkalisk fosfatase (ALP) er et enzym som finnes i flere vev i kroppen, spesielt i leveren, skjelettet, nyrene og fordøyelsessystemet. ALP spiller en viktig rolle i nedbrytningen av proteiner og i defosforyleringsprosesser. I leveren er det knyttet til gallegangene og brukes ofte for å hjelpe til med å diagnostisere lever- og skjelettlidelser. Forhøyede ALP-nivåer kan indikere blokkering i gallegangene eller skjelettlidelser, mens lave nivåer kan være knyttet til visse genetiske tilstander og underernæring.
