Yes, it does.
Liver enzymes are found in normal plasma and serum and can be divided into different groups:
1. Aspartate aminotransferase (AST or SGOT) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT or SGPT).
2. Alkaline phosphatase (AP) and gammaglutamyl transferase (GGT) are known as cholestatic liver enzymes.
Use of AST, SGOT, ALT, SGPT, AP and GGT are used by many people as a short hand for the enzymes.
There are more enzymes that are involved in blood clotting.
Yes, the liver is an accessory digestive organ, as no food goes into it.
liver
The mouth, salivary glands, esophagus, stomach, pancreas, liver, gallbladder, kidneys, small intestine, and large intestine are involved in digestion.
All simple reflexes. The chemistry of your gut and liver. (digestion)
The liver helps eliminate toxics from entering your digestive system and the pancreas sends enzymes to the small ingestive.
Basically that's just the liver. All other chemical changes are local.
small intestine
Certain abdominal organs are not involved in the digestive process. In fetal pigs, these organs include the liver and the kidneys.
Basically that's just the liver. All other chemical changes are local.
none, it only stores extra bile from the liver until needed.
The two organs that produce substances involved in the digestion of lipids are the pancreas and the liver. The pancreas secretes pancreatic lipase, an enzyme that breaks down fats into fatty acids and glycerol. The liver produces bile, which is stored in the gallbladder and released into the small intestine to emulsify fats, aiding in their digestion and absorption. Together, these substances facilitate the efficient breakdown and utilization of dietary lipids.
Yes, it metabolizes lipids.
