What's a GeneRIF?

Results indicate that AZD4619 increased alanine aminotransferase (ALT1) protein expression in a dose-dependent manner in human, but not in rat hepatocytes.
Title: The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α agonist, AZD4619, induces alanine aminotransferase-1 gene and protein expression in human, but not in rat hepatocytes: Correlation with serum ALT levels.
Data suggest that both Alt1 and Alt2 are induced in liver during gluconeogenesis and in diabetes (Goto-Kakizaki rats); in hepatocytes, both Alt1 and Alt2 are induced by glucocorticoid dexamethasone and are suppressed by insulin.
Title: Hepatic ALT isoenzymes are elevated in gluconeogenic conditions including diabetes and suppressed by insulin at the protein level.
Although ALT and GMT activities and TNF-alpha and IL-6 concentrations were higher in male rats histopathological findings have shown slightly more advanced fibrotic and inflammatory changes in female rats.
Title: The differences in selected biochemical markers and histological findings after bile duct ligation in male and female rats.
Protein levels are significantly elevated and correlate with activity, providing the molecular basis for the elevated total serum enzyme activity in liver toxicity.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
