    ABSTRACT: Serum concentration of hepatic enzymes are linked to liver dysfunction, metabolic and cardiovascular diseases. We perform genetic analysis on serum levels of alanine transaminase (ALT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) using data on 437,438 UK Biobank participants. Replication in 315,572 individuals from European descent from the Million Veteran Program, Rotterdam Study and Lifeline study confirms 517 liver enzyme SNPs. Genetic risk score analysis using the identified SNPs is strongly associated with serum activity of liver enzymes in two independent European descent studies (The Airwave Health Monitoring study and the Northern Finland Birth Cohort 1966). Gene-set enrichment analysis using the identified SNPs highlights involvement in liver developm

Concrete actions anchored to the cited research. We do not prescribe, we describe.

Bloodwork

  • alkaline phosphatase level Moderate

    rs11210918 T allele is associated with increased alkaline phosphatase levels in large GWAS (n=437,438), warranting baseline and periodic monitoring

    Include alkaline phosphatase in routine liver function panel every 1-2 years

  • ST3GAL3 rs11210918 variant and liver enzyme implications Moderate

    Elevated alkaline phosphatase can indicate liver, bone, or biliary disorders; association warrants clinical evaluation and determination of monitoring intensity
