Hi,

The enzyme ALT (alanine aminotransferase)  or serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase (SGPT) is primarily found in the liver, making it a more specific test for detecting liver abnormalities.
This enzyme  is involved in the metabolism of the amino acid alanine. If there is injury to the liver,  there is a  release of the enzyme into the blood. Normal range can vary according to a number of factors, including age and gender. Normal range is 5-35 IU/L.  In your case, an increased SGPT levels may indicate: Celiac disease,  cirrhosis, Hepatitis (viral, autoimmune),  effects of certain medications or even liver ischemia .  Talk to your doctor about your result for proper management. Results may also vary from different laboratories.

Take care and keep us posted.
