    Abstract

    Biochemical studies were performed on 22 adult patients with idiopathic recurrent calcium oxalate renal stone disease and 23 healthy controls. It was found that urinary glutamic-oxaloacetic acid transaminase (UGOT) and urinary glutamic-pyruvic acid transaminase (UGPT) activity was low and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and gamma-glutamyl transferase (gamma-GT) activity was high in the urine of calcium oxalate stone formers. No significant changes were observed in the activity of glutamic-oxaloacetic acid transaminase, glutamic-pyruvic acid transaminase and gamma-GT in their blood but a significant reduction was found in both LDH and alkaline phosphatase activity. It was concluded that the activity of UGOT and UGPT is reduced in patients with kidney stones.
