Serum levels of aspartate transaminase, alanine transaminase and worm burden in mice infected with Ancylostoma caninum larvae.
Aspartate transaminase and alanine transaminase levels showed considerable increase during initial (1 to 9 days) period of infection in all the experimental groups of mice and their level reached higher values than in the controls. The increase of enzymes was influenced by the degree of retention of worm load and the immunological damage caused by Ancylostoma caninum larvae within the host system.
