Transaminitis, or hypertransaminasemia, refers to unusually high levels of a family of enzymes called transaminases. Transaminitis is not a disease, but it can point to other issues that require treatment. High levels of fat or similar problems may be causing inflammation in the liver. Transaminases play key roles in the liver.

What is transaminitis? Your liver breaks down nutrients and filters toxins out of your body, which it does with the help of enzymes. Transaminitis, sometimes called hypertransaminasemia, refers to having high levels of certain liver enzymes called transaminases.
Serum aspartate transaminase (AST) is mainly found in the liver, cardiac muscle, and other tissues while serum alanine transaminase (ALT) is predominantly found in the liver. The ratio of AST to ALT is commonly used to assess liver cell injury [8].
The most common causes of elevated transaminase levels are nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and alcoholic liver disease. Uncommon causes include drug-induced liver injury, hepatitis B and C, and hereditary hemochromatosis. Rare causes include alpha1-antitrypsin deficiency, autoimmune hepatitis, and Wilson disease.
Hyperlactatemia is the way providers describe elevated lactate short of lactic acidosis. There is no indexing for hyperlactatemia. The ICD-10-CM indexing will take “excessive lacticemia” to E87. 2.
Elevated liver enzymes are a sign that a person has an inflamed or damaged liver. Many conditions may cause liver inflammation or damage. Doctors use a blood test to check for elevated liver enzymes.
The aspartate aminotransferase (AST) test is a blood test that checks for liver damage. Your doctor might order this test to find out if you have liver disease and to monitor your treatment. Your liver is an organ that has many important jobs. It makes a fluid called bile that helps your body digest food.
