Understanding Aldolase

Aldolase is a protein enzyme found throughout the body, with the highest concentrations in skeletal muscles, liver, and brain. It plays a vital role in glycolysis, the process of converting glucose and fructose into energy. When muscle or liver cells are damaged, aldolase leaks into the bloodstream, leading to higher-than-normal blood levels, which may indicate muscle injury, secondary involvement in liver disease, or other underlying health conditions. The Aldolase test helps measure these levels in the blood to d...
