Summary

Increase of aminotransferase activities is one of the modes of biochemical adaptation in hepatocytes at Fasciola infection. Additionally liver arginase activity has a positive correlation with blood urea level and excretion of nitrogen with urine. The intensive synthesis of glutamic acid at transamination of aspartate and α-ketoglutarate, urea level in cows infected by Fasciola evidence about morphological and functional change of hepatocytes with increasing of detoxication as a response to infection.
