Activities of alkaline phosphatase (ALP), alanine transaminase (ALT) aspartate transaminase (AST), creatine kinase (CK), glutamyl transpeptidase (GGP), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and the concentrations of cholesterol (CHL) and triglycerides (TG) were measured in the blood vessels of one-humped camel as follows: aorta abdominalis, vena cava caudalis, arteria carotis communis, arteria coronaria dextra, vena jugularis dextra, arteria pulmonalis dextra, vena pulmonalis dextra, arteria renalis, arteria plantaris medialis dextra, vena plantaris medialis dextra. The results indicated extremely elevated activities of the enzymes ALP, ALT, AST, CK, GGP, LDH (8.47, 300.93, 17.12, 1.71, 10.94 and 411.11 nKat/g, respectively) and lipids CHO and TG (12.03 and 6.9 mmol/g, respectively) in the a. coronaria dextra. At the same time there was no evidence for any difference between the arteries and veins. Thus, our results provides the first preliminary reference values of some diagnostic enzymes in the blood vessel wall that may be used when evaluating damage to the vasculature resulting in the leakage of the enzymes and lipids.
