Aldolase near me in Kolkata









The Aldolase test is a blood test that measures the level of aldolase, an enzyme involved in breaking down glucose for energy. This test helps evaluate and monitor muscle diseases, such as muscular dystrophy, polymyositis, and dermatomyositis. It is widely available at an affordable price with Tata 1mg labs in Kolkata. The Aldolase is recommended if there are symptoms such as muscle weakness, cramps, stiffness, spasms, or unexplained muscle pain (myalgia). It is especially useful for detecting muscle-related disorders, including muscular dystrophy, polymyositis, dermatomyositis, and rhabdomyolysis (muscle tissue breakdown). Although aldolase may be elevated in certain liver disorders, its primary clinical utility today is in the evaluation of muscle diseases. In addition, doctors often use this test to monitor the progression of muscle diseases and to assess how well a patient is responding to treatment.








What does Aldolase measure?
The Aldolase test measures the concentration of aldolase, an enzyme involved in glucose metabolism and energy production. Aldolase is found predominantly in skeletal muscle and liver tissue. Damage to these tissues can result in the release of aldolase into the bloodstream, leading to elevated serum levels. Increased aldolase concentrations may be seen in inflammatory myopathies (such as polymyositis and dermatomyositis), muscular dystrophies, rhabdomyolysis, muscle trauma, strenuous exercise, and certain liver disorders. In some inflammatory muscle diseases, aldolase may be elevated even when creatine kinase (CK) levels are normal, making it a useful complementary marker in selected clinical situations. Results should always be interpreted in conjunction with clinical findings and other laboratory investigations.
