At 24 hrs post-IRI, concomitant with hepatocellular degeneration (Figure 4(a)), FTY720-treated rats had significantly lower mean ALT (p < 0.01), AST (p < 0.01), and total bilirubin values (p < 0.01) and a significantly greater degree of hypoalbuminemia (Figure 5(d); p < 0.01) when compared with the vehicle control group at 24 hrs. Here, GPT is linked to Hypoalbuminemia.
