A standard small animal database yielded unremarkable haematology results, mildly to moderately increased alanine transaminase (ALT) activity (152 U/L; RI: 18–77 U/L), mildly increased activity of creatinine kinase (CK) (568 U/L; RI: 0–360 U/L), mild hyperglycaemia (9.8 mmol/L; RI: 3.8–7.6 mmol/L) and borderline hypotriglyceridaemia (0.19 mmol/L; RI: 0.20–1.30 mmol/L). The gene discussed is GPT; the disease is Hyperglycemia.
