Abstract
24 h urinary alanine-amino-peptidase (AAP) and gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) activities were studied from the 3rd-7th month of life in male Wistar rats. A close relationship was found between AAP and GGT activity, except at the beginning and at the end of this period. At the end there appear 2 subgroups, the larger (70%) showing a strong correlation between AAP and GGT activity and the other (30%), demonstrating no correlation at all. A good correlation between AAP and GGT activities, creatinine, 24 h urine volume and 24 h creatinine output was found.
