In which condition would amylase but not lipase be elevated?
Pancreatic cancer
Peptic ulcer
Macroamylasemia
Renal failure
ANSWER IS OPTION C - MACROAMYLASEMIA
Macroamylasemia is the presence of an abnormal substance called macroamylase in the blood.
Causes
Macroamylase is a substance that consists of an enzyme, called amylase, attached to a protein. Because it is large, macroamylase is filtered very slowly from the blood by the kidneys.
the condition has been associated with:
in pacreatic cancer both the srum amylase and serum lipase level is elevated, because these enzymes are produced by the pancreas,malignancy causes increased proliferation and high level of enzymes.
In peptic ulcer both the amylase and lipase are elevated ,mainly in perforated peptic ulcer.
In renal failure both the amylase and lipase are elevated because the renal insufficiency causes decreased clearance of the enzyme.

Match each enzyme function with the corresponding pancreatic enzyme. Pancreatic amylase Pancreatic lipase Ribonuclease Answer Bank breaks down RNA into nucleotides breaks down starch into oligosaccharides and disaccharides breaks down triglycerides into fatty acids and monoglycerides
The Lipase and amylase are extremely high; in addition, the LFTs and total bili are elevated , which also point to pancreatitis along with liver disease. The low albumin level might be decreased with inflammation, stress, or liver disease (the elevated WBCs also reflect inflammation). You want to monitor the amylase and lipase, why? Her BUN and creatinine reflect what?
