Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) is an enzyme found in most living organisms. It is the enzyme responsible for the conversion of pyruvate. if your levels are high then you may be suffering from a number of conditions which can be kidney, lung, or heart diseases. Consult with a doctor if you have more than normal levels of LDH.
