Creatine kinase (CK), formerly known as creatine phosphokinase, is an intracellular enzyme present in greatest amounts in skeletal muscle, myocardium, and brain; smaller amounts occur in other visceral tissues. Disruption of cell membranes due to hypoxia or other injury releases CK from the ...

37.7.1Creatine kinase and creatine kinase isoenzymes CKcatalyzes the synthesis of ATP andPCrin a reverse Lohmann reaction. Normal distribution of CK and itsisoenzymesin the skeletal muscle of untreated control male Sprague-Dawley rats is shown inTable 37.7. The findings revealed that the fast-musc...
Creatine kinase activity was determined in 103 clinically healthy dogs. Normal values of total creatine kinase and its isoenzymes have been established, and our method of electrophoresis is described. The normal range of the total-CK activity in dog was higher than that in man (up to 84 U./...
This paper reports the isozyme types and normal levels of creatine kinase from human tissues obtained at autopsy. These values are of interest because of the widespread use of serum creatine kinase activity as an indicator FullText William H. Zinkham,Pediatrics,1966 ...

In murine skin, we found high amounts of brain-type cytosolic creatine kinase coexpressed with lower amounts of ubiquitous mitochondrial creatine kinase, both mainly localized in suprabasal layers of the epidermis, different cell types of hair follicles, sebaceous glands, and the subcutaneous ...

Second creatine kinase (CK2) determinations were recorded on 48 of 140 (34%) ALS patients later in the course of the disease. The mean CK1 and CK2 values (unit, times the upper limit of normal) were 1.22 (range, 0.1 to 3.0; median, 0.80) and 1.34 (range, 0.1–9.2; median, 0.80)...
