This study was performed to investigate the serum creative kinase(CK) activity and CK isoenzyme in Jindo dog. Serum CK activity and CK-isoenzyme were analyzed in 53 Jindo dogs of both sexes. The mean value and normal range of serum CK activity were 24.1 lu/$\ell$ and 7-91 lu/$\ell$, respectively, in 29 female dogs, 24.8 lu/$\ell$ and 8-89 lu/$\ell$ in 24 male dogs. The CK activity of the Puppy showed a tendency to be higher than that of the adult. There was no significance between Puppy and adult. Three isoenzymes (CK-MM, CK- BB, and CK-MB) were recognized in serum. The mean percentages of female and male were as follows: 48.31fp and 48.1% for CK-MM, 35.49) and 33.61fp for CK-BB, and 8.2% and 10.1% for CK-MB in the puppy and 46.21% and 46.1 % for CK-MM, 36.3% and 37.6% for CK-BB and 10.5% and 9.5% for CK-MB in the adult.

Background: For the determination of creatine kinase (CK)-MB, the immunoinhibition method is utilized most commonly. However, the estimated CK-MB activity may be influenced by the presence of CK isoenzymes in some conditions like cancer. Thus, a CK-MB-to-total-CK ratio more than 1.0 could be found in such a situation. The study aimed to explore the relationship of cancer to high CK-MB-to-total-CK ratio. Materials and Methods: From January 2011 to December 2014, laboratory data on all CK-MB and total CK test requests were extracted at Far Eastern Memorial Hospital (88,415 requests). Patients with a CK-MB-to-total-CK ratio more than 1.0 were registered in this study. Clinical data including tumor location, tumor TNM stage and metastatic status were also collected. Results: A total of 846 patients were identified with a CK-MB-to-total-CK ratio more than 1.0. Of these, 339 (40.1%) were diagnosed with malignancies. The mean CK-MB-to-total-CK ratio was significantly higher in malignancy than in non-malignancy ($1.35{\pm}0.28$ vs $1.25{\pm}0.23$, p<0.001) groups. The most frequent malignancy with a CK-MB-to-total-CK ratio more than 1.0 was colorectal cancer ($1.42{\pm}0.28$, 16.5%, n=56), followed by lung cancer ($1.38{\pm}0.24$, 15.9%, n=54) and hepatocellular carcinoma (14.5%, n=49). Higher CK-MB-to-total-CK ratios in hematological malignancies ($1.44{\pm}0.41$)were also noted. Additionally, the CK-MB-to-total-CK ratio was markedly higher in advanced stage malignancy than in early stage ($1.37{\pm}0.26$ vs. $1.29{\pm}0.31$, p=0.014) and significantly higher in liver metastasis than in non-liver metastasis ($1.48{\pm}0.30$ vs. $1.30{\pm}0.21$, p<0.001). Conclusions: The CK-MB-to-total-CK ratio is an easily available indicator and could be clinically utilized as a primary screening tool for cancer. Higher ratio of CK-MB-to-total-CK was specifically associated with certain malignancies, like colorectal cancer, lung cancer and hepatocellular carcinoma, as well as some cancer-associated status factors such as advanced stage and liver metastasis.

1995년 1월에서 1995년 3월까지 심근 손상이 의심되는 환자 및 정상대조군에 대한 TnT, 총 LD, 총 CK 및 각 동위효소에 대한 고찰에서 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. Tropohin T는 정상인에서 $0.01{\pm}0.02{\mu}g/L$, 급성심근경색환자에서 최고치는 4.7-24.2 ${\mu}g/L$로 나타났으며, 초기검사에서 정상범위에 속한 환자에서 6시간 후 추적조사에서는 모든 증례에서 1.0 ${\mu}g/L$이상으로 나타났다. 총 LD는 1-3일경에 최고치를 보인 후 점차적으로 감소되었으나, LD1/LD2 비율은 대부분의 환자에서 10일 이상 1.0이상으로 유지되므로, 상대적으로 늦은 시간에 내원한 경우 총 LD와 LD1/LD2 비율이 진단에 유용할 것으로 사료되었다. 총 CK 및 CK-MB인 경우 대부분의 환자에서 3-4일 후 정상 범위로 떨어지므로, 조기진단에는 도움이 되나, 장기간의 추적조사에는 유용성이 없는 것으로 사료되었다. 총 Lactate Dehydrogenase, LD1/LD2 비율, 총 Creatine Kinase, CK-MB와 Troponin T의 상호비교에서 Troponin T가 상대적으로 초기 혹은 장기간 경과된 경우에도 유용한 지표로 사료되었다.

The enzyme activities of creatine kinase (CK), its isoenzyme MB (CK-MB) and of lactate dehydrogenase isoenzyme 1 (LD-1) have been used for years in diagnosing patients with chest pain in order to differentiate patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) from non-AMI patients. These methods are easy to perform as automated analyses, but they are not specific for cardiac muscle damage. During the early 90's the situation changed. First, creatine kinase ME mass (CK-MB mass) replaced the measurement of CK-MB activity. Subsequently cardiac-specific proteins, troponin T (cTnT) and troponin I (cTnI) appeared and displacing LD-1 analysis. However, troponin concentrations in blood increase only from four to six hours after onset of chest pain. Therefore a rapid marker such as myoglobin, fatty acid binding protein or glycogen phosphorylase BB could be used in early diagnosis of AMI. On the other hand, CK-MB isoforms alone may also be useful in rapid diagnosis of cardiac muscle damage. Myoglobin, CK-MB mass, cTnT and cTnI are nowadays widely used in diagnosing patients with acute chest pain. Myoglobin is not cardiac-specific and therefore requires supplementation with some other analyses such as troponins to support the myoglobin value. Troponins are very highly cardiac-specific. Only the sera of some patients with severe renal failure, which requires hemodialysis, have elevated cTnT and/or cTnI without there being any evidence of cardiac damage. The latest studies have shown that elevated troponin levels in sera of hemodialysis patients point to an increased risk of future cardiac events in a similar manner to the elevated troponin values in sera of patients with unstable angina pectoris. In addition, the bedside tests for cTnT and cTnI alone- or together with myoglobin and CK-ME mass can be used instead of quantitative analyses in the diagnosis of patients with chest pain. These rapid tests are easy to perform and they do not require expensive instrumentation. For the diagnosis of patient with chest pain, routinely myoglobin and CK-ME mass measurements should be performed whenever they are requested (24 h/day) and cTnT or cTnI on admission to the hospital and then 4-6 and 12 hours later and maintained less than 10% in imprecision.

배경: 술후 심근경색(perioperative myocardial infarction;PMI)은 관상동맥 우회술 후 중요한 합병증 중 하나이다. PMI의 진단 방법 중 CK-MB 활성도(CK-MB activity) 측정보다 민감하고, 간단한 측정 방법을 가진 CK-MB 농도(CK-MB mass)의 측정으로 점차 대체되고 있다. 또한, cardiac troponin I(cTnl)는 심근경색의 표지자로 민감도와 특이도가 가장 높은 것으로 소개되고 있다. 본 연구는 관상동맥 우회술 후 심근경색의 표지자로서 CK-MB농도와 cTnl의 임상적 의의성에 대한 평가를 보고하고자 한다. 대상 및 방법: 2000년 4월부터 2001년 4월까지 강동성심병원에서 관상동맥 우회술을 받은 32명의 환자를 대상으로 하였다. 술후 CK-MB 활성도, CK-MB농도, cTnl, 심전도, 심초음파, 임상적 자료를 전향적으로 기록하였다. 술후 심근경색의 진단은 심전도에서 새로운 Q파 출현, CK-MB 활성도가 72시간안에 200 lU/L 이상, 심초음파에서 심근벽의 새로운 심근벽 운동이상 등의 3가지 중 2가지 이상인 경우로 정의하였다 결과: 관상동맥 우회술 후 3례에서 진단 기준에 부합된 경우였다. 시간 경과에 따라, 술후 12시간의 CK-MB활성도와 술후 24시간의 CK-MB농도(R=0.946), 술후 48시간의 cTnl(R=0.933)는 매우 상관성이 있었다(p=0.000). PM의 진단기준치를 찾기 위해 ROC(receiver operating characteristics) 곡선을 이용하였으며, PMI의 환자중 술후 24시간에서 CK-MB 농도가 30.05 ug/L보다 높은 측정값에서 PMI를 발견할 수 있었고, 이 때의 ROC 곡선의 하단 단면적은 1이었으며, 민감도 100%, 특이도 100%, 양성 예측도 100%, 음성 예측도 100% 이었다. cTnI의 경우 술후 48시간에서 17.15ug/L보다 높은 측정값에서 PMI를 발견할 수 있었고, 이 때의 ROC 곡선의 하단 단면적은 0.98이었으며, 민감도 100%, 특이도 96.6%, 양성 예측도 75%, 음성 예측도 100% 이었다. 결론: 관상동맥 우회술 후 심근경색의 진단적 표지자로서 CK-MB농도와 cTnl의 측정은 간단하고 정확한 방법으로 판단되며, 진단기준치를 제시함으로서 술후 심근경색의 조기 발견을 가능하게 할 수 있을 것이라 생각된다. 그러나 본 연구에서는 대상환자 수가 적었고, 적은 수의 환자에서 심근경색이 발생하여 통계적인 제한이 있을 수 있어 향후 더 많은 대상의 수가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

This study was conducted to investigate the relationship between ACE gene polymorphism and muscle damage parameters after eccentric exercise. 80 collegiate males were instructed to take an eccentric exercise with the elbow flexor muscle through the modified preacher curl machine for 2 sets of 25 cycles (total 50 cycles). The maximal isometric strength, muscle soreness, creatine kinase (CK), and myoglobin (Mb) were measured before exercise, and 0, 24, 48, 72, and 96 hrs after exercise. The result showed that after the eccentric exercise, the maximal isometric strength significantly decreased by more than 50% (p < 0.001) and the muscle soreness, CK, and Mb significantly increased compared to those before the exercise (p < 0.001). The ACE gene polymorphism of the subjects was classified using real-time polymerase chain reaction (real-time PCR). The result showed that it consisted of 38 cases of type II (46.4%), 33 cases of type ID (43.4%), and 9 cases of type DD (10.2%). The Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium for ACE gene polymorphism was shown to have p = 0.653, which showed that each allele was evenly distributed. Although significant differences in the changes in the maximal isometric strength, muscle soreness, CK, and Mb were found according to time course (p < 0.001), no significant differences in the changes in the maximal isometric strength, muscle soreness, CK, and Mb were found according to ACE gene polymorphism. Furthermore, no significant difference in the changes in the muscle damage parameters was found according to interaction between ACE gene polymorphism and time course (p > 0.05). In conclusion, the level of the muscle damage parameters changed in the injured muscle after eccentric exercise, but these changes in the muscle damage parameters were not affected by ACE gene polymorphism. The result of this study indicates that ACE gene is not a candidate gene that explains muscle damage.

The purpose of the present study was to investigate cardiac damage biomarkers after a triathlon race in elite and non-elite athlete groups. Fifteen healthy men participated in the study. Based on performance, they were divided into elite athlete group (EG: n＝7) and non-elite athlete group (NEG: n＝8). Participants' blood samples were obtained during four periods: before, immediately, 2 hours and 7 days after finishing the race. creatine kinase (CK), creatine kinase-myoglobin (CK-MB), myoglobin, and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) were significantly increased in both groups immediately after, and 2 hours after finishing the race (p<.05). CK, CK-MB, and myoglobin were completely recovered after 7 days (p<.05). Hematocrit (Hct) was significantly decreased in both groups (p<.05) 7 days after the race. LDH was significantly decreased in the EG (p<.05) only 7 days after the race. Homoglobin (Hb) was significantly decreased in the NEG (p<.05) only 2 hours after the race. Although cardiac troponin T (cTnT) was significantly increased in the EG but not in the NEG 2hours after the race (p<.05), there was no group-by-time interaction. cTnT was completely recovered in both groups 7 days after the race. In conclusion, cardiac damage occurs during a triathlon race and, is greater in elite than in non-elite. However, all cardiac damage markers return to normal range within 1 week.

In recent, many cardiac centers have preferred off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) to on-pump CABG to prevent the adverse effects of cardiopulmonary bypass. The present study was performed to prove beneficial effects of off-pump CABG. Sixty adult patients scheduled for elective CABG were randomly assigned to On-pump group (n=30) or Off-pump group (n=30). Arterial blood samples were drawn before and after the operation (Pre-OP and Post-OP, respectively) for measuring CBC, prothrombin time, activated thromboplastine time, blood gas analysis, creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB) level, and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) level. Perioperative parameters including heparin and protamine usages, complications, blood components usages, blood loss, ventilation and ICU-staying time, and hospitalization were also evaluated. Platelet count at Post-OP was high in Off-pump group whereas CK-MB and LDH levels were low compared with On-pump group. Off-pump group had significantly lower heparin and protamine usages, lower total leukocyte count, higher hematocrit and hemoglobin levels, less blood loss, lower usages of blood components, shorter ventilation and ICU-staying time, and lower incidence of pleural effusion than On-pump group. Other variables did not significantly differ between two groups. These results showed that Off-pump CABG was a satisfactory technique with less inflammatory reaction, less cardiac damage, less postoperative complications, and less cost.
