Creatine kinase isoenzyme profiles in the plasma of the domestic fowl ( Gallus domesticus): effects of acute heat stress

Creatine kinase isoenzyme activities in extracts of plasma, skeletal muscle, heart and brain tissue of domestic fowls were separated by anion exchange chromatography and tissue specific distributions of the isoenzyme designated MM-CK, BB-CK1 and BB-CK2 were demonstrated. The muscle isoenzyme ( MM-CK...

Description
Summary:Creatine kinase isoenzyme activities in extracts of plasma, skeletal muscle, heart and brain tissue of domestic fowls were separated by anion exchange chromatography and tissue specific distributions of the isoenzyme designated MM-CK, BB-CK1 and BB-CK2 were demonstrated. The muscle isoenzyme ( MM-CK) was the predominant form in plasma (99 per cent) and its activity increased in response to an episode of acute heat stress.
