Increased serum creatine kinase after exercise: a sex-linked phenomenon. 1979

J B Shumate, and M H Brooke, and J E Carroll, and J E Davis

The effect of 2 hours of exercise on the serum creatine kinase (CK) level was investigated in 11 men and 9 women. The mean increase of CK 24 hours after exercise was significantly greater in men. The relative lack of CK elevation in women may: (1) indicate that female muscle is less susceptible to damage by adverse factors; and (2) explain discrepancies in previous reports.

D007773 Lactates Salts or esters of LACTIC ACID containing the general formula CH3CHOHCOOR.
D008297 Male Males
D011773 Pyruvates Derivatives of PYRUVIC ACID, including its salts and esters.
D003402 Creatine Kinase A transferase that catalyzes formation of PHOSPHOCREATINE from ATP + CREATINE. The reaction stores ATP energy as phosphocreatine. Three cytoplasmic ISOENZYMES have been identified in human tissues: the MM type from SKELETAL MUSCLE, the MB type from myocardial tissue and the BB type from nervous tissue as well as a mitochondrial isoenzyme. Macro-creatine kinase refers to creatine kinase complexed with other serum proteins.
