Carbonic anhydrase III in Duchenne muscular dystrophy. 1983

N D Carter, and R Heath, and S Jeffery, and M J Jackson, and D J Newham, and R H Edwards

Plasma carbonic anhydrase III (CAIII) levels determined by radioimmunoassay have been compared, in detail, with creatine kinase (CK) as indices of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). CAIII levels were markedly elevated in all patients but variability of levels in a number of individual patients was higher than CK.

D002648 Child A person 6 to 12 years of age. An individual 2 to 5 years old is CHILD, PRESCHOOL. Children
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.
