Alterations in the creatine kinase system in the myocardium of cardiomyopathic hamsters.

Abstract:

:Immunochemical and biochemical methods were used to assess quantitatively the changes in the heart creatine kinase system in the myopathic Syrian hamsters, line CHF I46. Cardiomyopathy in I75-200 day old animals was characterized by decreased content of mitochondria and lower total creatine kinase activity. In isolated mitochondria only the creatine kinase activity was decreased while cytochromes aa3 content and respiration rate were unchanged. The share of mitochondrial creatine kinase in the total tissue enzyme activity was decreased from 33% to I8% and that of BB form was elevated from 5% in control to 20%, at unchanged relative level of MM. Immunoassay showed decreased amount of the mitochondrial creatine kinase in the tissue and its decreased ratio to cytochromes aa3. The results show altered expression of creatine kinase isoenzymes in cardiomyopathy.
