Acute changes of myocardial creatine kinase gene expression under beta-adrenergic stimulation.
Creatine kinase (CK) plays a crucial role in myocardial energy metabolism. Alterations in CK gene expression are found in hypertrophied and failing heart, but the mechanisms behind these changes are unclear. This study tests the hypothesis that increased adrenergic stimulation, which is observed in...
