Creatine kinase-deficient hearts exhibit increased susceptibility to ischemia-reperfusion injury and impaired calcium homeostasis.
The creatine kinase (CK) system is involved in the rapid transport of high-energy phosphates from the mitochondria to the sites of maximal energy requirements such as myofibrils and sarcolemmal ion pumps. Hearts of mice with a combined knockout of cytosolic M-CK and mitochondrial CK (M/Mito-CK(-/-))...
