Creatine King: A Case Study

89 Words1 Page

Creatine kinase is predominantly found in cardiac muscles and also in the skeletal muscles. It catalysis the conversion of creatine and utilizes the adenosine triphosphate to create phosphocreatine and adenosine diphosphate .Phosphocreatine serves for the rapid buffering and regeneration of ATP.This creatine kinase exist in three forms known as isoenzymes:CK-MM,CK-BB,and CK-MB.CK-MM is present in the skeletal muscle and myocardium,CK-BB is present in the brain and CK-MB is present in the myocardium. Therefore, in the case of myocardial infarction there will be slightly increase of the CK-MB in the

    Caldesmon 1 is a gene that is located on Chromosome 7: 134.74 – 134.97 Mb which encodes a calmodulin binding protein. (15) The products of CALD1 such as Calmodulin- and actin-binding proteins play an essential role in the regulation of smooth muscle and nonmuscle contraction. (16) CALD1 inhibits ATPase activity of myosin in smooth muscle like calponin. Caldesmon (CaD) is an actin-linked regulatory protein found in smooth muscle and non-muscle cells.

  • Benefits Of Creatine Essay

    This is done by the spent ATP et converted to the less energy rich molecule ADP. Creatine, both endogenous and that you take through supplements, is absorbed by the muscles and is converted into creatine phosphate, which is the form of creatine that upload ATP. Thus one can say that creatine phosphate is an energy buffer which maintains the level of ATP in some very intense muscle contractions. Creatine supplementation increases the content of creatine and creatine phosphate in the muscles, in the same way as charging carbohydrate increases muscle glycogen content. Kreatinladdning, that intake of 15-30 grams of creatine per day for 5-7 days, increases the total content of creatine in muscles by 15-30% and the amount of creatine phosphate by 10-40%.

    Rhabdomyolysis: an imbalance of toxins in blood due to the breakdown on skeletal muscle, could be just that. This disease can affect athletes of all ages and has devastating consequences. When, for instance a wrestler is hit hard on the mat and he injures a muscle, we normally wait for a bruise to arise and figure it will be gone quite soon. This impact on the muscle can actually lead to muscle damage or muscle death. The death of skeletal muscle tissue can leak poisonous intramuscular toxins such as myoglobin and creatine kinase (CK) into the blood stream and have you in the hospital within hours (Torres 2015).

  • Congestive Heart Failure Examples

    Congestive heart failure is a serious condition associated with reduced cardiac оutput, hyperthrоphy of the myоcardium, and stimulatiоn of the sympathetic NS. This results in down regulation of the beta AR number and cAMP in response to the оverstimulatiоn. Agonists of those receptors increase the cAMP levels, inverse agonists reduce those levels. However, it has been shown in vivo that inverse agonists such as metoprolol and bispolol cause improvement in mortality rates in mice models, xamoterol – an agonist used increased the mortality, while carvedolol – a neutral antagonist, did not have any effect (Greasley and Clapham, 2006).

  • Summary: Skeletal Muscles

    1789 Words  | 8 Pages

    The cardiac cycle is the coordination of the filling and exhausting of blood by electrical signals that cause the heart muscles to contract and unwind. The contraction of the heart is directed by a nerve drive that goes from the SA node to AV node to AV group to Purkinje fibers to the myocardium. Amid the cardiac cycle, the heart contracts by means of systole, pushing blood out of the heart, and unwinds through diastole, filling the heart with blood. Cardiomyocytes, or cardiac cells, are striated and are in charge of the pumping of the heart; they are the main muscle cells with intercalated plates. The heart's inner pacemaker controls and times the thumping of the heart by means of electrical signals.

    My goal for module 4 is to make adjustments to my diet to include certain healthy foods that are missing from my diet. My nutrition report informed me that my diet did not include enough of certain vegetables, including red and orange vegetables, as well as beans and peas. Also, I learned that the amount of dietary fiber I am consuming in my diet doesn’t meet the recommended amount. In order to address the problem I have with my diet not being balanced, I plan to track what I eat every week and to continue to make changes to what I consume until I am maintaining a healthy, balanced diet. Balancing my diet to receive the vitamins and nutrients my body needs will help improve my Adenosine Triphosphate, Anaerobic, and Aerobic energy systems, which will assist me in reaching my long term goal of increasing my cardiovascular fitness.

  • Essay On Chronic Heart Failure

    528 Words  | 3 Pages

    Chronic Heart Failure is a condition where the heart has failed to support the physiological circulation needed to provide the organs and tissues of the body with nutrients and oxygen (Peate & Dutton 2012). This condition usually occurs because the muscles of the heart have weakened or are too stiff to work. There are several causes of CHF, including heart attacks, high blood pressure, cardiomyopathy, heart valve problems and structural changes to the myocardium; yet the type of CHF depends on which part of the heart is affected and the extent of the damage (NICE 2010). There are around 900,000 people in the UK who suffer from heart failure and within a year 30-40% of patients will die due to heart failure. Statistics show that the survival rate for CHF is worse than breast or prostate cancer.

    In other words, the increase in stroke volume occurs as a result of improved ventricular force of contraction. Heterometric and homeometric control governs myocardial force of contraction. While homeometric control is independent of the myocardial fibres length at the end of diastole, heterometric control depends on this length of myocardial fibres at the diastole end and is mainly influenced by the venous return (Agarwal et al. CC06). The respiratory pump, as well as venoconstriction skeletal muscle pump, influences the rise in venous return during physical activity.
