Systolic cardiac function is typically preserved in obese adults, potentially masking underlying declines in cardiomyocyte metabolism that may contribute to heart failure. We used chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) MRI, a sensitive method for measurement of myocardial creatine, to examine
Background: The combination of sarcopenia and obesity has been associated with physical impairment in older people. However, previous research has relied on assessments of lean mass as a surrogate for muscle mass. We postulate that inaccurate measures of muscle
BACKGROUND
Obesity is associated with inflammation, but the role of lean mass and creatine kinase (CK) on the inflammatory process is less known. We investigated the associations between lean mass, CK and fat mass upon inflammatory parameters in an overweight and obese adult population.

OBJECTIVE
Resistance exercise is used as a non-pharmacological tool to elicit both gains in and maintenance of physical function in the elderly. Thus, the present study examined the acute response of creatine kinase and interleukin-6 following an eccentric resistance exercise session in elderly
Insulin binding studies performed in erythrocytes (RBC) have been employed in clinical studies assessing the status of insulin receptors at target cell tissues. However, some authors challenged this assumption on the basis of some discrepancies described in comparative studies of other cell types,
We report creatine kinase (CK) and CK-MB values during a cycloergometric test up to maximal work capacity in 10 normal subjects aged 20 to 39 years (mean body mass index, 22 kg/m2) and 11 obese patients aged 17 to 42 years (mean body mass index, 41 kg/m2), all without any cardiorespiratory diseases.
Creatine kinase (CK), the central regulatory enzyme of energy metabolism, is particularly high in type II skeletal muscle fibers, which are associated with insulin resistance and obesity. As resting plasma CK is mainly derived from skeletal muscle, we assessed whether plasma CK is associated with
Diet-induced obesity (DIO) has been shown to exacerbate hearing degeneration via increased hypoxia, inflammatory responses, and cell loss via both caspase-dependent and caspase-independent apoptosis signaling pathways. This study aimed to investigate the effects of DIO on the mRNA expressions of
We investigated the association between serum creatine kinase (CK) and body fat mass in an overweight and obese population. In this cross-sectional study, 454 Caucasian overweight and obese individuals recruited from a medical outpatient clinic and via newspaper advertising underwent dual-energy
Diet-induced thermogenesis is an important homeostatic mechanism that limits weight gain in response to caloric excess and contributes to the relative stability of body weight in most individuals. We previously demonstrated that creatine enhances energy expenditure through stimulation of
Background: Obesity is strongly associated with exercise intolerance and development of heart failure. While myocardial energetics and diastolic function are impaired in obesity, systolic function is usually preserved. This suggests that the rate of ATP delivery is maintained, but this has
To identify biomarkers to assess participants' compliance in an intervention study with high intake of cod or salmon, compared to a fish-free diet.In this randomised clinical trial, 62 healthy overweight/obese participants consumed 750 g/week of either cod Obese subjects are at increased risk for cardiovascular disease manifestations. The CK value is an important aid in the diagnosis of myocardial infarction, but may also be increased by factors such as muscle mass or breakdown of muscle tissue. We analysed CK values in 120 obese patients in our
