Abstract
The almost universal presence of the isoenzyme creatine phosphokinase brain band (CPK-BB) in the sera of patients with chronic renal insufficiency and serum creatinine above 4.5 mg/dl is noted. It is absent in patients with severe acute renal failure and in transplanted patients with normal renal function. The source of the enzyme may be nerve tissue and may represent neuronal cell damage in uremics over a period of time.Entities:
