Genetic variation and plasma creatine kinase activity.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The distribution of plasma creatine kinase (CK; E.C.2.7.3.2) is known to be skewed, and this has made it difficult to analyse the sources of variation. We have studied plasma CK in 206 pairs of twins and have analysed the results after separating them into what appear to be two Gaussian frequency distributions. The results in the main distribution (CK less than 300 iu/1) are apparently affected by genetic factors common to both men and women, and by environmental factors which are of much greater effect in men. The tendency for some men to have very high CK values may also have a genetic basis.

Background Nicotine, cotinine and cadmium are harmful components of cigarettes that have an effect on human reproductive function. Although the effects of cigarette smoke on male reproductive function is characterized in several articles its mechanism of action is still unknown. In the present study, we investigate the effect of nicotine, cotinine and cadmium on human sperm creatine kinase acti...
