Serum creatine kinase isoenzyme BB in mammalian osteopetrosis.

Abstract excerpt

In mammalian osteopetrosis the different mutations exemplify reduced bone resorption leading to net accumulation of bone. Recently, high blood levels of creatine kinase-BB have been reported in some human forms, suggesting it as a marker of osteopetrosis. In the current study serum creatine kinase-BB was evaluated in relation to known osteoclastic pathophysiology in two human types of autosomal dominant...
