Popis: | Isoelectric focusing (IEF) was used to analyze the serum MM-CK isoenzyme subtypes in 16 patients receiving streptokinase (SK) for attempted coronary thrombolysis early after acute myocardial infarction. Twelve patients had revascularization documented by serial coronary angiograms (Group I); in four patients, angiography documented no such reperfusion (Group II). The data also were compared with a previously reported group of 8 patients who did not receive streptokinase (Group III). Total and MB-CK activity, as well as the MM-CK isoenzyme subtypes MM3-CK, MM2-CK, and MM1-CK tended to rise earlier and peak earlier in Group I compared with Group II; serum MM3-CK, the predominant subtype in myocardium, however, definitely peaked earlier in Group I (8.65 +/- 2.07 hr) compared with Group II (18.50 +/- 6.67 hr) (p less than 0.001). Soon after its release from myocardium, MM3-CK is converted in the serum to MM2-CK and eventually to MM1-CK; thus, the MM3-CK:MM1-CK ratio amplifies the time course of subtype conversion. The MM3-CK:MM1-CK activity ratio peaked earlier in Group I (5.51 +/- 0.97 H) compared to Group II (10.74 +/- 3.28 hr) (p less than 0.01), and peaked even earlier than MM3-CK (p less than 0.007) in both Groups I and II. Thus, the time course of the MM3-CK:MM1-CK ratio separates those patients who reperfuse when early SK is used after acute myocardial infarction from those who do not, and does it significantly earlier than the other enzymatic parameters of cellular necrosis, total CK, and MB-CK. |
