  • Title: Influence of physical exercise on plasma creatine kinase activity in healthy and dystrophic turkeys and sheep.
    Author: Tripp MJ, Schmitz JA.
    Journal: Am J Vet Res; 1982 Dec; 43(12):2220-3. PubMed ID: 7165169.
    Abstract:
    Plasma creatine kinase (P-CK) activities were significantly increased after physical exercise in healthy turkeys and in turkeys with genetic muscular dystrophy. Activities as high as 100,500 mU/ml of plasma were observed. Activities remained high for at least 29 hours after exercise. Moderate exercise did not significantly affect P-CK activity in lambs. Increases in P-CK activity during expression of nutritional muscular dystrophy were readily distinguished from exercise effects; activity exceeded 160,000 mU/ml in lambs during expression of that condition.
