A heterocyclic amine 2-amino-1-methyl-5H-imidazol-4-one formed by the metabolism of creatine
Creatinine is a waste product of muscle metabolism The blood concentration of Creatinine depends upon two things - the amount of muscle you have and the ability of your kidneys to excrete the Creatinine The protein you consume does not affect it High levels of Creatinine in the blood usually indicate deterioration in kidney function High values require medical evaluation by your health care provider, especially when associated with high BUN results Low values are not generally considered significant
An end-product of protein metabolism found in the blood and urine, that can be used to help assess if the kidneys are working adequately A related test, using simultaneous measurements of a timed urine sample plus a blood creatinine test, is called the creatinine clearance
An amino acid secreted by the kidney A blood test, urine test, or both for creatinine helps to determine kidney function
A waste product of creatine metabolism There are high levels of creatinine in the blood when the kidneys are not functioning properly
A substance found in the blood, urine and muscle tissue; it is measured in blood and urine tests to determine the level of kidney function
A proteinlike substance manufactured by your muscles (but also found in some meats) that has been found to increase athletic performance and delay fatigue Gives the muscles strength and a greater ability to do high-intensity exercise such as sprinting Also helps buffer the lactic acid that accumulates during high-intensity exercise
A component of urine, and the final breakdown product of creatine, which is an important molecule for building energy reserves, for example, in muscle cells
Creatinine is a component of urine that is measured in certain tests to determine how well the kidneys are functioning
A chemical found in the blood and passed in the urine A test of the amount of creatinine in blood or in blood and urine shows if the kidney is working right or if it is diseased This is called the creatinine clearance test
{i} chemical compound found in the muscles of vertebrate animals
Urinary waste product which reacts with chlorine and can cause eye irritation Cannot be removed by shock dosing
a protein in muscles and blood
A metabolite of muscle creatine, a molecule which provides a quick, short supply of ATP to muscles Creatinine is released into the blood at a relatively constant rate, and is used as an indicator of GFR and renal function
A small chemical compound normally excreted by kidney If the kidneys are damaged, the serum level of creatinine builds up, resulting in an elevated serum creatinine The serum creatinine test is used to measure kidney function
A waste substance produced by the muscles when they are used The name creatinine is also given to a blood test that measures the blood level of creatinine The higher the blood creatinine level, the worse the kidneys (or dialysis or a kidney transplant) are working
Creatinine is a waste product produced by the body during muscle metabolism Abnormal creatinine levels may indicate decreased kidney function Parameter/creatinine measurements in healthy persons are used to compensate for urine concentration
- a waste product normally found in your blood and urine that is a good indicator of kidney function Creatinine values rise when your kidneys are not working properly
A product of muscle metabolism Creatinine level is referred to as a number that is watched closely and serves as an indicator of kidney function
A nitrogen based solute which is elevated in uremia
By-product of muscle activity normally removed from the blood by the kidneys Normal blood level is 0 6-1 4 mgm% When blood level is above normal, this indicates that kidney function is not normal It is one of the main laboratory tests followed after a transplant to see how well the kidney is working
(kree-AT-ih-nin)
Creatinine is a chemical substance excreted in the urine, which is derived from creatine and creatine phosphate These substances serve to maintain adequate amounts of the substance adenosine triphosphate (ATP) which produces muscle contractions
A component of urine and the final product of creatine catabolism

creatinine kinase
(Tıp, İlaç) Creatine kinase (CK), also known as creatine phosphokinase (CPK) or phospho-creatine kinase (and sometimes wrongly as creatinine kinase), is an enzyme expressed by various tissues and cell types. CK catalyses the conversion of creatine and consumes adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to create phosphocreatine and adenosine diphosphate (ADP). This CK enzyme reaction is reversible, such that also ATP can be generated from PCr and ADP
