(usp.br)
Creatine kinase (CK) is an enzyme, found primarily in muscle and brain tissue, which exists as three dimeric isoenzymes: CK-MM (CK-3), CK-MB (CK-2), and CK-BB (CK-1) − built from subunits designated M and B. The CK-MB isoenzyme, which has a molecular mass of approximately 87 kilodaltons, accounts for 5% to 50% of total CK activity in myocardium. (evexiadiagnostics.com)

The CK enzyme consists of two subunits, which can be either B (brain type) or M (muscle type), and hence three different isoenzymes: CK-MM, CK-BB and CK-MB. (gentaur.nl)
Acute Myocardial2
Unfortunately, myoglobin is not cardiac specific, being also found in skeletal muscle , and thus is less useful in the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction unless used in conjunction with other markets. (online-sciences.com)
This examination determines the blood's concentration of several lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) isoenzymes. (ganeshdiagnostic.com)

In skeletal muscle, by contrast, it normally accounts for ≤1%, CK-MM being the dominant form, though the percentage can be as high as 10% in conditions reflecting skeletal muscle injury and regeneration (eg, severe exercise, muscular dystrophy, polymyositis). (evexiadiagnostics.com)
When there is an increase in the amount of CK present in the blood, the CK-MB test can be used to determine whether it is due to heart damage or might be related to skeletal muscle injury. (orangehealth.in)
Therefore, skeletal muscle injury can sometimes cause elevated CK-MB levels, leading to misinterpretation. (medscape.com)
