Measurement of serum enzymes
Diagnostic enzymologyEnzymes are normally intracellular and LOW concentration in bloodEnzyme release (leakage)in the blood indicates cell damage (cell –death, hypoxia, intracellular toxicity)Quantitative measure of cell/tissue damage
Organ specificity- but not absolute specificity inspite of same gene content. Most enzymes are present in most cells-differing amounts

Information from enzymes measurements in serum
Presence of diseaseOrgans involvedAetiology /nature of disease: differential diagnosisExtent of disease-more damaged cells-more leaked enzymes in bloodTime course of disease

SERUM ENZYMES IN HEART DISEASES
1) CK(CPK)2) CK-MB3) Troponin-I/T4) LDH5) AST6) Others
![Page 5: Recent advances in enzymology](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042517/587055581a28aba2118b52c7/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
CARDIAC TROPONINS
Not enzymes Now accepted as reliable markers for
myocardial infarction 3 subunits:- 1) Troponin T(TnT): Tropomyosin binding
elements 2) Troponin I(TnI): Actinomyosin ATPase
inhibitory elements 3)Troponin C(TnC): Calcium binding
![Page 6: Recent advances in enzymology](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042517/587055581a28aba2118b52c7/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Cardiac isoform of CTnT & CTnI:- 95% located in myofibrils & 5% cytoplasmic
TnT:- ↑ within 6 hrs of MI & remains ↑ up to 7-14 days. TnI:- released into the blood within 4 hrs after the onset of symptoms of myocardial ischemia; peaks at 14-24 hrs & remains ↑ for 3-5 days post-infarction.
Note:- cardiac troponin ↑ at lower conc. than the 99th percentile value used for MI but still have a risk of having an adverse cardiac event. Troponin-I:- 1 – 10 µg/L
![Page 7: Recent advances in enzymology](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042517/587055581a28aba2118b52c7/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Other Biomarkers
1) H-FABP:- Heart-type fatty acid binding protein Kinetically similar to myoglobin but more
specific to cardiac tissue which contains a greater percentage of this protein than skeletal muscle
May also have role in prediction- prognosis in patients with NSTEMI
Current studies ongoing to further evaluate its utility
![Page 8: Recent advances in enzymology](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042517/587055581a28aba2118b52c7/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
2) Brain Natriuretic Peptide(BNP):-
Natriuretic peptide family consists of 3 peptides:- a) atrial natriuretic peptide(ANP) b) brain natriuretic peptide(BNP) c) C-type natriuretic peptide(CNP)
ANP:-produced in cardiac atria.
![Page 9: Recent advances in enzymology](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042517/587055581a28aba2118b52c7/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
BNP:- present in human brain but more in cardiac ventricles. pro-BNP- 108A.As High plasma conc. of ANP & BNP :- CHF ↑ BNP- COPD pro-BNP:- best marker of ventricular dysfunction
![Page 10: Recent advances in enzymology](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042517/587055581a28aba2118b52c7/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Myeloperoxidase• MPO is an enzyme that aids white blood cells in
destroying bacteria and viral particles
• MPO catalyzes the conversion of hydrogen peroxide and chloride ions (Cl-) into hypochlorous acid
• Hypochlorous acid is 50 times more potent in microbial killing than hydrogen peroxide
• MPO is released in response to infection and inflammation
• EPIC Norfolk Study showed its predictive value for future cardiovascular disease events in asymptomatic adults.
![Page 11: Recent advances in enzymology](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042517/587055581a28aba2118b52c7/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Summary of MPO
• MPO leads to oxidized LDL cholesterol – Oxidized LDL is phagocytosed by macrophages
producing foam cells*• MPO leads to the consumption of nitric oxide
– Vasoconstriction and endothelial dysfunction• MPO can cause endothelial denuding and
superficial platelet aggregation• MPO indicates activated immune cells
– Activated immune cells and inflammation lead to unstable plaque*
• Inflammatory plaque is inherently less stable– Thin fibrous cap/fissured/denuded

CRP
Chronic inflammation also is an important component in the development & progression of atherosclerosis.
Numerous epidemiological studies have demonstrated that ↑ serum CRP conc. are +vely associated with a risk of future CHD events when using an hsCRP assay.
Synthesis- LIVER
CRP:- 0.5 – 1 mg/dl
![Page 13: Recent advances in enzymology](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042517/587055581a28aba2118b52c7/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Clinical Significance:-
Single hs-CRP measurement is a stong predictor of:-
a) MI b) Stroke c) Peripheral vascular disease d) Sudden cardiac death:- individuals without a
history of heart disease.
Direct comparison of traditional and novel biochemical markers of CHD risk, hsCRP is the strongest predictor of future coronary events.
