Inferring Compensatory Kinase Networks in Yeast using Prolog [PDF]

open access: yesEPTCS 385, 2023, pp. 260-273, 2023
Signalling pathways are conserved across different species, therefore making yeast a model organism to study these via disruption of kinase activity. Yeast has 159 genes that encode protein kinases and phosphatases, and 136 of these have counterparts in humans.

High creatine kinase-muscle brain levels greatly exceeding total creatine kinase levels in a 2-month-old infant

open access: yesIndian Journal of Health Sciences and Biomedical Research KLEU, 2020
The measurement of creatine kinase muscle brain (CK-MB) by the method of immunoinhibition has various drawbacks, which are posing as a hindrance in its role as a sensitive diagnostic indicator.

Mean Serum Creatine Kinase among Organophosphate Poisoning Cases in a Tertiary Care Centre: A Descriptive Cross-sectional Study

open access: yesJournal of Nepal Medical Association, 2022
Introduction: Major cases of poisoning are associated with organophosphates. Cholinergic effects and an intermediate phase seen with organophosphate poisoning may implicate myopathy. Creatine kinase is a marker of muscle tissue damage.

Creatine kinase elevation and discontinuation of clozapine: fear-driven clinical practice in a forensic case with treatment-resistant schizophrenia and persistent violent behaviour

open access: yesBJPsych Open, 2021
In forensic settings, the most common indication for clozapine is treatment-resistant schizophrenia (TRS). Clozapine has also been shown to be effective in reducing hostility, aggression and violence in patients with schizophrenia and is of benefit in ...
