Abstract

Creatine kinase (CK) release from male and female rat soleus muscles was studied for 4.5 h in vitro, under basal conditions and after electrical stimulation. Basal CK release was greater from male than from female muscles, and CK release from male muscles increased significantly when the muscle tension in the in‐vitro set‐up was increased. CK release after electrical stimulation was also more marked in male soleus muscles. Pretreatment of male rats and ovariectomized female rats with oestradiol for 3 weeks attenuated the enzyme efflux, but ovariectomy 24 h before in females, or oestradiol administration 24 h before in males, did not affect the release of CK in vitro. The data show that sex‐linked differences in CK efflux are still present, under both basal and stimulated conditions, when muscles are isolated from the intact animal, and that hormone treatment of the intact animal affects these properties in the isolated muscle in vitro. (Experiments with rats were performed under supervision of a legally appointed administrator.)

  • Studies on muscle repair following exercise-induced injury highlight a sex-based difference in which higher levels of muscle creatine kinase (indicative of injury) are observed in male than in female rats following injury. Following OVX, levels of muscle creatine kinase in females are similar to levels in injured males.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
