Creatine Kinase (CPK) is a group of enzymes found in skeletal muscle, the brain, and the heart muscle. Damage to one or more of these tissues will liberate CPK into the serum thus raising serum levels. Decreased levels of Creatine Kinase may be seen in the chronic stage of muscle atrophy. Increased levels of CPK are associated with muscle damage or breakdown, damage to the heart muscle as in an acute MI, heavy exercise, and brain damage or inflammation.
