An organic compound of creatine and phosphoric acid; found in the muscles of vertebrates where its hydrolysis releases energy for muscular contraction.
Resting muscle concentrations of ATP and phosphocreatine did not change.
2
During cardioplegia, myocardial ATP and phosphocreatine contents increased and glycogen concentration tended to decrease.
3
Significant correlations were observed between endomyocardial and transmural adenine nucleotide and glycogen contents but not phosphocreatine content.
4
Creatine, a nitrogenous organic acid, replenishes cytoplasmic ATP at the expense of mitochondrial ATP via the phosphocreatine shuttle.
5
CKMT1 inhibition altered mitochondrial respiration and ATP production, an effect that was abrogated by phosphocreatine-mediated reactivation of the arginine-creatine pathway.
1
Conclusions: Administration of creatinephosphate did not produce any undesirable side effects.
2
You're never actually burning just sugar, fat, or creatinephosphate.
3
During rest, our muscles restore the used-up creatine back to creatinephosphate with spare aerobic energy.
4
Group 2 displayed a recovery of creatinephosphate but not of ATP at the end of reperfusion.
5
In the ischemic and in the non-ischemic myocardium of the left ventricle, ATP, creatinephosphate, and lactate were determined.
