Using an electrophoretic method, the changes in the catalytic activities of three CK-MM isoforms (MM1, MM2, MM3) and two CK-MB isoforms (MB1, MB2) in the serum of 13 patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) have been monitored for 3 days after the onset of chest pain. In post-AMI period, MM3 reaches a peak first, 17 h after infarction (394 U/l), followed by MB2 (17.3 h, 190 U/l), MB1 (20.6 h, 82 U/l), MM2 (28.7 h, 637 U/l), and MM1 (32 h, 780 U/l). According to their faster decay from circulation, MB2 and MM3 have higher fractional disappearance rates (-0.035 and -0.026 per hour, respectively). The MM3/MM1 activity ratio rises beyond the upper limit found in healthy subjects within about 3 h after onset of symptoms and peaks 9.3 h after AMI, even earlier than peaks of isoforms. These characteristics make the ratio an earlier and more sensitive indicator of acute enzyme release from necrotic myocardium.
