Creatine and Creatinine Metabolism | Lecture 16

This lecture describes the metabolism of creatine and creatinine, their formation, degradation and removal from the blood. The importance of Creatine Kinase enzyme and its diagnostic use for the diagnosis of Myocardial Infarction has also been described along with the significance of creatinine clearance as an indicator of renal function.
Creatine is produced as a result of metabolism of a number of amino acids primarily in liver and kidney.
