Figure 3 CK-M protein normalized to beta-actin before and after left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation in patients with heart failure (A). Creatine kinase-mitochondrial (CK-Mt) normalized to beta-actin before and after LVAD implantation in patients with heart failure (B). CK-B normalized to beta-actin before and after LVAD implantation in patients with heart failure (C). Total CK activity per mg cardiac protein before and after LVAD implantation in patients with heart failure (D). Data are from seven hearts in which both pre- and post-LVAD specimens were available. Each symbol represents the specimens from the same heart.
