Cardiac cells damaged by infarction will show which of the following?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

All of the options listed are signs of cardiac cell damage caused by an infarction. Switching to anaerobic metabolism occurs when there is a lack of oxygen supply. The release of enzymes such as lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and aspartate transaminase (AST) into the circulation is also common. However, troponin T and I are more specific markers for cardiac damage as they are only found in cardiac cells. CK-MB is another enzyme that is specific to the heart and is released when there is damage. Therefore, all of the answers are correct.
