Cardiac troponin: an emerging cardiac biomarker in animal health

Abstract: Analysis of cardiac troponin I (cTn I) and T (cTnT) are considered the "gold standard" for the non-invasive diagnosis of myocardial injury in human and animals. It has replaced traditionally used cardiac biomarkers such as myoglobin, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), creatine kinase (CK) and CK-MB due to its high sensitivity and specificity for the detection of myocardial injury. Cardiac troponins are proteins that control the calcium-mediated interaction between actin and myosin, allowing contraction at the sarcom… Show more

“…Cardiac troponins (cTn) have a high sensitivity and specificity for myocardial injury. Troponin consists of three subunits: troponin I (cTn-I), troponin T (cTn-T), and troponin C. Troponin T and I are ideal diagnostic markers for myocardial injury since the heart and extracardiac muscle express distinct isoforms which are encoded by different genes (El-Khuffash and Molloy, 2008;Undhad et al, 2012). Owing to the positive correlation between the concentration of troponin and the size of myocardial injury developing after cardiac surgery or cardiotoxic drug treatment, troponin is useful as a prognostic indicator of mortality and morbidity in the paediatric age group.…”

“…Therefore, hypoxia may affect cardiac function. Cardiac biomarkers are used to identify cardiac disease in humans and animals (Undhad et al, 2012;Vijlbrief et al, 2012). Cardiac enzymes including lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and creatine kinase-MB fraction (CK-MB), as well as troponins are used in the determination of cardiac injury (Kemp et al, 2004).…”

“…Домрачева, у домашніх тварин серцево-судинна патологія поділяється на хвороби міокарда, перикарда, ендокарда та хвороби кровоносних судин. Існує тісна залежність між вище вказаними патологіями, віком та породами тварин (Stekol'nikov, 2009;Undhad et al, 2012;Zhulikova, 2016).…”

“…Estudos realizados com dosagem sérica de cTnT e cTnI, em diferentes espécies de animais indicaram aumento devido a lesões miocárdicas. Doenças cardíacas primárias ou secundarias e o uso de fármacos cardiotóxicos foram reconhecidos como causas de aumento das troponinas (Archer, 2003, Oyama and Solter, 2004, Wallace et al, 2004, Undhad et al, 2012; contudo Alves et al (2015) não constataram alterações no teste cromatográfico qualitativo de Troponina I em cães com cardiopatia crônica.…”
