[[Creatine kinase|Creatine kinase]] (CK, creatine phosphokinase, CPK) is derived predominantly from skeletal muscle and heart. Normal CK values in association with non-specific tests for hepatocellular damage (AST, LDH) may indicate liver disease.  Plasma CK values increase with muscle damage. CK elevations may be due to rough handling at the time of venipuncture and following the intramuscular injection of some chemotherapeutic agents, especially enrofloxacin.
