Common and rare variants associating with serum levels of creatine kinase and lactate dehydrogenase

Common and rare variants associating with serum levels of creatine kinase and lactate dehydrogenase

Creatine kinase (CK) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) are biomarkers of tissue damages including myopathy and myocardial infarction. Here, Patrick Sulem and colleagues perform a genome-wide association study to identify common and rare genetic variants that associates with serum CK or LDH levels.
