| 1. | Troponin is a sensitive biomarker for a heart with insufficient blood supply.
|
| 2. | The thin filament is made of actin, tropomyosin, and troponin.
|
| 3. | Calcium ions then bind to troponin, which is associated with tropomyosin.
|
| 4. | Troponin I is not entirely specific for myocardial damage secondary to infarction.
|
| 5. | Troponin I is less likely to be falsely elevated.
|
| 6. | This causes the removal of ions from the troponin.
|
| 7. | Troponin C is a calcium-binding protein with similar homology to calmodulin.
|
| 8. | In some locations, the test has been superseded by the troponin test.
|
| 9. | This prognostic information was independent of troponin T, ECG and clinical examination.
|
| 10. | Markers of myocardial damage ( troponin or creatine kinase cardiac isoenzymes ) are elevated.
