When cells are damaged by disease or injury, large amounts of these leak out, causing blood tests to show that enzymes are elevated above normal. (You can roughly compare this situation to a car that's leaking oil. Leaks in many parts of the engine can have the same result: oil all over your driveway.)
Purpose. When the CPK level in the blood is very high, it often means there has been injury or stress to the heart, skeletal muscle tissue, or even the brain. This is because CPK leaks into the bloodstream whenever this type of damage occurs.urpose.
