Notes: Creatine phosphate is a phosphorylated form of creatine that is involved in energy storage in skeletal muscle and brain.{20573,55668} It is formed from creatine by creatine kinase. Creatine phosphate (10 mM) reduces hydrogen peroxide- and ferrous ion-induced increases in malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in rat heart microsomes.{64746} It also prevents hydrogen peroxide-induced decreases in aortic flow, minute work, and peak aortic pressure in isolated perfused rat hearts when used at a concentration of 10 mM. Brain levels of creatine phosphate decrease following mild traumatic brain injury in rats.{64747}
