Mechanism of Production & Renal Elimination of Creatinine

The video explains the formation and excretion of creatinine, a waste product from creatine. It details the role of creatine phosphate in ATP production during high-intensity exercise and the non-enzymatic degradation of creatine phosphate to creatinine. The transport of creatinine to the kidneys and its excretion in urine is discussed, along with the impact of exercise on creatinine formation. The video also highlights the diagnostic use of creatinine levels in detecting heart attacks.
