During a heart attack, heart muscle cells die due to lack of oxygen. Cardiac enzymes from the dying cells leak into the bloodstream. In addition to a heart attack, other cardiac diseases that can cause elevated cardiac enzymes include: -- heart failure, or weakness of the heart muscle. -- inflammation of the sac surrounding the heart, or pericarditis. -- inflammation of the heart muscle, or myocarditis.
Elevated Cardiac Enzymes and Troponin. The cells of the heart contain enzymes that are released when the cells die or are damaged. As a muscle that expends energy, the heart requires its own supply of blood, just like the tissues to which it pumps blood. Blood carries oxygen, which is used to make ATP in cells.
