The creatine kinase system in human skin: protective effects of creatine against oxidative and UV damage in vitro and in vivo.
Holger Lenz,Melanie Schmidt,Vivienne Welge,Uwe Schlattner,Theo Wallimann,Hans-Peter Elsässer,Klaus-Peter Wittern,Horst Wenck,Franz Stäb,Thomas Blatt +9 more
TL;DR: Human skin cells that are energetically recharged with the naturally occurring energy precursor, creatine, are markedly protected against a variety of cellular stress conditions, like oxidative and UV damage in vitro and in vivo.

Inhibition of cytosolic and mitochondrial creatine kinase by siRNA in HaCaT- and HeLaS3-cells affects cell viability and mitochondrial morphology
Holger Lenz,Melanie Schmidt,Vivienne Welge,Thomas Kueper,Uwe Schlattner,Theo Wallimann,Hans-Peter Elsässer,Klaus-Peter Wittern,Horst Wenck,Franz Staeb,Thomas Blatt +10 more
TL;DR: The mitochondrial CK isoform appears to play the most crucial role in maintaining cell viability by stabilizing contact sites between inner and outer mitochondrial membranes and maintaining local metabolite channeling, thus avoiding transition pore opening which eventually results in activation of caspase cell-death pathways.
