Relationship of Blood Levels of Inflammatory and Destructive Biomarkers in Coronary Atherosclerosis with Long-Term Results of Surgical Revascularization
The relationships between blood levels of inflammatory and destructive biomarkers (TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8, soluble CD40 ligand, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, endothelial adhesion molecules, matrix metalloproteinase 3 and 9 and their tissue inhibitor type 1) were studied in men with coronary...

Summary: | The relationships between blood levels of inflammatory and destructive biomarkers (TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8, soluble CD40 ligand, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, endothelial adhesion molecules, matrix metalloproteinase 3 and 9 and their tissue inhibitor type 1) were studied in men with coronary atherosclerosis before and 5 years after coronary artery bypass surgery. In men with unfavorable course of coronary atherosclerosis in the delayed period, the initial blood levels of C-reactive protein and TNF-α by 1.7 and 3.0 times surpassed those in patients with favorable course of the disease. Associations were revealed between elevated blood content of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (
p
=0.01, odds ratio of 1.33) and IL-8 (
p
=0.02, odds ratio of 1.02) and deaths in the delayed period; IL-6 (
p
=0.01, odds ratio of 1.02) and cases of myocardial infarction; C-reactive protein (
p
=0.02, odds ratio of 1.24) and unfavorable course of the delayed period in general (death, myocardial infarction, worsening of angina pectoris functional class). |
