Soluble Urokinase-Type Plasminogen Activator Receptor and Arterial Stiffness in Patients with COPD
Introduction Soluble urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) is upregulated by inflammation and plays a role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is associated with enhanced systemic inflammation and increased risk for atherosclerosis, ho...

description | Introduction
Soluble urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) is upregulated by inflammation and plays a role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is associated with enhanced systemic inflammation and increased risk for atherosclerosis, however, studies analysing the circulating suPAR levels in COPD are contradictory. The aim of the study was to investigate plasma suPAR concentrations together with markers of arterial stiffness in COPD.
Materials and Methods
Twenty-four patients with COPD and 18 non-COPD, control subjects participated in the study. Plasma suPAR was measured, together with lung volumes, symptom burden, exacerbation history, markers of arterial stiffness and soluble inflammatory biomarkers, such as endothelin-1, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6).
Results
Plasma suPAR levels were higher in COPD (2.84 ± 0.67 ng/ml vs. 2.41 ± 0.57 ng/ml,
p
= 0.03) and were related to lung function measured with FEV

(
r
= − 0.65,
p
< 0.01) and symptom burden determined with the modified Medical Research Council questionnaire (
r
= 0.55,
p
< 0.05). Plasma suPAR concentrations correlated with various measures of arterial stiffness in all subjects, but only with ejection duration in COPD (
r

p
= 0.03).
Conclusions
Plasma suPAR levels are elevated in COPD and relate to arterial stiffness. Our results suggest that suPAR may be a potential link between COPD and atherosclerosis.</description><identifier>ISSN: 0341-2040</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1432-1750</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1007/s00408-019-00211-w</identifier><identifier>PMID: 30820636</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>New York: Springer US</publisher><subject>Aged ; Arteriosclerosis ; Atherosclerosis ; Biological markers ; Biomarkers ; Biomarkers - blood ; C-reactive protein ; C-Reactive Protein - analysis ; Cardiovascular Diseases - blood ; Cardiovascular Diseases - diagnosis ; Cardiovascular Diseases - physiopathology ; Case-Control Studies ; Chronic obstructive lung disease ; Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease ; COPD ; Correlation analysis ; Cross-Sectional Studies ; Ejection ; Endothelin 1 ; Endothelin-1 - blood ; Endothelins ; Female ; Forced Expiratory Volume ; Hormone replacement therapy ; Humans ; Inflammation ; Interleukin 6 ; Interleukin-6 - blood ; Interleukins ; Lung - physiopathology ; Lung diseases ; Male ; Medical research ; Medicine ; Medicine & Public Health ; Middle Aged ; Obstructive lung disease ; Pathogenesis ; Patients ; Pneumology/Respiratory System ; Proteins ; Pulmonary Disease, Chronic Obstructive - blood ; Pulmonary Disease, Chronic Obstructive - diagnosis ; Pulmonary Disease, Chronic Obstructive - physiopathology ; Receptors, Urokinase Plasminogen Activator - blood ; Respiratory function ; Severity of Illness Index ; Stiffness ; U-Plasminogen activator ; Up-Regulation ; Urokinase ; Vascular Stiffness ; Vital Capacity</subject><ispartof>Lung, 2019-04, Vol.197 (2), p.189-197</ispartof><rights>The Author(s) 2019</rights><rights>COPYRIGHT 2019 Springer</rights><rights>Lung is a copyright of Springer, (2019).
