Markers of inflammation are strong predictors of subclinical and clinical atherosclerosis in women with hypertension
2008
Cardiovascular diseases in women still rises and remains their leading cause of death in most developed countries; yet we have less sex-specific data in women than in men as a result of lower enrollment in clinical trials and low rates of sex-specific reporting. The aim of our study was to evaluate in hypertensive postmenopausal women the potential predictive role of markers of inflammation, for example, fibrinogen and C-reactive protein (CRP), on subclinical and clinical atherosclerosis, beyond that of the other established cardiovascular risk factors. We studied 127 asymptomatic hypertensive postmenopausal women with different degrees of carotid intima–media thickness, as examined by the …

A Multiplex Panel of Plasma Markers of Immunity and Inflammation in Classical Kaposi Sarcoma
2014
Kaposi sarcoma (KS) risk is affected by perturbed immunity. Herein, we compared plasma from 15 human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)–negative classic KS cases to plasma from 29 matched controls, using a multiplex panel of immunity markers. Of 70 markers, CXCL10 (IP-10), sIL-1RII, sIL-2RA, and CCL3 (MIP-1A) were strongly and significantly associated with KS, after adjustment for age and smoking status. These and previous observations are consistent with a tumor-promoting role for these cytokines, particularly CXCL10, but the small sample size and case-control design preclude firm conclusions on KS risk or pathogenesis. Larger, well-designed prospective studies are needed to better assess the as…

Vazodilatācijas intensitātes un insulīna rezistences rādītāju saistība ar endoteliālo (dis)funkciju raksturojošo signālmolekulu koncentrācijām hronis…

ANOTĀCIJA Pētījuma mērķis ir noskaidrot smēķēšanas ierosināta iekaisuma un oksidatīvā stresa ietekmi uz insulīna rezistences un endotēlija disfunkcijas attīstību un to savstarpējo sakarību. Pētījumā piedalījās 128 dalībnieki (starp kuriem 52 personām konstatējām dislipidēmiju), kuriem tika noteiktas ar endotēlija funkcijām saistītu signālmolekulu seruma koncentrācijas, vazodilatācijas intensitāte ādas mikrocirkulācijā un insulīna rezistenci raksturojoši rādītāji. Rezultāti parādīja, ka smēķēšanas kumulatīvais efekts būtiski sekmē insulīna rezistences attīstību personām ar dislipidēmiju, bet smēķēšanas akūtais efekts caur iekaisuma signālmolekulām īslaicīgi samazina šūnu insulīna jutību neat…
