To measure serum concentrations of elastin-derived peptides (S-EDP) in patients with aneurysmal, occlusive and ulcerative manifestations of atherosclerotic disease.
S-EDP concentrations were measured by a competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in 10 patients with infrarenal aneurysms 5cm in diameter (AAA), 10 patients with distal aortic occlusive disease (AOD), 10 patients with symptomatic carotid stenosis (>or=70%) and plaque ulceration (SCS) and a control group of 10 patients with no similar specific manifestations of atherosclerotic disease (NAM).
S-EDP concentrations (median, range) were significantly higher in patients with AAA (42ng/ml, 35-52, p<0.001) and SCS (49ng/ml, 37-60, p<0.001) but not AOD (28ng/ml, 22-38, p=0.240) compared to NAM (26ng/ml, 19-36) patients.
Increased concentrations of S-EDP were associated with aneurysmal and ulcerative, but not occlusive, manifestations of atherosclerosis.
测定患有动脉粥样硬化疾病的动脉瘤、闭塞性和溃疡性表现患者的血清弹性蛋白衍生肽(S-EDP)浓度。
采用竞争性酶联免疫吸附测定法,对10例直径5cm的肾下腹主动脉瘤(AAA)患者、10例远端主动脉闭塞性疾病(AOD)患者、10例有症状的颈动脉狭窄(≥70%)且斑块溃疡(SCS)患者以及10例无动脉粥样硬化疾病类似特定表现(NAM)的对照组患者进行S-EDP浓度测定。
与NAM(26ng/ml,19 - 36)患者相比,AAA患者(42ng/ml,35 - 52,p<0.001)和SCS患者(49ng/ml,37 - 60,p<0.001)的S-EDP浓度(中位数,范围)显著更高,但AOD患者(28ng/ml,22 - 38,p = 0.240)并非如此。
S-EDP浓度升高与动脉粥样硬化的动脉瘤和溃疡性表现相关,但与闭塞性表现无关。
