Parkinsonism Relat Disord. 2005 Jan;11(1):39-43. doi: 10.1016/j.parkreldis.2004.07.002.
We evaluated S100B protein and neuron-specific enolase (NSE) serum levels in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients and their correlation with the severity of disease. The levels of S100B (P=0.16) and NSE (P=0.39) between PD and controls were similar. However, S100B levels correlated positively with the Hoehn and Yahr scale (r=0.368; P=0.02) and negatively with the Activities of Daily Living (ADL) scale (r=-0.431; P=0.006). Therefore, S100B and NSE may not have a diagnostic role in PD, but S100B may have a potential role as a marker of disease progression. The study of S100B may also contribute to elucidate the controversial role of glial cells in PD.
我们评估了帕金森病(PD)患者血清中S100B蛋白和神经元特异性烯醇化酶(NSE)水平及其与疾病严重程度的相关性。PD患者与对照组之间的S100B水平(P = 0.16)和NSE水平(P = 0.39)相似。然而,S100B水平与Hoehn和Yahr分级呈正相关(r = 0.368;P = 0.02),与日常生活活动(ADL)量表呈负相关(r = -0.431;P = 0.006)。因此,S100B和NSE可能在PD中不具有诊断作用,但S100B可能作为疾病进展的标志物具有潜在作用。对S100B的研究也可能有助于阐明神经胶质细胞在PD中存在争议的作用。
