ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the clinical value of the combined detection of manganese superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD)genetic polymorphism and lipoprotein phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2)in the early diagnosis of coronary heart disease (CHD).Methods 92 cases of coronary heart disease patients and 78 cases of healthy control group were selected.The activ-ity of Lp-PLA2,the activity of Mn-SOD and genotype of Mn-SOD 9 Ala/Val genetic polymorphism were detected in the ser-um of each group via the use of colorimetry,continuous monitoring technique and gene-sequencing method respectively and then the correlation of serum Mn-SOD,Lp-PLA2 and Mn-SOD genetic polymorphism with CHD were analyzed.Results The Lp-PLA2 activity in serum of CHD groups with Mn-SOD 9 VV genotype was statistically significantly higher than that of patients with the AV+AA genotype (P<0.01).The serum Mn-SOD activity in patients with VV genotype was signifi-cantly lower than that of those with AV+AA genotype (P<0.01).Conclusion Combined detection of Mn-SOD 9 Ala/Val genetic polymorphism and Lp-PLA2 activityin the serum can provide an important foundation for the diagnosis and predic-tion of coronary heart disease.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the relationship between the activity of superoxide dismutase (T-SOD)as well as its manganese superoxide dismutase isozyme (Mn-SOD),concentration levels of hypersensitive c-reactive protein(hs-CRP)and coronary heart disease.Methods The levels of serum T-SOD,Mn-SOD and hs-CRP were measured in 81 patients with coro-nary heart disease and 60 healthy controls,respectively.T-SOD was measured by colorimetricmethod and hs-CRP was meas-ured by latex enhanced immune turbidimetric assay.Results Compered with the control group,activity of T-SOD,Mn-SOD in CHD group were significantly decreased (t=9.41,6.34,all P<0.01).However,hs-CRP in CHD group were significantly increased to those in controls (t=3.09,P<0.05).The activity of T-SOD,Mn-SOD were negatively correlated with hs-CRP (P<0.01).Conclusion The variation of T-SOD,Mn-SOD activity and hs-CRP content were closely related to the occur-rence and development of CHD,they could be the impor tant indicators for riskfactors assessment of CHD.Moreover,con-joint analysis the correlation of T-SOD,Mn-SOD and hs-CRP has certain guiding significance for the clinical treatment and prognosis of coronary heart disease.
