ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the correlation of mimecan/osteoglycin withnuclear factor koppa B(NF-κB) and P53 in peripheral arterial disease (PAD) and PAD combined with type 2 diabetes in the elderly.Methods 120 patients with PAD and 60 healthy controls were enrolled in this study.PAD patients were divided into PAD group (n=60) and PAD combined with type 2 diabetes group (n =60) according to clinical diagnostic criteria.Patients in PAD group were divided into class Ⅰ (n=15),class Ⅱ (n=15),class Ⅲ (n=15) and class Ⅳ (n=15),and patients in PAD combined with type 2 diabetes group were divided to class Ⅰ (n=14),class Ⅱ (n=15),class Ⅲ (n=16) and class Ⅳ (n=15) according to Fontaine's classification.The levels of NF-κB,P53 and mimecan in peripheral blood were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).Results The levels of NF-κB,P53 and mimecan were significantly increased in PAD combined with type 2 diabetes group as compared with PAD and control groups [NF-κB..(32.8±5.3) mg/L vs.(19.8±4.2) mg/L,(26.3 ±4.8) mg/L; P53:(3.4±1.3) mg/Lvs.(2.5±1.1) mg/L,(1.4±0.8) mg/L; mimecan:(16.4 ±0.8) mg/L vs.(10.3±0.8) mg/L,(4.8±0.6) mg/L; all P＜0.05].There were significant differences in the levels of NF-κB,P53 and mimecan in class Ⅰ,class Ⅱ,class Ⅲ and class Ⅳ in PAD group [NF-κB:(20.3±3.1) mg/L,(24.5±3.4) mg/L,(28.2±4.6) mg/L and (34.2±5.3) mg/L; P53:(2.2 ±1.8) mg/L,(2.6±1.8) mg/L,(3.3±1.9) mg/L and (3.7±2.7) mg/L;mimecan (8.9±2.6) mg/L,(12.4±1.8) mg/L,(15.6±1.5) mg/L and (17.7±1.6) mg/L; all P ＜0.05].There were significant differences in the levels of NF-κB,P53 and mimecan in class Ⅰ,class Ⅱ,class Ⅲ and class Ⅳ in PAD group combined with type 2 diabetes group [NF-κB:(25.5±4.2) mg/L,(28.8±3.7) mg/L,(33.4±5.6) mg/L and (38.5±4.7) mg/L; P53:(2.5±1.1)mg/L,(2.9±1.0)mg/L,(3.7±1.2)mg/L and(4.6±1.3)mg/L; mimecan:(11.7±2.4)mg/L,(14.9± 1.8)mg/L,(17.4±2.5)mg/L and(20.7±2.8)mg/L; all P＜0.05].The levels of NF-κB,P53 and mimecan was increased with the aggravation of PAD (all P＜0.05).Conclusions The increased levels of NF-κB and P53 are correlated with the increase in mimecan level and Fontaine's classification.
