Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of cyclophilin A(CyPA)for chronic heart failure (CHF).Methods Eighty pateints,made a definite diagnosis as CHF,were classified 30 cases as A phase,29 cases as C phase,21 cases as D phase of them.30 healthy subjects were enrolled in this study.Serum CyP A was detcted by ELISA.NT-proBNP was detec-ted with Roche Cobas 6 000 automatic electrochemilu-minescence immunoassay system.Results The amounts of serum CyP A(x-±s,ng/ml)in healthy subjects and each group with CHF were 110.10±49.73,327.85±82.67,331.70±69.34 and 342.46±92.55.Using Oneway Anova,CyP A concentration of CHF was significantly higher than healthy controls (F=58.45,P0.05).Results of ROC curves showed the AUC (CyP A)was 0.97.The best cutoff value was 198.39 (ng/ml).The sensitivity was 91.30%,the specificity was 93.30%.The correlation analysis showed that CyP A and NT-proBNP were correlated (r=0.30,P<0.01). CyP A and NT-proBNP combined detections showed the sensitivity was 93.80% and the specificity was 100%.Conclusion The Cyp A levels in CHF group are significantly higher than the control group,suggesting that Cyp A may be a factor for CHF appearance.These results indicate that combined detections may helpful to early diagnosis of CHF.
