Study on change of hypoxia stress peptide and nitrogen monoxidum in peripheral blood from the entering mountain rapidly man and its significance / 国际检验医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the concentration changes of serum hypoxia stress peptide (HSP)and plasma nitrogen monoxidum(NO)in the entering mountain rapidly man and to explore the importance of HSP and NO in adaptation of man to altitude hypoxia.Methods The levels of serum HSP and plasma NO2-/NO3-were measured from 106 entering mountain rapidly men,105 altitude in habitant,105 altitude immigrant and 104 plain healthy controls,respectively by chromatometry and NO2-/NO3-reagent.Furthermore,the content of serum HSP was determined in 106 entering mountain rapidly men,respectively at the time of 24 h,48 h,76 h,l week and 1 month after entering mountain.Results The level of serum HSP was significantly higher in entering mountain rapidly men than in habitant,immigrant and plain controls(P＜0.05),while there was no statistical difference between in habitant,immigrant and plain controls(P＞0.05).At 24h after entering mountain rapidly,the level of serum HSP was significantly increased and reached the peak.At 48h and 76h,it was slightly decreased,but still maintained a high level.At 1 week and 1 month,it gradually and significantly went down,but was still significantly higher than that in plain controls.Similarly,the level of plasma NO2-/NO3-was significantly elevated in entering mountain rapidly man,compared with inhabitant,immigrant and plain controls(P＜0.05).It was lower in inhabitants and immigrants than plain controls,but the difference was not statistically significant(P＞0.05).Conclusion The present results demonstrated that the levels of serum HSP and plasma NO were significantly up-regulated in healthy adults after en tcring mountain rapidly in order to adapt to altitude stress,and restored gradually to the normal level as time went by.
