Endothelial dysfunction in chronic renal failure:roles of oxidative stress and inflammatory reaction / 中国基层医药

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the roles of oxidative stress and inflammatory reaction in pathogenesis of endothelial dysfunction and atherosclerosis in patients with chronic renal failure(CRF).Methods 63 CRF patients were divided into non-dialysis group and hemodialysis group and 27 healthy volunteers were involved in the study.The levels of plasma malondialdehyde(MDA) were determined by thiobarbituric acid reaction,the activity of glutathione peroxidase(GSHPx) was mearsured by spectrophotometry,plasma nitric oxide(NO),high-sensitive C-reactive protein(hs-CRP),endothelin-1(ET-1) and tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-? were determined by sensitive enzyme-linked imunosorbent assay(ELISA).Results Levels of plasma MDA,hs-CRP,IL-6,TNF-?and ET-1 in CRF patients were higher than those in healthy controls,while NO,GSHPx were lower than those in healthy controls and hemodialysis aggravated these changes.Multivariate stepwise regressive analysis showed that ET-1,vWF and NO were related to MDA,TNF-?,hs-CRP,Cr(R2=0.502,0.631,0.476,respectively,P
