Correlation of serum cyclophilin A and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 levels with carotid atherosclerosis in patients with acute cerebral infarction

摘要

Objective:To study the correlation of serum cyclophilin A (CyPA) and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) levels with carotid atherosclerosis in patients with acute cerebral infarction.Methods: 106 patients with acute cerebral infarction who were hospitalized in our hospital between July 2011 and August 2015 were selected as observation group, and 50 cases of healthy persons who received physical examination in our hospital during the same period were selected as normal control group. The serum CyPA and MCP-1 contnets in two groups were determined. According to the median of CyPA and MCP-1 contents in observation group, they were divided into high CyPA group and low CyPA group as well as high MCP-1 group and low MCP-1 group, 53 cases in each group. Contents of lipid metabolism indexes and carotid atherosclerosis illness-related indicators were compared between acute cerebral infarction patients with different CyPA and MCP-1 contents.Results:Serum CyPA and MCP-1 contents in observation group were significantly higher than those in control group. Serum TC, LP(a) and LDL-C contents in high CyPA group and high MCP-1 group were higher than those in low CyPA group and low MCP-1 group while HDL-C contents were lower than those in low CyPA group and low MCP-1 group. Serum CysC, Hcy and UA contents in high CyPA group and high MCP-1 group were higher than those in low CyPA group and low MCP-1 group.Conclusion: Serum CyPA and MCP-1 contents in patients with acute cerebral infarction are higher than those in normal population, and the contents of CyPA and MCP-1 are positively correlated with the degree of carotid atherosclerosis.
