Abstract:
Objective To assess the roles of renalase and renal sympathetic nerve activity in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF). Methods Plasma renin activity (PRA), angiotensinⅠ (AngⅠ), angiotensin Ⅱ(AngⅡ),adrenaline (E), noradrenaline (NE) and renalase were determined in 60 patients with CHF (CHF group) and in 42 healthy cases (control group). Data were compared between patients with mild and serious CHF. Results PRA, E, NE and AngⅠincreased and renalase decreased in CHF group than those in control group. Compared with mild CHF, renalase and left ventricular ejection fraction decreased (P < 0.01, 0.034), while N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and PRA significantly increased (P<0.01). Linear correlation analysis showed that renalase was inversely correlated with Log NT-proBNP (r = -0.400, P = 0.002) and Log NE (r=-0.314, P = 0.014). Logistic regression analysis showed that NT-proBNP (OR = 6.963, 95%CI = 1.223 to 39.638), PRA (OR = 3.736, 95%CI = 1.031 to 13.540) and renalase (OR = 0.253, 95%CI = 0.069 to 0.927) were associated with increased NYHA classes. Conclusions PRA would increase while renalase would decrease in patients with CHF. PRA and renalase were correlated to the severity of CHF.
