Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the relationship of the plasma levels of osteopontin(OPN),lipoprotein (a) [Lp (a)] and apolipoproteinA/apolipoproteinB (ApoB/ApoA1) ratio with atherosclerosis.Methods 120 elderly patients with atherosclerosis (observation group) and another 120 healthy elderly subjects (control group) from Health Check Department in Tianjin Third Center Hospital were enrolled from Mar.2014 to Nov.2015.The levels of plasma OPN,Lp(a) and ApoB / ApoA1 ratio were measured and their relationship with atherosclerosis was analyzed.Results In observation group versus control group,the levels of plasma OPN[(33.2±10.1) μg/L vs.(30.6± 9.1) μg/L],ApoB/ApoA1 ratio[(0.8±0.7) vs.(0.6±0.1)]and Lp(a)[(357.6±66.5) mg/L vs.(120.5±35.7) mg/L] were increased with statistically significant differences (t =8.91,8.43,6.01;P=0.021,0.035,0.041).The concentrations of plasma OPN,ApoB/ApoA1 ratio and Lp (a) were increased along with aggravation of artery lesion,with statistically significant differences (F =8.50,7.38,6.41;P=0.031,0.039,0.037).Conclusions The plasma levels of OPN,Lp(a) and ApoB/ ApoA1 ratio are increased in patients with atherosclerosis and increased along with the lesion aggravation.
