ABSTRACT
Aim:
In the current study, serum levels of endocan in patients attended with ST-elevation myocardial infarction, as well as the possible correlation with apolipoprotein-A1 (APO-A1) and APO-B were investigated. Materials &methods:
In 80 men, endocan, cTnI, APO-A1, and APO-B levels were measured. Finally, the correlation of endocan with APO-A1, APO-B, and APO-B/ APO-A1 ratio was assessed.Results:
Significant changes in APO-A1, APO-B, endocan levels, and APO-B/APO-A1 ratio were found in acute myocardial infarction cases compared with the control arm (p < 0.05). In addition, our finding showed a significant correlation between APO-B and endocan levels, but not APO-A.Conclusion:
High endocan level is an independent indicator of endothelial dysfunction and ischemic cardiovascular conditions, which could be related to APO-B.
