RESUMO
Objective To investigate the relations between adiponectin(APN) and lipoprotein associated phospholipase A2 (LP‐PLA2) with the development and progress of essential hypertension .Methods 60 patients with essential hypertension were collect‐ed and divided into 3 groups of the hypertension grade 1 ,2 ,3 groups according to the levels of blood pressure ,20 cases in each group .Contemporaneous 20 healthy controls were selected .The peripheral venous blood samples were collected from the cubital vein and the serum levels of APN and LP‐PLA2 were measured by ELISE .The related biochemical indicators were simultaneously detected .Results The serum APN levels in the hypertension grade 1 ,2 ,3 groups were significantly lower than that in the control group ,moreover which in the hypertension grade 3 group was significantly lower than that in the hypertension grade 1 group(P<0 .05);on the contrary ,serum levels of LP‐PLA2 in the hypertension grade 1 ,2 ,3 groups were significantly higher than that in the healthy control group ,moreover which in the hypertension grade 3 group was obviously higher than that in the hypertension grade 1 group(P<0 .05);serum APN was significantly negatively correlated with LP‐PLA2(r= -0 .772 ,P<0 .05) .Conclusion Serum levels of APN and LP‐PLA2 are closely related with the development and progress of essential hypertension .
