ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
The aim of the study was to investigate whether heat shock protein (HSP)90α plasma concentrations were associated with disease activity in patients with Crohn's disease. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
This cross-sectional study included 53 patients who were newly diagnosed with Crohn's disease. Demographic data and disease distribution were recorded, and disease activity was rated using the Simple Endoscopic Score for Crohn's Disease (SES-CD) and the Harvey Bradshaw Index (HBI). Faecal calprotectin and plasma concentrations of CRP and HSP90α were measured.RESULTS:
The median SES-CD was 7, and the median HSP90α level was 17.2 ng/mL. The HSP90α level was significantly correlated with SES-CD, CRP, and faecal calprotectin, but not with HBI. Linear regression analysis revealed that HSP90α was significantly associated with SES-CD (r2 = 0.27, p < .001) and with CRP (r2 = 0.18, p = .002). HSP90α concentrations were significantly higher in the 10 patients with the highest SES-CD scores compared to the 10 patients with the lowest SES-CD scores.CONCLUSIONS:
Objective measures of disease activity and inflammation in Crohn's disease - SES-CD and CRP - were closely associated with HSP90α concentrations in plasma, suggesting that HSP90α may be a biomarker of Crohn's disease.Palavras-chave
