Relationship between High-Density Lipoprotein and C-reactive Protein in Patients with Atherosclerosis
Abstract Background and Objective: Atherosclerosis is an inflammatory disease mostly caused by oxidation of low density lipoproteins (LDLs) while High-density lipoproteins (HDLs) oppose atherosclerosis by inhibiting the oxidation of LDLs. Serum concentration of C- reactive protein (CRP) also increases as an acute phase protein in inflammatory conditions like atherosclerosis. We aimed to evalu...
متن کاملHigh and low dose atorvastatin effects on high sensivity C-reactive protein in patient with acute coronary syndrome
Introduction: The effect of statins in reducing the risk of acute cardiovascular events is not only due to their effect on serum cholesterol level but also from their anti-inflammatory effects, particularly those resulting from reducing of C - reactive protein (CRP), is important. Atorvastatin dose and duration of treatment display different effects. This study compared the effects of high and ...
متن کاملSynthesis and Direct Observation of Thermoresponsive DNA Copolymers
Single-molecule techniques allow for the direct observation of long-chain macromolecules, and these methods can provide a molecular understanding of chemically heterogeneous and stimuli-response polymers. In this work, we report the synthesis and direct observation of thermoresponsive DNA copolymers using single-molecule techniques. DNA-PNIPAM copolymers are synthesized using a two-step strateg...
متن کاملSerum Level of High Sensitive C-Reactive Protein in Normal and Preeclamptic Pregnancies
Background and Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the level of plasma high sensitive c-reactive protein (hs-CRP) in preeclampsia and to compare hs-CRP levels between normal pregnant women, mild preeclamptic, and severe preeclamptic women. Materials and Methods: Serum hs-CRP levels were inv...
متن کاملProblems with high-sensitivity C-reactive protein.
To the Editor: Last year, Ockene et al. (1) published a report in this journal that made the claim that high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) has a degree of measurement stability that is similar to that of total cholesterol and that this provides further evidence of the potential clinical utility of hs-CRP screening as a novel tool for vascular risk prediction. The key evidence that Ock...
