OBJECTIVE To assess the association between secretory phospholipase A2 (sPLA2) activity, which encompasses several types of sPLA2, and cardiovascular disease (CAD) in healthy individuals. METHODS AND RESULTS We investigated this association in a nested case-control study among the 25,663 participants in EPIC-Norfolk cohort. Cases (n=991) were subjects in whom CAD developed during the 6 years of mean follow-up. Controls (n=1806) matched by age, sex, and enrollment time remained free of any CAD during follow-up. The risk of incident CAD was associated with increasing quartiles of sPLA2 activity (P<0.001). After adjustment for risk factors, C-reactive protein and sPLA2 type IIA concentration, the odds ratios of incident CAD in the second, third, and fourth quartiles of sPLA2 activity were 1.41, 1.33, and 1.56 (P=0.003), compared with the lowest quartile. sPLA2 activity and CRP were poorly correlated (r=0.15), and their combined values were more informative for incident risk of CAD than either biomarker alone. Subjects in the highest quartiles of sPLA2 activity and CRP had an adjusted odds ratio of 2.89 (95% confidence interval, 1.78 to 4.68; P<0.001) for CAD compared with those with the lowest quartiles of both markers. CONCLUSIONS Measurement of serum sPLA2 activity provides additive prognostic value to traditional risk factors and CRP levels, and identifies a subgroup of individuals at high risk for incident CAD. Measurement of sPLA2 type II concentration had little added prognostic utility.

PLA2G10 Gene Variants, sPLA2 Activity, and Coronary Heart Disease Risk.

BACKGROUND Observational studies report that secretory phospholipase A2 (sPLA2) activity is a marker for coronary heart disease (CHD) risk, and activity measures are thought to represent the composite activity of sPLA2-IIA, -V, and -X. The aim of this study was to use genetic variants of PLA2G10, encoding sPLA2-X, to investigate the contribution of sPLA2-X to the measure of sPLA2 activity and c...

Differential white blood cell count and incident heart failure in men and women in the EPIC-Norfolk study.

AIMS Markers of inflammation are associated with increased risk of heart failure, but data on differential white blood cell (WBC) count are lacking. We examined the prospective association between differential WBC count and incident heart failure events. METHODS AND RESULTS Hazard ratios (HRs) (per increase of 1000 cells/μL, 95% confidence interval) of total WBC count and individual component...

Lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 is an independent predictor of incident coronary heart disease in an apparently healthy older population: the Rancho Bernardo Study.

OBJECTIVES Lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) levels predict incident coronary heart disease (CHD) in adults without known CHD, independent of heart disease risk factors. We examined whether the independent association was apparent in older adults. BACKGROUND Serum levels of Lp-PLA2, an enzyme that hydrolyzes oxidized phospholipids to yield potentially proatherogenic particles,...
