Abstract

Ischemic health disease is a major health and a modern epidemic which is increasing in India. Dyslipidemia is a major risk factor for atherosclerosis. Serum adenosine deaminase activity is associated with coronary artery disease.The present work was done to understand the relation of serum adenosine deaminase activity with dyslipidemia in ischaemic heart disease.This cross-sectional study comprised 200 subjects; healthy and myocardial infarction. Serum ADA and lipids were estimated. Obtained data was statistically analysed.Increase in serum ADA activity correlating with dyslipidemia was found in Myocardial infarction subjects.Increased ADA has role in LDL oxidation, dyslipidemia, foam cell transformation etc. leading to atherosclerosis and ischemic heart disease. Adenosine deaminase has a crucial role in the evolution of ischemic heart disease through dyslipidemia and coronary artery disease.
