Abstract
ROS play an essential physiological roles in the cellular homoeostasis and cell signaling under normal circumstances. The overexpression of ROS was involved in the pathological events of several diseases, including cardiovascular, because they cause damage to many cell structures.This study aims to evaluate the levels of inflammatory biomarkers, [interleukin-6 (IL-6) and interleukin-1beta (IL-1β)] in stable angina patients and their relationship with oxidative stress. The current study is a case-control one performed on 88 patients with stable angina and 44 people as a control group attending the Nasiriyah Heart Center from August 2023 to March 2024. All cases were diagnosed by cardiologists and confirmed by laboratory investigations. Blood samples (10 ml) were collected from patients. Serum was isolated after centrifugation and stored at -20°C. Serum CK-MB, MYO and Trop I were determined by electro-chemiluminescence immunoassay. While, the ELISA was employed to assess the levels of human IL-6, human IL-1 β, SOD, (GSH-Px/ GPX), total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL, VLDL and HDL, using the kits from Solarbio, China. The patients with stable angina didn’t show significant variation in the serum level of troponin I and CK-MB in comparison with control, while serum myoglobin level was significantly increased in patients with stable angina compared to control. Although the level of total cholesterol was insignificantly increased, but the levels of triglyceride (TG), VLDL-C and LDL-C were significantly increased, while the serum level of HDL-C was significantly declined in comparison with control. The serum levels IL-6 and IL-1β, in addition to activities of SOD and GPx were increased significantly in patients of angina compared to control. We could conclude that IL-1β, IL-6, SOD and GPx are increased in stable angina. Inflammatory events and oxidative stress could play an important roles in initiation of atherosclerosis and subsequent angina.
