Article Abstract
Background: The primary aim of this study is to explore the relationship between serum levels of LOX-1, hs-cTnT, and NGAL, and renal function in patients with CKD, as well as to evaluate their diagnostic value for early detection and monitoring of disease progression in CKD patients.
Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on 108 patients with chronic kidney disease admitted to our hospital from January 2023 to December 2023. The patients were divided into the mild renal insufficiency group (51 cases) and the severe renal insufficiency group (57 cases). The differences in serum levels of LOX-1, hs-cTnT, and NGAL between the two groups were compared, and Pearson correlation analysis was used to explore the relationship between the three levels and renal function. ROC analysis was used to evaluate the predictive value of the three markers for the diagnosis of CKD.
Results: The levels of LOX-1, hs-cTnT, and NGAL in the mild renal insufficiency group were lower than those in the severe renal insufficiency group (P < 0.05). Correlation analysis showed that serum levels of LOX-1, hs-cTnT, and NGAL were positively correlated with the deterioration of renal function (P < 0.001), indicating a significant correlation between LOX-1, hs-cTnT, NGAL levels, and the deterioration of renal function. ROC analysis showed that the AUC of serum levels of LOX-1, hs-cTnT, and NGAL were 0.859, 0.882, and 0.841, indicating a significant predictive value for the diagnosis of chronic kidney disease.
Conclusion: Serum levels of LOX-1, hs-cTnT, NGAL, and related markers demonstrate a direct association with the extent of renal impairment, offering predictive capabilities for diagnosing CKD.

Elevated serum levels of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 in 71 patients 3 months after elective cardiac surgery suggest a potential link to persistent inflammation but not an increased propensity for perioperative cerebrovascular events.

Background: Monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1) plays a critical role in the transmigration of peripheral monocytes, a central mechanism underlying chronic inflammation. In this study, we investigate postoperative serum kinetics of MCP-1 as a potential contributor to postoperative neurocognitive decline, arteriosclerosis, and the development of organ failures.
Methods: Seventy-one patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery were included in this study.

-acetylcysteine (NAC), a well-known antioxidant and glutathione precursor, has been extensively studied for its free radical-scavenging properties, anti-inflammatory effects, and ability to enhance cellular redox balance. NAC has also been shown to mitigate oxidative damage in various disease models, yet its role in endothelial dysfunction remains underexplored. In this study, we evaluated the ability of NAC to counteract oxLDL-induced endothelial dysfunction in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs).

Recently, Apigenin has been widely studied for its anti-atherosclerosis properties, but its mechanism remains to be further elucidated.This study aims to evaluate the expression of LOX-1, Bcl-2 and Bax in apigenin-treated atherosclerotic rats and to explore whether they affect the expression of apoptotic genes.We analyzed the relationship between these three genes and atherosclerosis based on bioinformatics methods and conducted animal experiments on them.

Stroke poses a significant public health challenge, especially in China, where geographical disparities in incidence rates suggest environmental, genetic, and lifestyle influences on stroke risk. Traditional diagnostic methods, while effective, have limitations that can hinder timely treatment. This study investigated the clinical significance and diagnostic utility of the biomarkers C-reactive protein (CRP), osteopontin (OPN), osteoprotegerin (OPG), and lectin-like oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor 1 (LOX1) in relation to atherosclerosis and stroke, aiming to enhance early diagnosis and treatment strategies.

Aim: Our study aimed to investigate the relationship between oxidized low-density lipoprotein(ox-LDL), lectin-like ox-LDL receptor-1 (LOX-1), inducible nitric oxide synthase(iNOS), endothelin 1(ET-1), and asprosin levels with cardiovascular risk.
Method: The study is a case-control study. 177 patients (87 HT/90 controls) were included in the study.
