Hsp 70, IgE, MMP-9, creatine phosphokinase-MB (CPK-MB), and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels were measured in normal subjects (n = 20), and in patients with chronic stable angina pectoris who were referred for elective CABG, before and after performing CABG-surgery (n = 20). Compared with normal subjects, increased Hsp 70 and IgE levels, unchanged MMP-9 level, and activities of CPK-MB and LDH were found in the pre-operative patient group. Hsp 70 and IgE levels in the post-operative period were significantly reduced when compared to pre-operative period. Hsp 70 and IgE might be used as markers for detection of early minor myocardial damage, and coronary insufficiency with less overt damage than myocardial infarction, as significant changes in their levels appear before occurrence of in any changes in the levels of MMP-9, CPK-MB and LDH. Besides, Hsp 70, and IgE returning to the normal levels after CABG surgery, suggest that they could be helpful to evaluate the effect of CABG surgery.展开更多
