Methods:A total of 50 patients who were diagnosed with senile dementia in our hospital between August 2012 and June 2016 were selected as the senile dementia group, and 50 elderly patients who underwent physical examination in this hospital during the same period were selected as normal control group. The differences in serum levels of Hcy, pro-inflammatory cytokines, chemokines and oxidative stress indexes were compared between the two groups, and Pearson test was adopted to assess the correlation between serum Hcy level and illness. Results: Serum Hcy level of senile dementia group was higher than that of control group;serum pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1, IL-6, TNF-α and CRP levels were higher than those of control group;serum chemokines MCP-1, CCL2 and RANTES levels were higher than those of control group;serum oxidative stress indexes ROS, MDA and 4-HNE contents were higher than those of control group. Pearson test showed that the serum Hcy level in patients with senile dementia was positively correlated with the levels of pro-inflammatory factors, chemokines and oxidative stress indexes. Conclusions: The serum Hcy metabolism disorder in patients with senile dementia is closely related to the inflammatory response and oxidative stress response.展开更多
