METHODS: Levels of serum sICAM-1 and CD18 on the surface of neutrophile were measured in 41 DR patients, they were classified in three subgroups according to the stage of retinopathy as determined by fund's ophthalmoscopy; 10 control subjects were also studied. sICAM-1 were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and CD18 by flow cytometry. RESULTS: The neutrophilic CD18 expression and serum sICAM-1 level were all significantly elevated in all diabetic subgroups compared to control subjects (P <0.01). The differences of CD18 and sICAM-1 among the diabetic subgroups were significant in CD18 but not in sICAM-1. The progression of retinopathy was associated with an increase both in CD18 and in sICAM-1 levels by simple correlation analysis (beta =0.74, P<0.001; beta =0.38, P<0.01, respectively). But stepwise multiple regression analysis revealed that only CD18 Was independent determinant of retinopathy (beta =1.04, P<0.01). CONCLUSION: Our results confirm the contribution of endothelial and neutrophilic activation in the development of DR as indicated by increased levels of CD18 and sICAM-1. However, a direct implication of CD18 and ICAM-1 in the progression of DR can be supported only in the CD18 but not ICAM-1. CD18 and ICAM-1 may play different role in the development of diabetic retinopathy.展开更多

Methods: The concen-tration of sICAM-1 in the serum of 91 patients with ACI was determined with ELISA and then the results were compared wlth those of 43 patients with cerebral hemorrhage and 30 healthy individuals. Results: In the 24th hour after infarction. the concentration of sICAMu-1 in the serum was significantly higher in patients with ACI than in patients with cerebral hemorrhage and normal controls (P< 0. 01). In the patients with ACI, the concentration exhibited an decreasing tendency in the period from the 24th hour to the 14th day andwas correlated with the focal size of cerebral infarction. During the first 14 days after infarction, the concen-tration was significantly higher in the patients with the complication of infection than in those without. Con-clusion: sICAM-1 is closely correlated with clinical manifestation of ACI.展开更多

Methods Peripheral venous blood samples were taken from 21 patients with AMI before and4,8,12,24,48,72h after thrombolytic treatment or direct percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA).Blood samples from 16 control subjects were drawn for one time. Serum concentration of ICAM-1 and E-selectinwas determined by double antibodies sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results Serum levels ofICAM-1 and E-selectin were higher in patients with AMI than those in controls. Sixteen patients with AMIand successful roperfusion therapy had signifcantly reduction in serum concentration of ICAM-1 and E-selectinat 24 and 48h, but had a peak at 4h. The remaining live patients who failed in mperfusion theropy didn’t show anysignificant changes in these values. Conclusion The serum concentration of ICAM-1 and E-selectin waselevated significantly in patients with AMI Successful reperfusion therapy can reduce the increased serumconcentration.展开更多
