dc.description.abstract | Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is an inflammatory state associated with high coronary disease risk. Inflammation and adaptive immunity modulate atherosclerosis and plaque instability. We examined early changes in anti-oxidized low-density lipoprotein (LDL) (anti-oxLDL) autoantibodies (Abs) in patients with MetS after an acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Patients of both genders (n=116) with MetS were prospectively included after an acute myocardial infarction (MI) or hospitalization due to unstable angina. Anti-oxLDL Abs (IgG class) were assayed at baseline, three and six weeks after ACS. the severity of coronary disease was evaluated by the Gensini score. We observed a decrease in anti-oxLDL Abs titers (p<0.002 vs. baseline), mainly in males (p=0.01), in those under 65 y (p=0.03), and in subjects with Gensini score above median (p=0.04). in conclusion, early decrease in circulating anti-oxLDL Abs is associated with coronary disease severity among subjects with MetS. | en |
