YKL-40, also known as human cartilage glycoprotein 39, is a member of the "mammalian chitinase-like proteins", but lacking chitinase activity.Increased variations in serum concentrations are associated with inflammatory processes and several types cancer.In this study we evaluated YKL-40 levels healthy controls women benign malignant breast tumors.YKL-40 were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay -ELISA 32 patients.The effect various factors was analyzed using correlation regression...
Inflammatory processes are involved in the pathogenesis and development of chronic heart disease.The promising novel inflammatory biomarker YKL-40 is related to degree inflammation pathological tissue remodeling.The aim this study was determine serum levels patients with failure evaluate potential relationship ultrasonography findings.Forty-three individuals were enrolled -24 (10 females 14 males) failure, aged 70±11 (mean ± standard deviation) 16 healthy people as age-matched controls...
