Value of serum soluble lectin-like oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor-1 (LOX-1) and LOX-1 mRNA in peripheral mononuclear cells in early diagnosis of acute coronary syndrome
Objective To assess the value of serum soluble lectin-like oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor-1 (LOX-1) levels and LOX-1 mRNA expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells in early diagnosis of acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Methods Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect the levels of plasma ox-LDL and LOX-1 in 95 patients with ACS,60 with stable angina pectoris (SAP) and 40 normal control subjects. The expression of LOX-1 mRNA in peripheral blood mononuclear cells was detected by RT...
