SummaryBackground: Obesity is one of the most common modern health problems worldwide. Proinflammatory cells accumulate in the adipose tissue of the obese, and the presence of a low level chronic inflammation in obesity is associated with the emergence of a range of metabolic disorders in cluding cardiovascular disease, insulin resistance, type-2 diabetes, fatty-liver disease, and others. Neutrophils are early parti - cipants in inflammatory processes. After the appropriate stimu lation, these cells release reactive oxygen and nitrogen species, which leads to degranulation and secretion of myeloperoxidase and other enzymes. Myelo per oxidase and its reactive oxidants contribute to tissue damage during inflammatory processes in the human body. Methods: The study included 175 subjects who were, in com - pliance with the International Diabetes Federation criteria, divided into 3 groups: normal weight subjects (N=106), subjects with abdominal obesity (N=37) and the third group consisted of subjects with the metabolic syndrome (N=32). Results: By analyzing the myeloperoxidase enzyme activity (kU/L), and the levels of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein in the blood of all subjects, we detected their significantly higher activity and levels in subjects with the metabolic syndrome, as compared to normal weight subjects (p<0.001). Conclusion: Based on our results, we can conclude that the MPO activity in the serum progressively increases with obesity and the metabolic syndrome, which indicates that this prooxidant enzyme may play a role in the pathophysiological mechanisms of the obesity and the metabolic syndrome related complications.

BACKGROUND: The low inflammatory state that accompanies the Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) associates with the overexpression of oxidative stress. Ferritin and Transferrin serum are often used to measure iron status and their concentrations are altered in several metabolic conditions. We hypothesized that concentration of Ferritin and Transferrin serum increase in Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) and correlate with the inflammation and oxidative stress.METHODS: We studied 65 male MetS patients, aged 43.26±7.16 years. Iron metabolism was measured by concentration of Ferritin and Transferrin serums, while inflammatory and oxidative stress by high sensitivity C-reactive Protein (hsCRP) and F2-Isoprostane.RESULTS: Concentration of Ferritin 315.70±188.63 ng/L and Transferrin 2.36±0.31 g/L increased along with increasing components of MetS. Concentration of Ferritin serum had a positive correlation with hsCRP (r=0.220) and F2-Isoprostane (r=0.023).CONCLUSION: Serum concentration of Ferritin increased in the MetS and correlates with hsCRP and F2-Isoprostane.KEYWORDS: metabolic syndrome, ferritin, transferrin, hsCRP, F2-isoprostane

This Finnish population-based study, mean age 46 years, evaluates the association of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra), and adiponectin with the NCEP and IDF definitions of metabolic syndrome (MetS). Adiponectin levels were higher, hs-CRP and IL-1Ra levels lower in subjects without MetS compared to subjects with MetS. If MetS was present according to both IDF and NCEP criteria, BMI, waist, triglycerides, hs-CRP, and IL-1Ra were significantly higher compared to subjects who had MetS according to either only IDF or only NCEP criteria. The hs-CRP, IL-1Ra, and adiponectin linearly correlated with the number of the components of MetS according to both definitions. Decreased levels of adiponectin and increased levels of hs-CRP and IL-1Ra are tightly associated with the components of MetS. Individuals who had MetS according to both criteria had the most adverse changes in cardiovascular risk factors.
