Atherosclerosis, the main factor in the development of coronary heart diseases (CHD), is an inflammatory response to endothelial layer damage in the arterial bed. We have analyzed the association between CHD and the polymorphic markers of genes that control the synthesis of proteins involved in the processes of adhesion and chemotaxis of immunocompetent cells: rs1024611 (-2518AG, CCL2 gene), rs1799864 (V64I, CCR2 gene), rs3732378 (T280M, CX3CR1 gene), rs1136743 (A70V, SAA1 gene), and rs1205 (2042CT, CRP gene) in 217 patients with CHD and 250 controls. Using the Monte Carlo method and Markov chains (APSampler), we revealed a combination of alleles/genotypes associated with both a reduced and increased risk of CHD. The most significant alleles/genotypes areSAA1*T/T+CRP*C+CX3CR1*G/A (Pperm = 0.0056, OR = 0.07 95%CI 0.009-0.55),SAA1*T+CRP*T+CCR2*G/A+CX3CR1*G (Pperm = 0.0063, OR = 14.58 95%CI 1.88-113.04), SAA1*T+CCR2*A+CCL2* G/G (Pperm = 0.0351, OR = 10.77 95%CI 1.35-85.74).

Ceruloplasmin (Cp) is one of the acute phase protein, in this review ,we studied the level of ceruloplasmin with copper (Cu) and iron in 90 patients with coronary heart diseas ( those patients are divided into three groups, whom are stable angina , unstable angina and myocardial infarction compared with 30 healthy volunteers) and the roles of them as diagnostic and prognostic tools.The diagnosis was attend by a clinical examination carried out by the consult medical staff in Ibn AL-Nafis hospital. The result: ceruloplasmin recorded a significantly(p

Background: Haptoglobin (Hp), an acute-phase protein, is known as a potential diagnostic biomarker in human diseases. Two alleles of Hp (Hp1 and Hp2) exist in humans allowing three phenotypes (Hp1-1, Hp2-1, and Hp2-2), which influence the biophysical and biological properties of Hp. Objective: This work aimed to investigate the variation of serum level and fucosylation change among Hp phenotypes in pa-tients with lung cancer compared to healthy donors. Method: 44 patients with lung cancer and 26 healthy blood donors who lived in the Northern-Thailand region were investi-gated by glycoproteomic procedure. Results: The phenotypic distribution of the Hp (Hp1-1:Hp2-1:Hp2-2) in healthy donors were 0.04:0.38:0.58, while the pa-tient group were 0.09:0.52:0.39. The Hp1 allele frequency of the patients with lung cancer (0.34) was higher than the healthy donor (0.23). Glycoprotein blotting technique represented that the level of serum Hp and its fucosylation were sig-nificantly higher among lung cancer patients compared to those of the healthy donors. However, a downward trend in the fucosylation level from Hp1-1 to Hp2-1, Hp2-2, was seen in the patient group, but varying in the serum Hp level. An N-linked glycan was enzymatically released from discrete Hp multimers of Hp2-1 and Hp2-2 samples. Analysis of glycan pro-filing by MALDI-TOF-MS showed that reduction of the fucosylated glycan was associated with the size of Hp multimers, resulting in the lower level of fucosylation in Hp2-1 and Hp2-2, respectively. Conclusion: Our finding demonstrates that the Hp phenotype is a dependent risk factor for lung cancer and should be incor-porated into further clinical and biochemical investigations of diseases, including lung cancer.
