title: [Immunological interactions in different forms of coronary heart disease].
abstract: The study included measurement of serum levels of IL-1beta, IL-2, IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-alpha, as well as the expression of mRNA IL-1beta, IL-2, IL-6, and TGfb1 in the vascular wall of patients with coronary atherosclerosis (angina, myocardial infarction). IL-1beta, IL-2, IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-alpha serum levels in patients with coronary atherosclerosis were found to significantly higher than those in healthy individuals (control group). Detection of IL-1beta, IL-2, IL-6, and TGFb1 in tissues revealed mRNA of the cytokines under study in radial artery wall. The main aortic cytokine was found to be IL-2 (7 samples out of 8); the main cytokines in peripheral arteries were IL-1beta and IL-6 (5 samples out of 8). The results show that elevation of IL-1beta, IL-2, and IL-8 in patients with coronary atherosclerosis demonstrates an immunoinflammatory nature of the disease; the detection of dissimilar cytokines in tissue samples reflects not only different degree of vessel involvement, but also a phase character of the process.
