Association between monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 and blood pressure in smokers

Abstract: ObjectiveThe expression level of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) is increased in atherosclerotic regions, inducing monocyte migration to the blood vessel wall. Although the serum MCP-1 concentration is higher in patients with than without cardiovascular disease, the precise correlations between the serum MCP-1 concentration and factors associated with smoking and atherosclerosis are unknown.MethodsThe serum MCP-1 concentration was measured using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in 207 consecutiv… Show more

“…Serum levels of the oxidative stress marker MCP-1 were increased in our heavy smokers, which is in accordance with other reports [45,46]. Accumulation of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) can directly induce formation of osteoclasts from mononuclear cells [47,48] and also by upregulation of MCP-1, a strong inducer of osteoclast fusion and osteoclastogenesis [22,23,24].…”

“…Even after using medical treatment and lifestyle modifications, it is still hard to achieve the goal of reducing blood glucose to an optimal level 4 , 5 ) . In T2DM, atherosclerosis plays an important role in cardiovascular disease complications, and vascular inflammation due to hyperglycemia is one of the mechanisms of atherosclerosis 6 10 ) .…”

“…This is consistent with cross-sectional results showing a strong correlation between MCP-1 and BP in smokers. 36 Surprisingly, a significant increased hypertension risk associated with MCP-1 was seen among women with normal BMI (<25 kg/m 2 ; HR = 3.45) and diastolic BP (<80 mmHg; HR = 1.29) at baseline ( Supplemental Table 2 ). We anticipated that the pro-inflammatory nature of obesity would potentially work synergistically with pro-inflammatory biomarkers to increase hypertension risk, which was not observed in our present study.…”
