“…Patients with stable CAD have moderately increased and in several studies even normal levels of soluble VCAM 1 in comparison with healthy controls. The highest level of VCAM 1 was noted in patients with acute myocardial infarction [35]. In another study, VCAM 1 was a useful marker for predicting future ischemic events in the 6 months after presentation with unstable angina pectoris or nonQ myocardial infarction [36].…”

“…17,18 Elevated blood levels of soluble intracellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1), soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (sVCAM-1) and E-selectin are associated with increased severity of atherosclerosis and risk for myocardial infarction. [19][20][21] Conversely, the adipocyte-derived molecule adiponectin, which appears to have both anti-inflammatory and antiatherogenic properties, has been shown to be lower in obese participants compared to lean controls. 22 This obesity-mediated reduction in adiponectin levels is also inversely related with the upregulation of the adhesion molecules ICAM-1, VCAM-1 and E-selectin.…”

“…13,22,[26][27][28] It is accentuated that the increase (even a little higher than the average values) of the markers of endothelial dysfunction in healthy individuals is connected to an elevated risk of developing atherosclerosis. 22,[29][30][31] which requires the determination of reliable discriminant values (cut-off) to evaluate …”
