Aim To study changes in markers for myocardial direct injury and dysfunction and endothelial dysfunction (ED) indexes in patients with indolent lymphoma during the antitumor treatment.Material and methods Current antitumor therapy for lymphoma is often associated with cardio- and vasculotoxicity, studying of which is a relevant scientific direction. Markers for myocardial direct injury and dysfunction and ED indexes were studied in patients with indolent lymphomas receiving polychemotherapy (PCT). The study included 77 patients with newly diagnosed indolent type lymphoma. The main group (n=52): mean age, 63.4±2.8 years, 15 (28.8 %) men who had received one course of PCT. The comparison group (n=25): mean age, 61.8±3.7 years, 8 (32 %) men who had not received PCT. Troponin I (TnI), high-sensitivity troponin I (hs-сTnI), heart-type fatty acid binding protein (h-FAВР), and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-prоBNP) were measured in patients of both groups. ED was evaluated by measuring the level of vascular cell adhesion molecule (VCAM) and by assessing the structure and function condition of small blood vessels using photoplethysmography. In both groups, the study parameters were determined at the start of the study (T1) and following the PCT course in the main group; if the PCT schedule included anthracycline antibiotics, the second point (T2) was assessed at 6 h following the drug administration.Results In both groups, the level of NT-proBNP was increased. This increase was significantly more pronounced in the comparison group (49.896±23.228 vs 20.877±8.534 pmol/l, respectively, p=0.011) whereas a tendency to its increase was observed after the PCT course. Before the start of the treatment, laboratory and instrumental signs of ED were noticed: the level of VCAM was 4951±1297 and 3225±757 ng/ml in the comparison group and the main group, respectively (р=0.246); reflection index was <1.8 in 23 (44.2%) patients of the main group and in 16 (64%) patients of the comparison group (р=0.098). During the PTC course, the endothelial function significantly improved; the level of VCAM decreased by 748 ng/ml (p=0.016), which was associated with significant decreases in erythrocyte sedimentation rate by 2.71 mm/h (р=0.027) and lactate dehydrogenase level by 62.38 U/l (р=0.026). Statistically significant decreases in other inflammatory markers (alpha-2-globulin, fibrinogen, C-reactive protein, neutrophil count) were not observed.Conclusion The level of NT-proBNP showed the highest sensitivity in assessing the cardiotoxic effect of PCT. The dynamics of VCAM level suggested a possible role of the disease itself in the development of ED in this patient group.
