Endothelial Progenitor Cell Dysfunction as a Biomarker of Cardiovascular Risk in Obese Patients
نویسنده
چکیده
Obesity is common endocrine disorders that is characterized an increased prevalence worldwide for last decades. Based on the Adult Treatment Panel-III criteria subjects with established obesity and co-existing other metabolic abnormalities including dyslipidemia, insulin resistance (IR), increased fasting glucose and impaired glucose tolerance, are referred metabolically non-healthy, whereas obese individuals without these abnormalities might be defined as metabolically healthy. However, the risk stratification in both obesity phenotype patients is not accurately determined. Formerly endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) were found a player in target organ damage at the different stages of obese. Probably, EPCs’ dysfunction defined as lowered number and / or weak function of EPCs as a biomarker of altered endothelial function might be a predictor of cardiovascular (CV) risk in obese patients The aim of the short commentary is to summarize our knowledge regarding the role of endothelial progenitor cell dysfunction in prognostication of CV events in patients with established obesity.

Progenitor Endothelial Cell Dysfunction in Obese Patients: Possibilities for Cardiovascular Risk Prediction
Obesity is recognized a leading factor contributing in diabetes and cardiovascular (CV) disease development worldwide. Among obese individuals at least two phenotypes are determined, i.e. metabolically healthy obese and metabolically non-healthy obese. Subjects with one or other phenotype appear to be distinguished in CV risk and diabetes. Although lack of strong definition of metabolically hea...

متن کاملThe Effect of Combining Resistance Training and Endothelial Progenitor Cell Injection on the Expression of Angiogenic Factors In Diabetic Male Rats Induced By Stz
Background: Angiogenesis disorders are known mechanisms of diabetes. With the aim of reducing angiogenesis disorders, resistance training and its combination with endothelial progenitor cell injection are new strategies. Therefore, the present study was performed to determine the effect of resistance training with endothelial progenitor cell injection on the expression of angiogenic factors in ...

Abstract Background and Objectives Dysfunction of endothelial cells is associated with the development of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease. Adult endothelial progenitor cells are derived from hematopoietic stem cells capable of forming new blood vessels through a process of angiogenesis. This study was to investigate the effect of resistance training on HIF-1α gene expression and rec...
