Indicators of cytokine markers in patients with cardiovascular diseases

Abstract

A study of interleukin-1β, interleukin-10, and CD40 ligand (CD40L) parameters in patients with arterial hypertension (AH), coronary heart disease (CHD), including cardiac arrhythmias (CA), was carried out. The study included 90 patients, divided into 3 groups (AH, CHD, CHD + CA). The results of the study demonstrated the possible involvement of an inflammatory cytokine, interleukin-1, in the development of AH, the level of which in our study significantly increased with the addition of such cardiovascular complications as heart failure (HF), CHD, including CHD with CA.
