Abstract

Aims: There is evidence of anti-inflammatory qualities associated with a soluble receptor for advanced glycation end products (sRAGE). We aimed to evaluate whether serum sRAGE levels of patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) could serve as a biomarker by utilizing several clinical and laboratory models of disease activity for these individuals.
Methods: This case-control study included 77 ulcerative colitis (UC) patients (51 males and 26 females), 49 Crohn’s disease (CD) patients (33 males and 16 females) and 54 healthy controls (38 males and 16 females). In UC, the UC Mayo Clinical Scoring system (MCS) was used for the clinical and endoscopic features. The histological activity index (HAI) of UC patients was determined by Truelove and Richards method. The Crohn's disease activity index (CDAI) was utilized for CD patients.
Results: In comparison to the control group, the median sRAGE concentrations in UC patients were significantly lower. [911.17 ng/L (322.91-1682.19 vs 1420.96 ng/L (816.68-2320.08), respectively, p=0.008)]. The patients with CD did not significantly differ from the other groups. The MCS and HAI values of UC patients negatively correlated to the serum sRAGE values (rho=-0,610, p<0.001 vs rho=-0,742 respectively, p<0.001). CD patients in remission had higher sRAGE values than patients having active disease [1720.42 ng/L (1005.68-2414.41) vs. 923.36 ng/L (601.61-1361.22 respectively, p=0.002]. CD patients under treatment had higher sRAGE values than patients without any treatment [1361.22 ng/L (821.26-1944.2) vs. 879.38 ng/L (601.61-1239.41) respectively, p=0.033]
Conclusion: Serum sRAGE might be an auxiliary biomarker for the clinical and laboratory traits of UC.

Abstract

Giriş: Serum ileri glikasyon son ürünleri reseptörlerinin (sRAGE) anti-inflamatuar özellik
gösterdikleri bilinmektedir.
Amaçlar: Çalışmamızda inflamatuvar barsak hastalığı (İBH) vakalarında, serum sRAGE düzeylerinin
bu hastalarda farklı klinik ve laboratuvar hastalık aktivite modelleri ile ilişkili bir biyobelirteç olup
olamayacağını araştırdık.
Yöntemler: Bu vaka kontrol çalışmasına 77 ülseratif kolit (ÜK) hastası (51 erkek ve 26 kadın), 49
Crohn hastalığı (CH) vakası (33 erkek ve 16 kadın) ile 54 sağlıklı kontrol (38 erkek ve 16 kadın) dahil
edilmiştir. ÜK’de klinik ve endoskopik aktivite değerendirmesi için Mayo Klinik Skorlama (MKS)
sistemi kullanıldı. UK hastalarının histolojik aktivite indeksi (HAİ) Truelove ve Richards yöntemi ile
belirlendi. CH klinik aktivitesi için Crohn hastalığı aktivite indeksi (CHAİ) kullanıldı.
Bulgular: Medyan sRAGE düzeyleri ÜK hastalarında kontrol grubuna göre düşük bulundu [911.17
ng/L (322.91-1682.19 ve 1420.96 ng/L (816.68-2320.08), sırasıyla, p=0.008)]. CH'li vakalar ile diğer
gruplar arasında anlamlı fark yoktu. ÜK hastalarının MKS ve HAİ değerleri ile serum sRAGE
konsantrasyonları arasında negatif korelasyon saptandı (rho=-0,610, p<0.001 ve rho=-0,742 sırasıyla,
p<0.001). Klinik olarak remisyondaki CH vakaları, aktif hastalığı olanlardan daha yüksek sRAGE
değerlerine sahipti [1720.42 ng/L (1005.68-2414.41) ve 923.36 ng/L (601.61-1361.22) sırasıyla,
p=0.002]. Tedavi altındaki CH vakalarının sRAGE değerleri, herhangi bir tedavi almayanlardan daha
yüksekti [1361.22 ng/L (821.26-1944.2) ve 879.38 ng/L (601.61-1239.41) sırasıyla, p=0.033].
Sonuç: Serum sRAGE, ÜK 'in klinik ve laboratuvar özelliklerinin tespiti için yardımcı bir biyobelirteç
olabilir.
