PG - 77-9 AB - OBJECTIVE: To evaluate serum Monocyte Chemoattractant Protein-1 (MCP-1) as a biologic marker of cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV) in heart transplant recipients (HTR). DESIGN AND METHODS: Serum levels of MCP-1 were measured in 49 HTR with and without CAV. RESULTS: HTR exhibited significantly higher serum MCP-1 levels than controls. However, no difference was observed according to the existence of CAV. CONCLUSION: Serum MCP-1 levels do not constitute a marker of the CAV occurring after heart transplantation.
