PG - 1277-1283 LID - 10.1515/jpem-2016-0136 [doi] AB - BACKGROUND: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a chronic and multifactorial syndrome characterized by a low-grade chronic inflammation, and a major risk factor for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and cardiovascular disease (CVD). In our study, we aimed to investigate the serum levels of high sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), haptoglobin (Hp), alpha2-macroglobulin (alpha2-MG), platelet factor-4 (PF-4), fetuin-A, serum amyloid P (SAP) and alpha1-acid glycoprotein (AGP) in an adolescent population with MetS. METHODS: This study was performed in 43 (18 males, 25 females) MetS adolescents between the ages of 13 and 17 years (14.70+/-1.15) and 43 lean controls were matched for age and sex. The serum levels of Hp, alpha2-MG, PF-4, fetuin-A, SAP and AGP were measured by using a multi-ELISA technique. RESULTS: Serum Hp, fetuin-A (p<0.01) and PF-4, hs-CRP, SAP, AGP (p<0.001) values of the MetS subjects were significantly higher than those of the controls. No difference was found in serum alpha2-MG levels between the MetS and control groups (p=0.184). CONCLUSIONS: This finding suggests the possibility of using these markers in diagnosis of MetS in adolescents to prevent future complications.
