Level of Adiponectin, Leptin and Selected Matrix Metalloproteinases in Female Overweight Patients with Primary Gonarthrosis
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to assess levels of adiponectin (ACRP-30) and leptin in serum and synovial fluid (SF) of overweight females with primary gonarthrosis (GOA) and to look for their correlations with clinical status and the level of biochemical OA biomarkers: matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) 1, MMP-9 and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase (TIMP-1). The studied group consisted of 39 overweight females undergoing primary total knee arthroplasty as a result of GOA. The stage of GOA was evaluated according to Knee Society Score (KSS), Ahlbäck and Kellgren–Lawrence (K-L) scores. Peripheral blood and SF were obtained. Levels of selected biomarkers were assessed using ELISA kits. The mean level of ACRP-30 in serum valued were 8393.80 ng/mL and in SF, 774.33 ng/mL, the mean concentration of leptin in serum was 32,040.74 pg/mL and in SF, 27,332.12 pg/mL. Levels of leptin in serum and SF correlated with body mass index (BMI), (p = 0.0005, and p = 0.0002, respectively). Levels of ACRP-30 in serum was correlated with clinical scores (Ahlbäck: p = 0.0214; K-L: p = 0.0146). ACRP-30 in SF correlated with ACRP-30 in serum (p = 0.0003), tended to negatively correlate with MMP-1 in serum (p = 0.0598) and positively correlate with pro-MMP-1 in SF (p = 0.0600). To conclude, this study confirms the correlations between concentrations of both, leptin and ACRP-30, comparing serum and SF. In overweight females, leptin levels increase with BMI and ACRP-30 serum level increase in more advanced GOA stages. Finally, leptin levels were correlated with TIMP-1 serum concentration, one of the biochemical markers of GOA.
