Abstract

Objective: Both soluble endothelial protein C receptor (sEPCR) and factor VIII (FVIII) seem to be poten- tial mediators in thrombotic and inflammatory states. The aim of the present study was to determine the relation between plasma sEPCR and FVIII levels in a group of healthy Turkish infants. Materials and Methods: The study population consisted of 50 healthy infants aged 6 months (Group 1, n=23) and 12 months (Group 2, n=27) having no acute or chronic infection and/or disease. sEPCR levels and FVIII levels were measured by ELISA and one stage factor assay method, respectively. Results: The sEPCR levels of the infants aged 6 months were found higher than those of the infants aged 12 months (p<0.001). There was a correlation between sEPCR and FVIII levels of the infants in Group 1 (6-month-old infants) (r=0.678, p<0.001). FVIII/sEPCR index was 0.73±0.3 and 1.0±0.5 in Group 1 and Group 2, respectively (p=0.027). A correlation between infant age and FVIII/sEPCR index was found (r=0.312, p=0.027). Conclusion: The FVIII/sEPCR index in healthy infants reflects the physiological condition of this popula- tion. The finding showing a positive relationship between sEPCR and FVIII levels suggests a possible interaction between these mediators in healthy infants aged six months.

Özet

Amaç: Çözünür endotelyal protein C reseptörü (sEPCR) ve faktör VIII (FVIII) trombotik ve inflamatuvar durumlarda potansiyel arabileşenler olarak görülmektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı; bir grup sağlıklı süt çocu- ğunda plazma sEPCR ve FVIII düzeyleri arasındaki ilişkiyi tanımlamaktır. Yöntem ve Gereçler: Çalışma grubunu herhangi bir akut ya da kronik hastalığı ve/veya enfeksiyonu olma- yan, sağlıklı 6 aylık (Grup 1, n=23) ve 12 aylık (Grup 2, n=27) çocuklar oluşturmaktadır. sEPCR düzeyle- ri ve FVIII düzeyleri sırasıyla; ELISA ve one stage factor metodu ile çalışılmıştır. Bulgular: Altı aylık çocukların sEPCR düzeyleri oniki aylık olanlardan daha yüksek bulunmuştur (p<0.001). Grup 1’i oluşturan 6 aylık çocuklarda sEPCR ve FVIII düzeyleri arasında bir korelasyon vardır (r=0.678, p<0.001). FVIII/sEPCR indeksi Grup 1’de 0.73±0.3 ve Grup 2’de 1.0±0.5 olarak bulunmuştur (p=0.027). Çocuğun yaşı ve FVIII/sEPCR indeksi arasında bir korelasyon saptanmıştır (r=0.312, p=0.027). Sonuç: Çalışmada sağlıklı çocuklarda kullanılan FVIII/sEPCR indeksi bu populasyonun fizyolojik durumunu yansıtmaktadır. Altı aylık çocuklarda sEPCR ile FVIII arasındaki pozitif ilişki bu yaş grubundaki çocuklarda bu mediatörler arasında muhtemel bir etkileşim olduğunu gösterebilir.
