Özet
Aim: Prolidase is an enzyme, which plays a role in the formation of a new matrix, collagen metabolism and cell development. It is known that the most Important mechanism underlying in-stent restenosis is neointimal hyperplasia. Neointimal hyperplasia is associated with collagen synthesis and matrix proteins. The objective of our study was to reveal the relationship between serum prolidase levels and in-stent restenosis. Material and Methods: This study included a total of 70 patients who were identified to be at a moderate and high risk as a result of clinical or non-invasive tests in the cardiology and emergency clinics of the Abant Izzet Baysal University training and Research Hospital and who underwent angiography. In-stent restenosis was identified in 40 patients. In the remaining 30 patients, there was no angiographically determined critical lesion. Serum prolidase levels were measured in all patients. Results: The mean serum level of prolidase was found to be statistically significantly higher in the in-stent restenosis group compared to the restenosis-free group (p=0.02). The mean serum level of prolidase level was significantly higher in smokers compared to the non-smoker patients (p=0.04). It was observed that serum prolidase levels statistically significantly increased proportionally to the in-stent restenosis percentage (p=0.04). Discussion: The results of this study indicate that prolidase enzyme levels may enable timely and correct assessment of in-stent restenosis, and may contribute to the decision for changing the treatment or timing to increase the intensity of the treatment in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with coronary stenting.
