- W2072963128 abstract "Aim: The vasculopathic impact of homocysteine (HCy) is mediated through the generation of superoxide, a phenomenon augmented by copper (Cu2+). Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) also elicits oxidant stress. Since oxygen free radicals may play a role in both early and late vein graft failure, the blood levels of HCy and Cu2+ and related parameters, before and after surgery, were investigated in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG), both with (on pump) and without CPB (off pump). Methods: Blood samples were taken from 20 consecutive patients (10 on-pump and 10 off-pump) undergoing CABG, one day pre-operatively (D0) and one day (D1) and six days (D6) post-operatively. Plasma HCy, serum Cu2+, caeruloplasmin (CP) and vitamin B12 and red cell folate were then measured. Results: Pre-operative (D0) plasma concentrations of HCy were below the accepted risk factor value of 14 μmol/l. At D1 there was a reduction in all parameters in both groups, which is ascribable to hemodilution. However, in both on pump and off pump groups, HCy, Cu2+ and CP were all significantly increased at D6. Concentrations of red cell folate were not significantly altered and serum vitamin B12 was significantly increased at D6, indicating that the increase in HCy was not due to a reduction in these vitamins. When comparing on-pump to off pump, there were no significant differences between any parameter except for Cu2+ which was significantly greater in the on pump group compared to the off pump group at D6. Table 1. Circulating Parameters Following CABG (Means ± SEM; n = 10 ) *p < 0.05 vs Pre-Operative Levels and #p < 0.05 on Pump vs Off Pump HCy (μmol/l) Cu2+ (μmol/l) CP (g/l) Folate (mg/l) VitB12 (ng/l) On pump: D0 10.5 ± 1.3 13.9 ± 3.2 0.30 ± 0.05 388 ± 182 261 ± 75 Off pump: D0 9.8 ± 1.2 13.6 ± 3.3 0.35 ± 0.12 340 ± 78 240 ± 140 On pump: D1 9.2 ± 1.4 10.5 ± 3.2 0.23 ± 0.10 357 ± 168 170 ± 62 Off pump: D1 8.7 ± 1.3 13.2 ± 2.8 0.32 ± 0.10 351 ± 84 190 ± 89 On pump: D6 12.7 ± 1.2* 21.9 ± 2.5*# 0.40 ± 0.04* 394 ± 150 410 ± 160* Off pump: D6 11.1 ± 1.3* 19.0 ± 2.6* 0.40 ± 0.07* 331 ± 57 385 ± 169* Conclusions: Contrary to other reports, the pre-operative plasma concentrations of HCy in this study suggest that HCy is not a risk factor for coronary artery disease. However, following CABG, the significant increase in HCy and Cu2+ may be of pathological importance since Cu2+ augments the release of superoxide from HCy. The greater increase in serum Cu2+ in the on-pump group indicates that CPB may promote oxidant stress through elevation of this potent transition metal." @default.
