ObjectiveTo investigate the relationship between blood estrogen,lipoproteins and endothelin-1(ET-1) in post-menopausal women with acute coronary syndrome(ACS).Methods116 normal post-menopausal women were divided into ACS group(62 cases) and non-ACS group(54 cases) according to the result of coronary arteriongraphy.The levels of blood estrogen,lipoproteins and ET-1 were detected before coronary angiography and then were compared between the two groups.Results(1)Compared to the non-ACS group,ACS group has a higher level of total cholesterol(TC),triglyceride(TG) and low-density lipoprotein(LDL) and lower levels of high-density lipoprotein(HDL) and apolipoprotein B(ApoB),the differences are significant(P<0.05).The level of Apolipoprotein A(ApoA) has no significant difference between the two groups.(2)Compared to non-ACS group,ACS group has a lower level of estradiol(E2) and progesterone(P) and a higher levels of ET-1,the differences are significant(P<0.05).(3) Pearson correlation analysis showed negative correlations between E2 and TG, TC and LDL(r=-0.47,-0.62,-0.36),Positive correlation existed between E2 and HDL(r=0.41), P and ApoB (r=-0.55),P and ApoA(r=0.32).(4)Both E2 and P were negatively correlated with ET-1(r=0.36、0.38, P<0.05).ConclusionsDecline of Estrogens in post-menopausal women can lead to lipid metabolic disturbance and endothelial functional impairment,which have a close relationship with the alteration of pathophysiology of acute coronary syndrome.
