Evaluation of the correlation between fetuin-B levels and essential hypertension: a cross-sectional study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Fetuin-B, a cytokine that regulates lipid metabolism, has recently been linked to cardiovascular diseases such as coronary heart disease. In this study, we discussed the relationship between fetuin-B and essential hypertension.

Method

A bioinformatics analysis of fetuin-B was performed. A total of 206 with essential hypertension and 180 age- and-sex-matched healthy subjects were enrolled. Plasma fetuin-B, endothelin 1 (ET-1), nitric oxide (NO), and adiponectin (ADI) levels were measured using ELISA kits.

Results

Bioinformatics analysis has revealed that fetuin-B plays an important role in pathways such as lipid metabolism. Compared with healthy subjects, serum fetuin-B levels in patients with essential hypertension were significantly increased. Correlation
