In coronary artery disease (CAD) the adipocytokine content in the heart fat depot is altered, but it has not been established whether these changes are associated with the degree of atherosclerotic damage to the coronary artery (CA). Were examined 84 patients with CAD, and according to the degree of atherosclerotic state based on the SYNTAX Score scale, were divided: 39 moderate (≤22 points), 20 severe (23-31 points) and 25 extremely severe (≥32 points). Biopsies of subcutaneous (SAT), epicardial (EAT) and perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) were obtained during elective coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). The expression of adipocytokine was determined using real-time PCR. The concentration of the studied adipocytokines in adipocyte culture medium was measured by ELISA. Statistical analysis was performed using logistic regression analysis. In the adipocytes of the cardiac depot of patients with CAD, an increase in the expression and secretion of leptin and IL-6 and a decrease in adiponectin, with a maximum manifestation in severe and extremely severe CA lesions, was observed. EAT adipocytes were characterized by minimal expression of the adiponectin gene maximal gene expression leptin and IL-6 compared to SAT and PVAT adipocytes.
