Lysophosphatidic Acid in Ovarian Cancer Patients
Lysofosfatidová kyselina u pacientek s karcinomem ovaria
Cíl studie:
Zhodnocení rozdílu hladin lysofosfatidové kyseliny (LPA) a jejich podtypů v plazmě u pacientek s karcinomem ovaria a žen bez patologie na ovariích.
Typ studie:
Prospektivní epidemiologická studie.
Název a sídlo pracoviště:
Gynekologicko-porodnická klinika, LF UK a FN Hradec Králové.
Metodika:
Pomocí vysokoúčinné kapilární elektroforézy s nepřímou UV detekcí jsme stanovili hodnoty lysofosfatidové kyseliny a jejich podtypů v plazmě celkem u 103 pacientek - 60 pacientek s ovariálním karcinomem, 43 pacientek bez patologie na ovariích.
Výsledky:
Zjistili jsme statisticky významně vyšší hodnoty sumy lysofosfatidové kyseliny i všech podtypů u pacientek s ovariálním karcinomem (Σ LPA med 16,99 μmol/l, min 4,53 μmol/l, max 43,21 μmol/l) v porovnání s ženami bez patologie na obou ovariích (n=35) (Σ LPA med 2,92 μmol/l, min 0,94 μmol/l, max 22,93 μmol/l, p<0,001). Elevaci LPA jsme prokázali i v časných stadiích ovariálního karcinomu.
Závěr:
Stanovení lysofosfatidové kyseliny v plazmě umožní zefektivnění diagnostiky ovariálního karcinomu.

Overview
Objective:
To compare plasma lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) level in ovarian cancer patients and women without ovarian pathology.
Design:
Prospective study.
Setting:
Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, University Hospital, Hradec Králové.
Methods:
The method for LPA level analyze with its specification by capillary electrophoresis using indirect ultraviolet detection has been implementated. Since the beginning of this project venous blood samples from 103 patients (60 patients with ovarian cancer, 43 patients without ovarian pathology) have been obtained.
Results:
Plasma LPA levels were elevated in ovarian cancer patients (Σ LPA Med 19.9 μmol/l, Range 4.5 – 42.7 μmol/l). Patients without ovarian pathology (n=35) (Σ LPA Med 2.6 μmol/l, Range 0.9 – 22.9 μmol/l, P<0,001) had statistically significant lower plasma LPA level compared with ovarian cancer patients.
Conclusion:
Lysophosphatidic acid appears useful as diagnostic marker of ovarian cancer.
Key words:
