| Research Abstract |
Working long hours increases cardiovascular diseases even in young workers. However, the mechanisms for this have not yet been elucidated. We analyzed biomarkers to clarify the pathobiochemical mechanisms involved in the development of cardiovascular diseases induced by working long hours in Japanese office workers. In office workers who worked over 240 hours a month (> 80 hours of overtime work a month), we measured the following: interleukin-6; matrix metalloproteinase-9; tumor necrosis factor-α; adiponectin; small dense low-density lipoprotein (LDL); malondialdehyde-modified LDL (MDA-LDL); total cholesterol; LDL cholesterol; high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; homocysteine; pentraxin 3; and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein. Of the workers, 77.4% had abnormally high MDA-LDL. The same markers were measured again when their working hours were shorter than 240 hours a month. With shorter working hours compared to working hours > 240 hours a month, the ratio of MDA-LDL to LDL significantly decreased. There were no significant changes in other biomarkers between the longer and shorter working hours. These findings suggest that working long hours might accelerate the formation of atherosclerotic lesions. Monitoring the ratio of MDA-LDL to total LDL might provide useful information for the healthcare of workers with long working hours. Lowering oxidized LDL might be of importance and beneficial in preventing cardiovascular events in office workers with long working hours.
