Research Abstract |
Inflammation, oxidative stress and vascular endothelial disorder related deeply the onset of vascular disorder and arteriosclerosis. They initiate production of various cytokines and platelet activation, thereby progress disease condition.We examined platelet activation and oxidative stress in acute Kawasaki disease. Oxidativestress and inflammatory markers in IVIG-responder group immediately decreased by IVIG treatment. On the other hand, antioxidant marker of IVIG-nonresponder group in pre-treatment was significantly lower than that of healthy control and IVIG-responder group, and oxidative stress and inflammatory markers maintained high value.Platelet was activated for more six months from the onset of Kawasaki disease. This study showed the evaluation of oxidative stress and activated platelets are useful and have clinical significance.
