Research Abstract |
It is said that patients with severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) show higher mortality than controls because of a significant increase in cardiovascular diseases in the former. However, not all but some of the patients with severe OSA have poor prognosis. We hypothesized that the differences in mortality rate among the patients with severe OSA were due to the genetic polymorphism. We have got the blood from 306 patients with OSA and done the gene extraction from them. In addition, we found thatUrinary Lipocalin-type prostaglandin D synthase (L-PGDS) might be a moderately useful marker to identify patients with severe OSA. We also made a new instrument which could produce both intermittent and sustained hypoxic conditions for the target cells. From that instrument, we could find that the intermittent hypoxia induced TNF-α and sustained hypoxia induced hypoxia inducible factor-1.
