Serum calprotectin in Behcet's disease

Abstract

Objective: to assess the level of serum calprotectin (CLP) in Behcet's disease (BD).

Material and methods. The study included 90 patients with BD (35 women and 55 men) and 30 healthy controls (22 women and 8 men). The mean age of the BD patients was 32 [26; 37] years, that of the control subjects was 30 [25; 37] years. Serum CLP levels were measured with an enzyme immunoassay using a reagent kit from Bulhmann Laboratories AG (Switzerland). Results and discussion. CLP levels were statistically significantly higher in patients with BD compared to healthy controls (median 4.08 [2.81; 7.25] vs. 2.86 [2.15; 3.92] μg/ml; p=0.003). Elevated serum CLP levels were found in 23 (26%) of the 90 patients with BD. Patients with high CLP levels were more likely to have active uveitis (odds ratio, OR 4.741; p=0.011), pustulosis (OR 3.41; p=0.044), arthritis (OR 13.89; p=0.014) and high BD activity (OR 3.195; p=0.029). A direct correlation was found between CLP level and BDCAF activity index (rs=0.415, p<0.0001), CRP (rs=0.466, p <0.0001) and ESR (rs=0.357, p=0.001).

Conclusion. Serum CLP levels are elevated in patients with BD and are associated with high disease activity, active uveitis, pustulosis and arthritis.
