Brief Summary:
This study aims to investigate the correlation between serum copper levels and cardiac enzymes in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI).
Detailed Description:
Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is one of the most serious types of coronary artery disease (CAD). In CAD, coronary blood flow is drastically reduced or interrupted, causing severe myocardial ischemia or necrosis.
Cardiac troponin I (TNI), creatine kinase (CK), and creatine kinase MB (CK-MB) are the most commonly used biomarkers for AMI clinical diagnosis. Among them, cardiac troponin is a highly specific biomarker for the diagnosis of AMI. However, the sensitivity is not good in the first few AMI hours, and false-positive values may occur in severe heart failure, arrhythmia, and myocarditis.
Copper is vital in multiple enzymes necessary for antioxidant protection, such as Superoxide dismutases (SOD) and ceruloplasmin. SOD is an enzyme that changes superoxide radicals into hydrogen peroxide, whereas ceruloplasmin is an antioxidant protein that aids in eliminating free radicals.
