Abstract
BACKGROUND
11-Dehydro-thromboxane B2 (11-dehydro-TXB2) is the final stable metabolite of thromboxane A2 (TXA2) and is involved in thrombus formation. Patients with membranous nephropathy (MN) are prone to thromboembolism events.
METHODS
Time-resolved fluorescence immunoassay (TRFIA) for 11-dehydro-TXB2 was established by indirect competitive method. The coated 11-dehydro-TXB2-BSA conjugate was used to bind the 11-dehydro-TXB2 antibody competitively to the 11-dehydro-TXB2 antigen in the samples, followed by Eu3+-labeled goat anti-mouse IgG antibody, to detect 11-dehydro-TXB2. This study measured 11-dehydro-TXB2 concentrations in serum samples from healthy individuals and patients with MN.
RESULTS
The linear range of TRFIA was 16.38-2000 pg/mL, the sensitivity was 4.70 pg/mL, the average coefficients of variation from intra-assay and inter-assay were 3.50% and 4.95%, respectively, and the recovery was 99.38%. The serum level of 11-dehydro-TXB2 in patients with MN was significantly higher than that in healthy subjects (P < 0.05). The serum 11-dehydro-TXB2 concentration detected by TRFIA was highly consistent with that by ELISA (ρ = 0.900).
DISCUSSION
This study successfully established a new highly sensitive method for the detection of 11-dehydro-TXB2 in serum. 11-Dehydro-TXB2 has great potential in evaluating the risk of thromboembolic events in patients with MN and is expected to be applied to other thromboembolic-related diseases.
