Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Hypercholesterolemia is a risk factor for the occurrence and development of atherosclerosis. Recent animal studies have found that increased serum cholesterol level is associated with peripheral Treg cell senescence, but clinical evidence is still lacking. The purpose of this study is to analyze the correlation between human peripheral Treg cell senescence and serum total cholesterol level using clinical blood samples, thus laying a foundation for the establishment of novel therapeutic strategies for atherosclerosis based on the regulation of Treg cell senescence.

    Arms and Interventions

    Arm Intervention/Treatment
    normal cholesterol level group

    Serum total cholesterol level of < 5.17 mmol/L

    hypercholesterolemia group

    Serum total cholesterol level of >= 5.17 mmol/L

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Treg cell senescence [After confirming the subject has signed the informed consent, and recorded the past medical history and medication (especially hypolipidemic drugs) in the past 3 months.]

      Treg cell senescence will be evaluated by the beta-galactosidase (SA-betagal) activity test
