PDR and SKYD of Dyslipidemia's Characteristics From the Oxidative Stress Enhancement Caused by Inhibition of Serine Metabolic Pathway

Study on the Characteristics of Phlegm-Dampness Retention Syndrome and the Spleen and Kidney Yang Deficiency of Dyslipidemia From the Oxidative Stress Enhancement Caused by Inhibition of Serine Metabolic Pathway

Clinical epidemiological investigation and modern statistics will be used. Syndrome was quantified by TCM syndrome score scale. Metabonomics, proteomics, transcriptomics, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, xanthine oxidation method and thiobarbital method will be used to detect the relevant indicators in serum, urine and tongue coating, and "disease syndrome cell model" will be constructed to detect the relevant indicators. Objective to clarify the epigenetic basis, molecular biological regulation mechanism and core function characteristics of phgdh expression decline caused by PDR and SKYD of dyslipidemia, analyze the correlation between phgdh, serine metabolic pathway product concentration and oxidative stress level, and reveal the scientific connotation of the disease syndrome.

Inclusion Criteria:

1. inclusion criteria of dyslipidemia with SKYD and PDR. (1) subjects with dyslipidemia in accordance with the diagnostic standards and TCM syndrome diagnostic standards, (2) ranged in age from 20 to 80, (3) who signed the informed consent, and (4) without lipid-lowering medications.
2. inclusion criteria of NC. (1) healthy subjects, (2) ranged in age from 20 to 80, (3) who signed the informed consent.

Exclusion criteria:

Exclusion criteria of dyslipidemia with SKYD and PDR. The exclusion criteria were composed of four criteria and a patient was excluded if they fails on any of the criteria. Mentioned criteria were: (1) secondary dyslipidemia (causes of dyslipidemia include but not limited to hypothyroidism, nephrotic syndrome, chronic renal failure, liver diseases, diseases of the hematopoietic system, adrenal-corticosteroid or contraceptive-drug induced dyslipidemia); (2) aphasias, and patients had difficulties to speak or unable to extend tongue for tongue observation; (3) patients with psychosis or unable to answer questions properly; (4) patients with acute infectious diseases or in the acute disease states (such as acute myocardial infarction, acute cerebrovascular disease, etc.), as well as pregnant women.
