Implication

Soluble CAMs associate with smoking and metabolic risks in healthy adults; hypothesis-generating for endothelial inflammation, needs prospective validation.

Population

592 healthy white adults aged 18-82 years.

Outcome

Cross-sectional relationships between the concentrations of soluble adhesion molecules (sICAM-1, sVCAM-1, sPSEL and sESEL) and smoking behaviour, body composition, blood pressure, serum lipids and physical activitysurrogate

Concentrations of soluble cell adhesion molecules reflect the level of established cardiovascular disease risk factors in healthy adults, highlighting their potential role in inflammation-mediated atherosclerosis.
