Method for determining onset risk of cardiovascular disease in subject, and method for determining vascular calcification in subject
Disclosed is a method of determining onset risk of cardiovascular disease in a subject, the method comprising: capturing, on a solid phase, an extracellular vesicle derived from a blood sample collected from the subject; and measuring alkaline phosphatase activity of the extracellular vesicle, a measured result of the alkaline phosphatase activity being directed for use as an index of the onset risk of cardiovascular disease in the subject.
1 . A method of determining onset risk of cardiovascular disease in a subject, the method comprising:
identifying a subject having or at risk of developing cardiovascular disease, wherein said subject is not a chronic renal failure patient or a dialysis patient, by performing the following steps (i) and (ii):
(i) capturing, on a solid phase, an extracellular vesicle derived from a blood sample collected from the subject; and
(ii) measuring alkaline phosphatase activity of the extracellular vesicle,
wherein a measured result of the alkaline phosphatase activity is an index of the onset risk of cardiovascular disease in the subject, wherein when the measured result of the alkaline phosphatase activity is equal to or higher than a predetermined threshold value, the subject is identified as having or at risk of developing cardiovascular disease; and
treating the identified subject by a treatment comprising antihypertensive therapy and/or a medicine suitable for treating cardiovascular disease.
2 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the blood sample is whole blood, plasma, or serum.
3 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the capturing comprises contacting the blood sample of the subject, the solid phase, and a capture antibody capable of capturing the extracellular vesicle to form a complex of the extracellular vesicle and the capture antibody on the solid phase.
4 . The method according to claim 3 , wherein the capture antibody is at least one selected from the group consisting of anti-CD9 antibody, anti-CD81 antibody, anti-CD63 antibody, anti-Annexin VI antibody, and anti-Pit1 antibody.
5 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the measuring comprises contacting a luminescent substrate with alkaline phosphatase of the extracellular vesicle captured on the solid phase, and detecting a resultant chemiluminescent signal.
6 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the cardiovascular disease is at least one selected from the group consisting of ischemic heart disease, ischemic brain disease, and ischemic intestinal disorder.
7 . A method for determining vascular calcification in a subject, the method comprising:
identifying a subject having vascular calcification, wherein said subject is not a chronic renal failure patient or a dialysis patient, by performing the steps (i) and (ii):
(i) capturing, on a solid phase, an extracellular vesicle derived from a blood sample collected from the subject; and
(ii) measuring alkaline phosphatase activity of the extracellular vesicle,
wherein a measured result of the alkaline phosphatase activity is an index of vascular calcification in the subject, wherein when the measured result is equal to or higher than a predetermined threshold value, the subject is identified as having vascular calcification; and
treating the identified subject having vascular calcification by a treatment comprising antihypertensive therapy and/or medicine suitable for treating vascular calcification.
8 . The method according to claim 7 , wherein the blood sample is whole blood, plasma, or serum.
9 . The method according to claim 7 , wherein the capturing comprises contacting the blood sample of the subject, the solid phase, and a capture antibody capable of capturing the extracellular vesicle to form a complex of the extracellular vesicle and the capture antibody on the solid phase.
10 . The method according to claim 9 , wherein the capture antibody is at least one selected from the group consisting of anti-CD9 antibody, anti-CD81 antibody, anti-CD63 antibody, anti-Annexin VI antibody, and anti-Pit1 antibody.
11 . The method according to claim 7 , wherein the measuring comprises contacting a luminescent substrate with alkaline phosphatase of the extracellular vesicle captured on the solid phase, and detecting a resultant chemiluminescent signal.
12 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the treatment comprises administering to said subject one or more of a phosphorus adsorbent, a cholesterol treating agent, a thrombolytic agent, an antithrombotic agent, and antiplatelet agent, and a vasodilator.
13 . The method according to claim 7 , wherein the treatment comprises administering to said subject one or more of a phosphorus adsorbent, a cholesterol treating agent, a thrombolytic agent, an antithrombotic agent, and antiplatelet agent, and a vasodilator.
