Background: The aim of this study is to examine possible association between serum galectin-3 values and the presence of significant atherosclerotic epicardial artery disease in patients with chronic coronary syndrome.

Patients and Methods: Subjects with suspected coronary artery disease and indication for coronary angiography were included in study. Subject were divided in three groups: a) subject with indication for PCI, b) subject with indication for CABG and control group (without coronary artery disease). Galectin-3 value was measured by enzyme immunoassay (EIA) test.

Results: T-test and ANOVA variance analysis was performed for statistically analysis (SPSS program, version 17.0). The mean value of galectin-3 in the study group was statistically higher than in control group (19.98 ng/ml vs. 9.51 ng/ml, p<0.001). In subgroup analysis there was no statistically significant difference in the values ​​of galectin-3 between the PCI and CABG groups (18.84 ng/ml vs. 21.27 ng/ml (t=7.417, p<0.001).

Conclusion: Galectin-3 has shown potential to be reliable marker for assessment of significant coronary disease existence as well as a predictor of adverse cardiovascular events (1-3).
