RESUMO

Background: In percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) era, more clinically valuable risk factors are still needed to determine the occurrence of cardiac rupture (CR). Therefore, we aimed to provide evidence for the early identification of CR in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Methods: A total of 22,016 consecutive patients with STEMI admitted to Cangzhou Central Hospital and Tianjin Chest Hospital from January 2013 to July 2021 were retrospectively included, among which 195 patients with CR were included as CR group. From the rest 21,820 STEMI patients without CR, 390 patients at a ratio of 1:2 were included as the control group. A total of 66 patients accepted PCI in the CR group, and 132 patients who accepted PCI in the control group at a ratio of 1:2 were included. The status of first medical contact, laboratory examinations, and PCI characteristics were recorded. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the risk factors related to CR. Results: There was a higher proportion of patients with myocardial infarction (MI) in the high lateral wall in the CR group (23.6% vs. 8.2%, P<0.001). The proportion of single lesions was lower in the CR group (24.2% vs. 45.5%, P=0.004). Female (OR =2.318, 95% CI: 1.431-3.754, P=0.001), age (OR =1.066, 95% CI: 1.041-1.093, P<0.001), smoking (OR =1.750, 95% CI: 1.086-2.820, P=0.022), total chest pain time (OR =1.017, 95% CI: 1.000-1.035, P=0.049), recurrent acute chest pain (OR =2.750, 95% CI: 1.535-4.927, P=0.001), acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in the high lateral wall indicated by ECG (OR =5.527, 95% CI: 2.798-10.918, P<0.001), acute heart failure (OR =3.585, 95% CI: 2.074-6.195, P<0.001), and NT-proBNP level (OR =1.000, 95% CI: 1.000-1.000, P=0.023) were risk factors for CR in all patients. In patients who accepted PCI, single lesion (OR =0.421, 95% CI: 0.204-0.867, P=0.019), preoperative thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) grade (OR =0.358, 95% CI: 0.169-0.760, P=0.007), and postoperative TIMI grade (OR =0.222, 95% CI: 0.090-0.546, P=0.001) were risk factors for CR. Conclusions: Non-single lesions and preoperative and postoperative TIMI grades were risk factors for CR in patients who accepted PCI. In addition to previously reported indicators, we found that AMI in the high lateral wall maybe helpful in early and accurate identification and prevention of possible CR.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To explore the influence of CYP2C19 gene combined with platelet function test on clinical prognosis of patients with complex coronary artery disease receiving antiplatelet therapy after PCI. METHODS: A total of 200 patients undergoing PCI in our hospital due to complex coronary artery disease from February 2019 to February 2021 were selected and divided into the control group and the observation group according to whether CYP2C19 gene detection was performed. The control group was treated with dual antiplatelet therapy of classical aspirin combined with clopidogrel, and the observation group was treated with individual antiplatelet therapy. The patients in the two groups were followed up for 1 year after PCI, and their quality of life was assessed using the Seattle Angina Questionnaire (SAQ score). The occurrence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) during the follow-up period was also recorded. RESULTS: The incidence of total MACE events in the observation group was slightly less than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P = 0.040). In particular, the observation group was superior to the control group in reducing the readmission rate of recurrent unstable angina pectoris, and the difference was statistically significant (P = 0.023). The location of coronary culprit lesions with recurrent ischemic events was commonly seen in non-interventional target lesions (interventional/non-interventional target sites: 12.9%: 77.1%). The SAQ score in the observation group was larger than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P = 0.012). There was no statistical difference in the incidence of major bleeding between the two groups (P = 0.352). CONCLUSION: Using CYP2C19 genotype combined with platelet function test to guide individualized antiplatelet therapy after complex coronary artery PCI is beneficial to reducing ischemic events in a short period (1 year), mainly due to reducing the risk of readmission for recurrent unstable angina pectoris, and improving the quality of daily life of patients without increasing the risk of massive hemorrhage, which can improve clinical prognosis.

RESUMO

ABSTRACT: Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) has become the most common cause of death in the developed countries. However, its pathogenesis is poorly understood. Increasing studies have revealed that lncRNAs are important modulators of AMI development. This study aimed to explore the function of lncRNA noncoding repressor of nuclear factor of activated T cells (NRON) in hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R)-stimulated H9c2 cells. NRON expression in peripheral blood of AMI patients and H/R-stimulated H9c2 cells was measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. H9c2 cells were transfected with si-NRON or cotransfected with si-NRON and si-hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α). The viability and apoptosis of these cells were evaluated by MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2, 5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) assay and flow cytometer, respectively. In addition, HIF-1α, AKT/mTOR signal pathways and ERK1/2 were detected by western blot. NRON knockdown in the myocardial infarction mouse model was conducted through adeno-associated virus injection, and cardiac function was evaluated by motion-mode echocardiography. The results showed that NRON was highly expressed in peripheral blood of AMI patients and H/R-stimulated H9c2 cells. NRON knockdown promoted cell viability and inhibited cell apoptosis of H/R-stimulated H9c2 cells. Meanwhile, NRON knockdown also significantly attenuated heart damage and improved cardiac function in an AMI mouse model. Furthermore, compared with si-normal control, NRON knockdown increased the levels of HIF-1α, p-AKT, p-mTOR, and p-ERK1/2. HIF-1α knockdown reversed the effects of NRON knockdown in H/R-stimulated-H9c2 cells damage. Overall, our study revealed that NRON knockdown alleviated H/R-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis by upregulating HIF-1α expression, suggesting that NRON might be a novel therapeutic target for AMI.

RESUMO

Epidemiological evidence suggests that the incidence of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) among people under 40 years of age has an increasing trend in recent years. Smoking, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, family history, and gender (male) are considered as classic risk factors for CHD, but the pathogenesis of CHD in young people is not exactly the same. Moreover, the relationship between the pattern of coronary artery disease and risk factors in young patients with acute myocardial infarction is inconclusive. In this study, we retrospectively studied the clinical data of 150 AMI patients treated in our hospital from January 2020 to May 2021. The patients were divided into the young group and elderly group according to the difference in age. The number of coronary artery lesions, the degree of coronary artery stenosis, the distribution dominance typing, the position of the lesions, and the presence of collateral circulation were observed and compared between the two groups. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the risk factors affecting coronary artery lesions in young patients with AMI. The results showed that the number of coronary lesions in young patients with AMI was mainly single-vessel, and the dominant type of distribution was mainly right dominant type. The stenosis degree is lighter than that of elderly patients, and the incidence of collateral circulation is lower than that of elderly patients, but the position of the lesions has no obvious regular. Smoking, staying up late, HDL-C, and LDL-C/ApoB were independent factors affecting the number of coronary artery lesions, and the changes of HDL-C and LDL-C/ApoB had an important influence on the degree of coronary stenosis in young patients. This provides a new idea for clinical treatment.

RESUMO

Background: In order to reduce the risk of invasive blood pressure monitoring and improve the safety and efficiency, this article mainly analyzes the effectiveness and safety of using positive-pressure connector for invasive blood pressure monitoring in patients with coronary artery interventional therapy, so as to improve the invasive blood pressure monitoring method. Aim: To study and analyze the application of positive-pressure connector in invasive blood pressure monitoring in coronary interventional therapy. Methods: From October 2017 to October 2019, a total of 120 patients admitted to Cangzhou Central Hospital, Cangzhou, Hebei, China, for coronary interventional therapy with invasive blood pressure monitoring were selected and divided into a control group and an experimental group by drawing lots with 60 patients in each group. Positive-pressure connector was used for invasive blood pressure detection in the experimental group, and heparin cap connector was used for invasive blood pressure detection in the control group. The effectiveness and safety of blood pressure monitoring in the two groups were compared, and the influence of different joints on invasive blood pressure monitoring was analyzed. Results: The influencing factors of puncture efficiency in the experimental group (6.67%) were significantly lower than those in the control group (30.00%) (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in catheter bending between the experimental group and the control group (P > 0.05). The experimental group exhibited a remarkably higher puncture safety rate (93%) compared to the control group (67%) (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in arterial blood pressure between the two groups with different indwelling time (P > 0.05). The frequency of extubation and reinsertion in the experimental group was significantly lower than that in the control group (P < 0.05). Factors influencing puncture safety in the experimental group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: The use of positive-pressure connector for invasive blood pressure monitoring in patients with coronary artery interventional therapy can greatly improve the safety of blood pressure monitoring and reduce the suffering of patients. Therefore, the application of positive-pressure connector in invasive blood pressure monitoring is worthy of promotion and application in clinical practice.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Sepsis is a severe infection-induced disease with multiple organ failure, and sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy is a fatal condition. Inflammatory response and oxidative stress are reported to be involved in the development of sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy. Dulaglutide is a novel antidiabetic agent that is currently reported to exert an anti-inflammatory effect. The present study aims to explore the potential protective property of dulaglutide on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced injury on cardiomyocytes. METHODS: LPS was used to induce an in vitro injury model on cardiomyocytes. The mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) level was detected using MitoSOX red, and reduced glutathione (GSH) was measured to evaluate the status of oxidative stress in H9c2 myocardial cells. The expressions of NADPH oxidase-1 (NOX-1) and inducible nitric oxidesynthase (iNOS) were determined using real-time PCR and western blot analysis. Real-time PCR and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) were both used to detect the expressions and concentrations of tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-1ß, interleukin-17, matrix metalloproteinase-2, and matrix metalloproteinase-9 in H9c2 myocardial cells, respectively. The production of nitric oxide (NO) was measured using the Griess reagent. The levels of creatine kinase isoenzyme-MB (CK-MB) and cardiac troponin I (cTnI) were detected using ELISA. Western blot was utilized to determine the expressions of toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88), and p-NF-κB p65 in H9c2 myocardial cells in the nucleus. RESULTS: First, dulaglutide ameliorated LPS-induced oxidative stress by suppressing the production of mitochondrial ROS and elevating the level of reduced GSH, as well as downregulating NOX-1. Second, the LPS-induced cardiomyocyte injury was alleviated by dulaglutide through downregulating CK-MB and cTnI, accompanied by inhibiting iNOS expression and NO production. Lastly, the production of inflammatory factors and upregulation of MMPs induced by LPS were both significantly reversed by dulaglutide through suppressing the TLR4/Myd88/NF-κB signaling pathway. CONCLUSIONS: Dulaglutide alleviated LPS-induced injury in cardiomyocytes by inhibiting inflammation and oxidative stress.

RESUMO

Coronary microembolization (CME)-induced inflammation and cardiomyocyte apoptosis are two key factors contributing to CME-induced myocardial dysfunction. High-mobility group box-1 (HMGB1) plays essential role in progression of CME-induced injury and inhibition of HMGB1 has been shown to be protective. In present study, the potential effects of glycyrrhizin, a HMGB1 inhibitor, on CME-induced myocardial dysfunction are evaluated. Using a rat model of CME, we administrated glycyrrhizin in rats prior to CME induction. The level of HMGB1, TNF-α, iNOS, IL-6, IL-1ß, cleaved caspase-3, Bax, and Bcl-2 were measured. The serum level of cardiac troponin I, creatine kinase, was detected. The cardiac function and cardiomyocyte apoptosis were evaluated. The activation of TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway was analyzed. Glycyrrhizin prevented CME-induced production of HMGB1, TNF-α, iNOS, IL-6, and IL-1ß. Glycyrrhizin inhibited CME-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis and the expression of cleaved caspase-3 and Bax, while enhanced the expression of Bcl-2. Glycyrrhizin decreased cardiac troponin I and creatine kinase levels and improved cardiac function. Glycyrrhizin prevented the activation of HMGB1/TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway. Glycyrrhizin ameliorated myocardial dysfunction in CME rats by preventing inflammation and apoptosis of cardiomyocytes.

RESUMO

Globally, acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a serious condition affecting millions of individuals. While AMI therapy improves blood flow during surgery, reperfusion-induced injury may also occur, leading to secondary cardiac damage or even death. Here, we investigated miR-129-5p in myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury in rats, to explore reperfusion-related molecular mechanisms in myocardium. We used Sprague Dawley rats to establish a myocardial I/R model, with agomiR-129-5p injection, and used rat cardiomyocytes (H9c2) treated with anoxia-reoxygenation (A/R) to mimic myocardial I/R injury in vitro. A dual-luciferase reporter assay determined miR-129-5p binding to high mobility group box-1 (HMGB1) in H9c2 cells. We showed that exogenous miR-129-5p restored cardiac function indices, alleviated cardiac injury, relieved inflammatory effects and reduced infarct size and cell apoptosis in rat myocardium after I/R treatment. Elevated miR-129-5p induced a reduction in HMGB1 expression in rat I/R myocardium. miR-129-5p also targeted HMGB1, and negatively regulated its expression in H9c2 cells. Moreover, miR-129-5p overexpression in the cardiomyocytes reduced cell apoptosis and recovered cell viability after A/R injury, which was reversed by subsequent HMGB1 overexpression. These findings suggest miR-129-5p plays a cardioprotective role in ameliorating myocardial I/R injury in rats, by negatively targeting HMGB1. This mechanism provides new insights into the treatment of myocardium reperfusion-related damage.

RESUMO

C-C motif Chemokine ligand 8 (CCL8) has been found in diseases' pathogenesis. But its molecular mechanism in atherosclerosis (AS) remains to be elucidated. Human aortic smooth muscle cells (HASMCs) were stimulated by PDGF-BB to establish cell model. α-SMA in PDGF-BB-stimulated HASMCs was measured by immunofluorescence staining. Relative gene expressions in PDGF-BB-stimulated HASMCs were detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and western blot. HASMCs proliferation, migration, and cell cycle were assessed by cell counting kit-8, wound-healing assay, and flow cytometry. HASMCs viability was increased after PDGF-BB stimulation, with α-SMA downregulation yet CCL8 upregulation. Silencing CCL8 inhibited PDGF-BB-stimulated HASMCs proliferation and migration, and increased cells percentage in G1 phases but decreased those in S phase. Also, silencing CCL8 decreased OPN and cyclinD1 expressions and AKT and ERK1/2 phosphorylation while increased those of α-SMA and Sm22α. However, upregulating CCL8 led to opposite effects, suggesting CCL8 could be an atherosclerosis therapeutic target.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury primarily causes myocardial infarction (MI), which is manifested by cell death. Angiogenesis is essential for repair and regeneration in cardiac tissue after MI. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effect of exosomes derived from the serum of MI patients in angiogenesis and its related mechanism. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Exosomes, isolated from serum, were collected from MI (MI-exosome) and control (Con-exosome) patients. After coculturing with human umbilical vein endothelial cells, MI-exosome promoted cell proliferation, migration, and tube formation. RESULTS: The results revealed that the production and release of MI-exosome were associated with cardiomyocytes. Moreover, microarray assays demonstrated that miRNA-143 was significantly decreased in MI-exosome. Meanwhile, the overexpression and knockdown of miRNA-143 could inhibit and enhance angiogenesis, respectively. Furthermore, the effect of exosomal miRNA-143 on angiogenesis was mediated by its targeting gene, insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-IR), and was associated with the production of nitric oxide (NO). CONCLUSION: Taken together, exosomes derived from the serum of patients with MI promoted angiogenesis through the IGF-IR/NO signaling pathway. The results provide novel understanding of the function of exosomes in MI.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The goal of this study was to review relevant case-control studies to determine the association of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) gene polymorphisms and coronary artery disease (CAD) susceptibility. METHODS: Using appropriate keywords, we identified relevant studies using PubMed, Cochrane, Embase, CNKI, VANFUN, and VIP. Key pertinent sources in the literature were also reviewed, and all articles published through April 2019 were considered for inclusion. Based on eligible studies, we performed a meta-analysis of association between 308G/A, 238G/A, 857C/T, 863C/A and 1031 T/C polymorphisms in TNF-α and risk of CAD. RESULTS: We found 25 studies that were consistent with this meta-analysis, including 7697 patients in the CAD group and 9655 control patients. TNF-α 308G/A locus A showed no significant association with CAD susceptibility by the five models in the analysis of the overall population, European, African, South Asian, and North Asian patients. TNF-α 863C/A locus A and 1031 T/C locus C exhibited no significant association with CAD susceptibility. TNF-α 238G/A locus A had no significant association with CAD susceptibility in the overall population. However, TNF-α 238G/A locus A showed significant association with higher CAD susceptibility in the subgroup of Europeans and north Asians. TNF-α 857C/T locus T had no significant association with CAD susceptibility in the analysis of the overall population and Europeans. In the north Asian population, TNF-α 857C/T locus T was associated with lower CAD susceptibility by the heterozygote model. CONCLUSION: TNF-α 308G/A, 857C/T, 863C/A, and 1031 T/C has no significant association with CAD susceptibility. TNF-α 238G/A locus A has significant association with CAD susceptibility in Europeans and north Asians, but has no significant association in the overall population. Studies with a larger sample size are required to confirm the association between TNF-α 238G/A and CAD susceptibility.

RESUMO

Existing methods often fail to recognize the conversions for the biological roles of the pairs of genes and microRNAs (miRNAs) between the tumor and normal samples. We have developed a novel cluster scoring method to identify messenger RNA (mRNA) and miRNA interaction pairs and clusters while considering tumor and normal samples jointly. Our method has identified 54 significant clusters for 15 cancer types selected from The Cancer Genome Atlas project. We also determined the shared clusters across tumor types and/or subtypes. In addition, we compared gene and miRNA overlap between lists identified in our liver hepatocellular carcinoma (LIHC) study and regulatory relationships reported from human and rat nonalcoholic fatty liver disease studies (NAFLD). Finally, we analyzed biological functions for the single significant cluster in LIHC and uncovered a significantly enriched pathway (phospholipase D signaling pathway) with six genes represented in the cluster, symbols: DGKQ, LPAR2, PDGFRB, PIK3R3, PTGFR and RAPGEF3.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND Vitamin D (VD) deficiency and local inflammation of plaque are potential new risk factors and prevention goals for coronary heart disease (CHD). MATERIAL AND METHODS This study included 135 CHD patients and 45 chest tightness or chest pain patients (control group). Basic clinical data and serum 25-OH-VD, TNF-α, IL-6, IL-8, and IL-1ß of the 2 groups were compared by SPSS 25.0. A CHD rat model was used to explore the potential molecular mechanisms. RESULTS The serum 25-OH-VD level in the control group was significantly higher compared to the CHD group, and decreased with the worsening of the CHD condition. Logistic regression found that serum 25-OH-VD was a protective factor in the occurrence of CHD. In CHD patients, the level of serum 25-OH-VD had a negative correlation with serum TNF-α (r=-0.651, P<0.001), IL-6 (r=-0.457, P<0.001), IL-8 (r=-0.755, P<0.001), and IL-1ß (r=-0.628, P<0.001). In animal experiments, VD deficiency enhanced the level of serum TC, TG, and LDL-C. VD deficiency could increase the inflammatory response by upregulating the expression of p65 protein and reducing SIRT1 protein expression in heart tissue, thereby inducing or aggravating the state of CHD. CONCLUSIONS Serum 25-OH-VD was a protective factor in the occurrence of CHD, and VD deficiency could induce or aggravate the state of CHD by enhancing inflammation through the NF-κB pathway.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Unprotected left main coronary artery (ULMCA) disease is associated with high mortality and morbidity. The aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) on gender-specific patients with ULMCA in the Chinese population and provide a basis for further treatment of PCI in ULMCA disease. METHODS: 173 patients (female, N = 52; male, N = 121; mean age = 61.02 ± 7.95) with ULMCA disease, who underwent PCI between January 2010 and December 2014, were investigated in our study. The mean follow-up time was 23.8 ± 7.3 months. The baseline clinical characteristics, coronary angiography (CAG) and PCI procedures, and in-hospital and follow-up outcomes of gender-specific patients were evaluated. RESULTS: There were no statistically significant differences in baseline clinical characteristics with the exception of body weight, height, and smoking indexes between women and men. During PCI procedure, femoral artery puncture was more preferred in women than men (P < .05), whereas radial artery puncture was more preferred in men than women (P < .05). The characteristics of CAG and PCI procedures (except puncture path) were showed with no markedly difference between women and men. The incidences of MACCEs in male patients during the in-hospital and follow-up periods were slightly higher than those of the female patients although with no statistical differences. CONCLUSION: In northern China, the incidence of ULMCA disease in men is likely to be higher than in women, whereas PCI for ULMCA disease shows similarly favorable outcomes in women as well as in men. During the PCI procedure, femoral artery puncture in women and radial artery puncture in men are recommended.

RESUMO

This study aimed to exploit the potential therapeutic value of palmatine in treatment of cardiac hypertrophy and the underlying molecular mechanism. Rat hypertrophy model was established by intraperitoneal isoproterenol (ISO) injection. The hypertrophy was evaluated with cardiac hypertrophic parameters, hemodynamic parameters, lipid profile, and non-specific cardiac markers. The animals were intraperitoneally administrated with either palmatine or vehicle. The relative expressions of ANP, BNP, HDAC2, HDAC5, KLF4, and INPP5F transcripts were determined by real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The relative protein levels of HDAC2, HDAC5, KLF4, and INPP5F were analyzed by immunoblotting. Palmatine treatment significantly attenuated ISO-induced hypertrophy in rats and elicited remarkable repressions in ANP, BNP, and HDAC2 transcriptions but not HDAC5. The downstream effector genes KLF4 and INPP5F were greatly restored in a dose-dependent manner in response to palmatine treatment. Our data demonstrated that palmatine possessed promising therapeutic potential against hypertrophy, which was mediated by modulation of HDAC2-KLF4/INPP5F pathway.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: Coronary artery perforation (CAP) is a rare, serious complication of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Many studies have addressed the incidence, risk factors, and management of CAP in different countries except China. The aim of this study is to determine the risk factors and types of treatment for coronary perforation occurring in patients undergoing PCI and living in the Cangzhou Chinese population. METHODS AND RESULTS: A retrospective cohort of 12,113 patients who underwent PCI was used: 64 patients with CAP and 192 case-control patients were evaluated. Clinical data and findings from coronary arteriography and PCI were analysed. Logistic regression was used to evaluate candidate risk factors for CAP. The treatments were also evaluated. The incidence of CAP in patients undergoing PCI was 0.53%, and the mortality was 7.8% (5/64). Risk factors included female gender, hypertension, non-ST-elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS), right coronary artery (RCA) lesion, calcified lesion, and chronic total occlusion (CTO) (all P < 0.05, all OR > 1). CTO had the highest risk (OR = 5.077, P < 0.001). Patients with class I CAP underwent conservative treatment. Patients with class II CAP underwent conservative treatment or low-pressure balloon dilatation (61.1% and 22.2%, respectively). Patients with class III CAP underwent low-pressure balloon dilatation, coated-stent implantation, and emergency surgery (40.9%, 27.3%, and 22.7%, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: CAP risk factors in Cangzhou Chinese patients undergoing PCI included CTO, NSTE-ACS, hypertension, calcified and RCA lesions, and female gender. Different treatment methods should be used according to the different classes of CAP.
