ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
In the search of novel biomarkers of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) progression, proteins released by intraluminal thrombus (ILT) were analyzed by a differential proteomic approach. METHODS ANDRESULTS:
Different layers (luminal/abluminal) of the ILT of AAA were incubated, and the proteins released were analyzed by 2-dimensional difference in-gel electrophoresis. Several differentially expressed proteins involved in main AAA pathological mechanisms (proteolysis, oxidative stress, and thrombosis) were identified by mass spectrometry. Among the proteins identified, peroxiredoxin-1 (PRX-1) was more released by the luminal layer compared with the abluminal layer of the ILT, which was further validated by Western blot, ELISA, and immunohistochemistry. We demonstrated increased PRX-1 serum levels in AAA patients compared with healthy subjects and also positive correlation among PRX-1 and AAA diameter, plasmin-antiplasmin, and myeloperoxidase levels. Finally, a prospective study revealed a positive correlation between PRX-1 serum levels and AAA expansion rate. Moreover, the combination of PRX-1 and AAA size had significantly additive value in predicting growth.CONCLUSIONS:
Several proteins associated with AAA pathogenesis have been identified by a proteomic approach in ILT-conditioned medium. Among them, PRX-1 serum levels are increased in AAA patients and correlate with AAA size and growth rate, suggesting the potential use of PRX-1 as a biomarker for AAA evolution.
