ABSTRACT
The molecular mechanisms underlying cardiovascular complications after the SARS-CoV-2 infection remain unknown. The goal of our study was to analyze the features of blood coagulation, platelet aggregation, and plasma proteomics in COVID-19 convalescents with AMI. The study included 66 AMI patients and 58 healthy volunteers. The groups were divided according to the anti-N IgG levels (AMI post-COVID (n = 44), AMI control (n = 22), control post-COVID (n = 31), and control (n = 27)). All participants underwent rotational thromboelastometry, thrombodynamics, impedance aggregometry, and blood plasma proteomics analysis. Both AMI groups of patients demonstrated higher values of clot growth rates, thrombus size and density, as well as the elevated levels of components of the complement system, proteins modifying the state of endothelium, acute-phase and procoagulant proteins. In comparison with AMI control, AMI post-COVID patients demonstrated decreased levels of proteins connected to inflammation and hemostasis (lipopolysaccharide-binding protein, C4b-binding protein alpha-chain, plasma protease C1 inhibitor, fibrinogen beta-chain, vitamin K-dependent protein S), and altered correlations between inflammation and fibrinolysis. A new finding is that AMI post-COVID patients opposite the AMI control group, are characterized by a less noticeable growth of acute-phase proteins and hemostatic markers that could be explained by prolonged immune system alteration after COVID-19.
