Abstract
Although several risk factors such as infarct size have been identified, the progression/severity of heart failure (HF) remains difficult to predict in clinical practice. Using an experimental rat model of ischemic HF and phosphoproteomic technology, we found an increased level of phosphorylated desmin in the left ventricle (LV) of HF-rats. The purpose of the present work is to assess whether desmin is a circulating or only a tissue biomarker of HF. We used several antibodies in order to detect desmin, its proteolytic fragments and its phosphorylated form in LV and plasma by western blot, phosphate affinity electrophoresis, mass spectrometry and immunofluorescence. Plasma was treated with combinatorial peptide ligand library or depleted for albumin and immunoglobulins to increase the sensitivity of detection. We found a 2-fold increased serine-desmin phosphorylation in the LV of HF-rats, mainly in the insoluble fraction, suggesting the formation of desmin aggregates. Desmin cleavage products were also detected in the LV of HF rats, indicating that the increased phosphorylation of desmin results in more susceptibility to proteolytic activity, likely mediated by calpain activity. The native desmin and its degradation products were undetectable in the plasma of rat, mouse or human. These data suggest the potential of serine-phosphorylated form of desmin and its degradation products, but not of desmin itself, as tissue but not circulating biomarkers of HF. Desmin is mainly expressed in insoluble fraction of rat left ventricle. In experimental heart failure, desmin is highly phosphorylated in serine. Desmin and its degradation products are not detected in plasma.

Abstract
Heart failure is a major public health problem with an estimated prevalence of 1-2% in the adult population in developed countries. Despite some progress, the prognosis of heart failure is associated with high mortality. There is a need for prognostic markers for heart failure, such as circulating biomarkers, in order to better identify individual heart failure patients with high risk of early death, and to improve the selection of patients for invasive treatment with limited availability such as heart transplantation. Among the non coding RNA family, we investigated the potentiality of long non coding RNAs (lncRNA) as potential biomarkers in heart disease. We observed that the plasmatic levels of the lncRNA named LIPCAR may predict early mortality in patients with heart failure independently of the etiology and may improve clinical-decision making for a more personalized treatment of "high-risk" patients.

Abstract
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is an inflammatory disease associated with marked changes in the cellular composition of the aortic wall. This study aims to identify microRNA (miRNA) expression in aneurysmal inflammatory cells isolated by laser microdissection from human tissue samples. The distribution of inflammatory cells (neutrophils, B and T lymphocytes, mast cells) was evaluated in human AAA biopsies. We observed in half of the samples that adventitial tertiary lymphoid organs (ATLOs) with a thickness from 0.5 to 2 mm were located exclusively in the adventitia. Out of the 850 miRNA that were screened by microarray in isolated ATLOs (n = 2), 164 miRNAs were detected in ATLOs. The three miRNAs (miR-15a-3p, miR-30a-5p and miR-489-3p) with the highest expression levels were chosen and their expression quantified by RT-PCR in isolated ATLOs (n = 4), M1 (n = 2) and M2 macrophages (n = 2) and entire aneurysmal biopsies (n = 3). Except for the miR-30a-5p, a similar modulation was found in ATLOs and the two subtypes of macrophages. The modulated miRNAs were then evaluated in the plasma of AAA patients for their potential as AAA biomarkers. Our data emphasize the potential of miR-15a-3p and miR-30a-5p as biomarkers of AAA but also as triggers of ATLO evolution. Further investigations will be required to evaluate their targets in order to better understand AAA pathophysiology.

Abstract
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a vascular asymptomatic disease responsible for 4% of mortality in the elderly population. MicroRNAs (miRNA) have recently been shown to be potential biomarkers due to their stability in plasma.
The aim of this study was to investigate the potentiality of miRNAS as biomarkers of AAA by identifying miRNAs specifically expressed in the key cells present in the human AAA tissue.
The distribution of inflammatory cells such as smooth muscle cells (SMC), M1 and M2 macrophages, neutrophils, B and T lymphocytes and mast cells were located by immunohistochemistry in 20 human AAA biopsies, showing a specific distribution towards the aneurysmal aortic wall and the presence of adventitial tertiary lymphoid organs (ATLOs) in 10 samples. We isolated by laser microdissection (LMD) area enriched in aneurysmal SMC, M1 and M2 macrophages, and ATLOs and SMC from control aorta. RNA extracted from 2 samples of LMD-isolated cells was screened on human miRNAs microarray.
Out of the 850 human miRNAs, more than 200 miRNAs were detected in LMD-isolated aneurysmal cells, with 164 detected in ATLOs, 49 in SMC, and 87 miRNAs in macrophages. We selected the 3 miRs with the highest expression for ATLOs and 10 miRs (based on their miR-29b levels) for SMC and macrophages for validation by qRT-PCR in LMD-isolated samples (n=4).
We found that miR-15a-3p (0.1 fold) and miR-30a-5p (0.2 fold) were down-regulated and miR-489-3p up-regulated (2 fold) in ATLOs which was inversed for miR-489-3p in the whole aneurysmal aorta. Of the 10 miRNAs selected, six (miR-199a-3p and miR-451 upregulated and miR-24, miR-29a, miR-29b, and miR-29c downregulated) were modulated similarly in SMC and macrophages and whole aneurysmal aorta, except for miR-199-3p. Let-7f and miR-34a were similarly upregulated ed in both subtypes of macrophages and aneurysmal aorta.
Expression in the plasma of AAA (n=24) compared to PAD (n=18) patients was significantly down-regulated for miR-15a-3p (p = 0.03) and miR-30a-5p (p = 0.04) and upregulated for let-7f (p=0.048) and miR-29b (p=0.035).
In conclusion, this non-hypothesis driven screening of miRNAs expressed in isolated aneurysmal cells allowed to identify four miRNAs as potential AAA biomarkers.

Abstract
AIMS Previous studies have reported that decreased serine 208 phosphorylation of troponin T (TnTpSer208) is associated with ischaemic heart failure (HF), but the molecular mechanisms and functional consequences of these changes are unknown. The aim of this study was to characterize the balance between serine phosphorylation and O-N-acetylglucosaminylation (O-GlcNAcylation) of TnT in HF, its mechanisms, and the consequences of modulating these post-translational modifications. METHODS AND RESULTS Decreased TnTpSer208 levels in the left ventricles of HF male Wistar rats were associated with reduced expression of PKCε but not of other cardiac PKC isoforms. In both isolated perfused rat hearts and cultured neonatal cardiomyocytes, the PKCε inhibitor εV1-2 decreased TnTpSer208 and simultaneously decreased cardiac contraction in isolated hearts and beating amplitude in neonatal cardiomyocytes (measured by atomic force microscopy). Down-regulating PKCε by silencing RNA (siRNA) also reduced TnTpSer208 in these cardiomyocytes, and PKCε-/- mice had lower TnTpSer208 levels than the wild-type. In parallel, HF increased TnT O-GlcNAcylation via both increased O-GlcNAc transferase and decreased O-GlcNAcase activity. Increasing O-GlcNAcylation (via O-GlcNAcase inhibition with Thiamet G) decreased TnTpSer208 in isolated hearts, while reducing O-GlcNAcylation (O-GlcNAc transferase siRNA) increased TnTpSer208 in neonatal cardiomyocytes. Mass spectrometry and NMR analysis identified O-GlcNAcylation of TnT on Ser190. CONCLUSION These data demonstrate interplay between Ser208 phosphorylation and Ser190 O-GlcNAcylation of TnT in ischaemic HF, linked to decreased activity of both PKCε and O-GlcNAcase and increased O-GlcNAc transferase activity. Modulation of these post-translational modifications of TnT may be a new therapeutic strategy in HF.

Abstract
Risk stratification of patients with systolic chronic heart failure (HF) is critical to better identify those who may benefit from invasive therapeutic strategies such as cardiac transplantation. Proteomics has been used to provide prognostic information in various diseases. Our aim was to investigate the potential value of plasma proteomic profiling for risk stratification in HF. A proteomic profiling using surface enhanced laser desorption ionization - time of flight - mass spectrometry was performed in a case/control discovery population of 198 patients with systolic HF (left ventricular ejection fraction <45%): 99 patients who died from cardiovascular cause within 3 years and 99 patients alive at 3 years. Proteomic scores predicting cardiovascular death were developed using 3 regression methods: support vector machine, sparse partial least square discriminant analysis, and lasso logistic regression. Forty two ion m/z peaks were differentially intense between cases and controls in the discovery population and were used to develop proteomic scores. In the validation population, score levels were higher in patients who subsequently died within 3 years. Similar areas under the curves (0.66 - 0.68) were observed for the 3 methods. After adjustment on confounders, proteomic scores remained significantly associated with cardiovascular mortality. Use of the proteomic scores allowed a significant improvement in discrimination of HF patients as determined by integrated discrimination improvement and net reclassification improvement indexes. In conclusion, proteomic analysis of plasma proteins may help to improve risk prediction in HF patients.

Abstract
A close link between intrauterine growth restriction and development of chronic adult diseases such as obesity, diabetes, and hypertension has been established both in humans and animals. Modification of growth velocity during the early postnatal period (i.e., lactation) may also sensitize to the development of metabolic syndrome in adulthood. This suggests that milk composition may have long-lasting programming/deprogramming metabolic effects in the offspring. We therefore assess the effects of maternal perinatal denutrition on breast milk composition in a food-restricted 50% (FR50) rat model. Monosaccharides and fatty acids were characterized by gas chromatography, and proteins were profiled by surface-enhanced laser desorption/ionization-time-of-flight analysis in milk samples from FR50 and control rat dams. Milk analysis of FR50 rats demonstrated that maternal undernutrition decreases lactose concentration and modulates lipid profile at postnatal day 10 by increasing the unsaturated fatty acids/saturated fatty acids and diminishes serotransferrin levels at postnatal day 21. Our data indicate that maternal perinatal undernutrition modifies milk composition both quantitatively and qualitatively. These modifications by maternal nutrition open new perspectives to identify molecules that could be used in artificial milk to protect from the subsequent development of metabolic diseases.

Abstract
The goal of the two-dimensional (2D) electrophoresis protocol described here is to show how to analyse the phenotype of human cultured macrophages. The key role of macrophages has been shown in various pathological disorders such as inflammatory, immunological, and infectious diseases. In this protocol, we use primary cultures of human monocyte-derived macrophages that can be differentiated into the M1 (pro-inflammatory) or the M2 (anti-inflammatory) phenotype. This in vitro model is reliable for studying the biological activities of M1 and M2 macrophages and also for a proteomic approach. Proteomic techniques are useful for comparing the phenotype and behaviour of M1 and M2 macrophages during host pathogenicity. 2D gel electrophoresis is a powerful proteomic technique for mapping large numbers of proteins or polypeptides simultaneously. We describe the protocol of 2D electrophoresis using fluorescent dyes, named 2D Differential Gel Electrophoresis (DIGE). The M1 and M2 macrophages proteins are labelled with cyanine dyes before separation by isoelectric focusing, according to their isoelectric point in the first dimension, and their molecular mass, in the second dimension. Separated protein or polypeptidic spots are then used to detect differences in protein or polypeptide expression levels. The proteomic approaches described here allows the investigation of the macrophage protein changes associated with various disorders like host pathogenicity or microbial toxins.

Abstract
Dephosphorylation of important myocardial proteins is regulated by protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A), representing a heterotrimer that is comprised of catalytic, scaffolding, and regulatory (B) subunits. There is a multitude of B subunit family members directing the PP2A holoenzyme to different myocellular compartments. To gain a better understanding of how these B subunits contribute to the regulation of cardiac performance, we generated transgenic (TG) mice with cardiomyocyte-directed overexpression of B56α, a phosphoprotein of the PP2A-B56 family. The 2-fold overexpression of B56α was associated with an enhanced PP2A activity that was localized mainly in the cytoplasm and myofilament fraction. Contractility was enhanced both at the whole heart level and in isolated cardiomyocytes of TG compared with WT mice. However, peak amplitude of [Ca]i did not differ between TG and WT cardiomyocytes. The basal phosphorylation of cardiac troponin inhibitor (cTnI) and the myosin-binding protein C was reduced by 26 and 35%, respectively, in TG compared with WT hearts. The stimulation of β-adrenergic receptors by isoproterenol (ISO) resulted in an impaired contractile response of TG hearts. At a depolarizing potential of -5 mV, the ICa,L current density was decreased by 28% after administration of ISO in TG cardiomyocytes. In addition, the ISO-stimulated phosphorylation of phospholamban at Ser(16) was reduced by 27% in TG hearts. Thus, the increased PP2A-B56α activity in TG hearts is localized to specific subcellular sites leading to the dephosphorylation of important contractile proteins. This may result in higher myofilament Ca(2+) sensitivity and increased basal contractility in TG hearts. These effects were reversed by β-adrenergic stimulation.

Abstract
Heart failure is common in older people and its prevalence is increasing. The Heart ‘omics’ in AGEing (HOMAGE) project aims to provide a biomarker approach that will improve the early diagnosis of heart failure. A large clinical database, based on (1) prospective population studies or (2) cross-sectional, prospective studies or randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of patients at risk for or with overt cardiovascular disease will be constructed to determine most promising ‘omics’-based biomarkers to identify the risk of developing heart failure and/or comorbidities. Population studies, patient cohorts and RCTs are eligible for inclusion in the common database, if they received ethical approval to obtain and share data and have baseline information on cardiovascular risk factors. Currently, the HOMAGE database includes 43,065 subjects, from 20 studies in eight European countries, including healthy subjects from three population studies in France, Belgium and Italy (n = 7,124), patients with heart failure (n = 4,312) from four cohorts in the UK, Spain and Switzerland and patients at high risk for cardiovascular disease (n = 31,629) in 13 cohorts. It is anticipated that more partners will join the consortium and enlarge the pooled data. This large merged database will be a useful resource with which to identify candidate biomarkers that play a role in the mechanism underlying the onset and progression of heart failure.

Abstract
Rationale:
Long noncoding RNAs represent a novel class of molecules regulating gene expression. Long noncoding RNAs are present in body fluids, but their potential as biomarkers was never investigated in cardiovascular disease.
Objective:
To study the role of long noncoding RNAs as potential biomarkers in heart disease.
Methods and Results:
Global transcriptomic analyses were done in plasma RNA from patients with or without left ventricular remodeling after myocardial infarction. Regulated candidates were validated in 3 independent patient cohorts developing cardiac remodeling and heart failure (788 patients). The mitochondrial long noncoding RNA uc022bqs.1 (LIPCAR) was downregulated early after myocardial infarction but upregulated during later stages. LIPCAR levels identified patients developing cardiac remodeling and were independently to other risk markers associated with future cardiovascular deaths.
Conclusions:
LIPCAR is a novel biomarker of cardiac remodeling and predicts future death in patients with heart failure.

Abstract
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a vascular asymptomatic disease that is one of the leading causes of death in developed countries. Identifying biomarkers for AAA that can be detected easily in blood, before rupture could be useful.
The aim of this study was to investigate the potentiality of miRNAS as biomarkers of AAA by performing a profiling of miRNAs expressed in major cells present in the human AAA tissue.
The inflammatory cells as macrophages M1 and M2 and smooth muscle cells (SMC) were located by immunohistochemistry in 20 human AAA biopsies, showing a specific distribution towards the aneurysmal aortic wall. The cells were isolated by laser microdissection (LMD) from 20 human AAA biopsies obtained during surgical repair and control SMC from 14 healthy aortic biopsies harvested during organs multiretrieval. RNA extracted from 2 samples of each LMD isolated cells was screened on human miRNAs microarray. MiRNAs were selected with at least a 2-fold change and a detection value threshold corresponding to the value of miR-29b, described in experimental AAA models.
Out of the 850 human miRNAs tested for each sample, 408 were found to be present in AAA. Thirty miRNAs were common to each tested cells. Fifty-three miRNAs were found in SMC, of which 12 were specific to AAA compared to control aortas; 86 miRNAs were found in macrophages, of which 11 were specific to M1 macrophages, 37 to M2 macrophages and 38 common to both subtypes. Ten miRNAs were selected to be validated by quantitative RT-PCR in LMD isolated healthy SMC and aneurysmal SMC, M1 and M2 macrophages. We validated 4 miRNAs to be overexpressed in M1 macrophages and 1 overexpressed in M2 macrophages. Two miRs were validated to be less expressed in aneurysmal SMC compared to SMC from normal aortas. MiR-29b expression was specifically down-regulated in aneurysaml SMC compared to normal SMC.
In conclusion, the analysis of isolated cells allows to discriminate the miRNAs specifically expressed in inflammatory and vascular cells in AAA and to determine other miRNAs than those described in experimental AAA models as potential biomarkers of AAA.

Abstract
Remote ischemic preconditioning’s (RIPC) ability to render the myocardium resistant to subsequent prolonged ischemia is now clearly established in different species, including humans. Strong evidence suggests that circulating humoral mediators play a key role in signal transduction, but their identities still need to be established. Our study sought to identify potential circulating RIPC mediators using a proteomic approach. Rats were exposed to 10-min limb ischemia followed by 5- (RIPC 5′) or 10-min (RIPC 10′) reperfusion prior to blood sampling. The control group only underwent blood sampling. Plasma samples were isolated for proteomic analysis using surface-enhanced laser desorption and ionization - time of flight - mass spectrometry (SELDI-TOF-MS). A total of seven proteins, including haptoglobin and transthyretin, were detected as up- or down-regulated in response to RIPC. These proteins had previously been identified as associated with organ protection, anti-inflammation, and various cellular and molecular responses to ischemia. In conclusion, this study indicates that RIPC results in significant modulations of plasma proteome.

Background Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) has emerged as an attractive strategy in clinical settings. Despite convincing evidence of the critical role played by circulating humoral mediators, their actual identities remain unknown. In this study, we aimed to identify RIPC-induced humoral mediators using a proteomic approach. Methods and Results Rats were exposed to 10-min limb ischemia followed by 5- (RIPC 5′) or 10-min (RIPC 10′) reperfusion prior to blood sampling. The control group only underwent blood sampling. Plasma samples were analyzed using surface-enhanced laser desorption and ionization - time of flight - mass spectrometry (SELDI-TOF-MS). Three protein peaks were selected for their significant increase in RIPC 10′. They were identified and confirmed as apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I). Additional rats were exposed to myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) and assigned to one of the following groups RIPC+myocardial infarction (MI) (10-min limb ischemia followed by 10-min reperfusion initiated 20 minutes prior to myocardial I/R), ApoA-I+MI (10 mg/kg ApoA-I injection 10 minutes before myocardial I/R), and MI (no further intervention). In comparison with untreated MI rats, RIPC reduced infarct size (52.2±3.7% in RIPC+MI vs. 64.9±2.6% in MI; p<0.05). Similarly, ApoA-I injection decreased infarct size (50.9±3.8%; p<0.05 vs. MI). Conclusions RIPC was associated with a plasmatic increase in ApoA-I. Furthermore, ApoA-I injection before myocardial I/R recapitulated the cardioprotection offered by RIPC in rats. This data suggests that ApoA-I may be a protective blood-borne factor involved in the RIPC mechanism.

Abstract
In this study, we developed a novel computational approach based on protein-protein interaction networks to identify a list of proteins that might have remained undetected in differential proteomic profiling experiments. We tested our computational approach on two sets of human smooth muscle cell protein extracts that were affected differently by DNase I treatment. Differential proteomic analysis by saturation DIGE resulted in the identification of 41 human proteins. The application of our approach to these 41 input proteins consisted of four steps: (i) Compilation of a human protein-protein interaction network from public databases; (ii) calculation of interaction scores based on functional similarity; (iii) determination of a set of candidate proteins that are needed to efficiently and confidently connect the 41 input proteins; and (iv) ranking of the resulting 25 candidate proteins. Two of the three highest-ranked proteins, beta-arrestin 1, and beta-arrestin 2, were experimentally tested, revealing that their abundance levels in human smooth muscle cell samples were indeed affected by DNase I treatment. These proteins had not been detected during the experimental proteomic analysis. Our study suggests that our computational approach may represent a simple, universal, and cost-effective means to identify additional proteins that remain elusive for current 2D gel-based proteomic profiling techniques.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Extracellular matrix turnover plays a key role in wound repair after myocardial infarction (MI). The aim of the study was to evaluate whether biomarkers of myocardial fibrosis measurements 1 month after MI may predict left ventricular (LV) remodeling. METHODS AND RESULTS This prospective multicenter study included 246 patients with a first anterior Q-wave MI. Echocardiographic studies were performed at hospital discharge and 12 months after MI. Brain natriuretic peptide as well as biomarkers of myocardial fibrosis (type 1 collagen telopeptide, aminoterminal propeptide of type I procollagen, aminoterminal propeptide of type III procollagen) were measured 1 month after MI in 218 patients. In multivariate analysis, aminoterminal propeptide of type III procollagen/type 1 collagen telopeptide ratio ≤1 (odds ratio [95% confidence interval], 1.86 [1.02-3.39]; P=0.043) 1 month after MI and brain natriuretic peptide >100 pg/mL (2.35 [1.28-4.31]; P=0.006) were associated with a pejorative LV remodeling, whereas LV ejection fraction at discharge (per 5% increment; 0.78 [0.65-0.94]; P=0.01) was independently associated with lower rates of detrimental LV remodeling at 12 months. Patients with high brain natriuretic peptide and aminoterminal propeptide of type III procollagen/type 1 collagen telopeptide ratio ≤1, measured 1 month after MI, had the highest risk of developing a primary composite event (cardiovascular death or hospitalization for worsening heart failure; 14 events per 216 patients; P=0.0001) during a 3-year follow-up. CONCLUSIONS Myocardial fibrosis turnover after MI is associated with LV remodeling. Low aminoterminal propeptide of type III procollagen/type 1 collagen telopeptide ratio (≤1) at 1 month is predictive, in addition to brain natriuretic peptide and LV ejection fraction, of detrimental LV remodeling as well as cardiovascular deaths and hospitalizations for heart failure.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Left ventricular (LV) remodeling following myocardial infarction (MI) is characterized by progressive alterations of structure and function, named LV remodeling. Although several risk factors such as infarct size have been identified, LV remodeling remains difficult to predict in clinical practice. Changes within the extracellular matrix, involving matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs), are an integral part of left ventricular (LV) remodeling after myocardial infarction (MI). We investigated the temporal profile of circulating MMPs and TIMPs and their relations with LV remodeling at 1 year and clinical outcome at 3 years in post-MI patients. METHODS This prospective multicentre study included 246 patients with a first anterior MI. Serial echocardiographic studies were performed at hospital discharge, 3 months, and 1 year after MI, and analysed at a core laboratory. LV remodeling was defined as the percent change in LV end-diastolic volume (EDV) from baseline to 1 year. Serum samples were obtained at hospital discharge, 1, 3, and 12 months. Multiplex technology was used for analysis of MMP-1, -2, -3, -8, -9, -13, and TIMP-1, -2, -3, -4 serum levels. RESULTS Baseline levels of MMP-8 and MMP-9 were positively associated with changes in LVEDV (P = 0.01 and 0.02, respectively). When adjusted for major baseline characteristics, MMP-8 levels remained an independent predictor LV remodeling (P = 0.025). By univariate analysis, there were positive relations between cardiovascular death or hospitalization for heart failure during the 3-year follow-up and the baseline levels of MMP-2 (P = 0.03), MMP-8 (P = 0.002), and MMP-9 (P = 0.03). By multivariate analysis, MMP-8 was the only MMP remaining significantly associated with clinical outcome (P = 0.02). CONCLUSION Baseline serum MMP-8 is a significant predictor of LV remodeling and cardiovascular outcome after MI and may help to improve risk stratification.

Abstract
Heart failure (HF) following myocardial infarction (MI) is characterized by progressive alterations of left ventricular (LV) structure and function, named LV remodelling. Although several risk factors such as infarct size have been identified, HF remains difficult to predict in clinical practice. Recently, using phosphoproteomic technology, we found that serine(208)-phosphorylated troponin T (P-Ser(208)-TnT) decreases in LV of HF rats. Our aim was to determine the performance of P-Ser(208)-TnT as plasma biomarker of HF compared to conventional cardiac biomarkers such as B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP), cardiac troponin I (cTnI), C-reactive protein (CRP) or tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase I (TIMP-1) measured by x-MAP technology, as well as its capacity to reflect a pharmacological improvement of HF. We observed a significant increase of BNP, TnT and cTnI levels and a significant decrease of P-Ser(208)-TnT and TIMP-1 in the plasma of 2-month-MI rats compared with control rats with no modulation of CRP level. Circulating levels of P-Ser(208)-TnT were shown to be associated with most of the echocardiographic and haemodynamic parameters of cardiac function. We verified that the decrease of P-Ser(208)-TnT was not because of an excess of phosphatase activity in plasma of HF rats. Two-month-MI rats treated with the heart rate reducing agent ivabradine had improved LV function and increased plasma levels of P-Ser(208)-TnT. Thus, circulating phosphorylated troponin T is a highly sensitive biological indicator of cardiac dysfunction and has the potentiality of a new biomarker of HF post-MI, and of a surrogate marker for the efficacy of a successful treatment of HF.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent studies have suggested that the microRNAs miR-133a and miR-423-5p may serve as useful biomarkers in patients with left ventricular (LV) heart failure or with LV remodeling after myocardial infarction (MI). These results were however obtained in small series of patients and control subjects were used as reference groups. Whether these microRNAs may be indicators of the degree of LV remodeling after MI is unknown. METHODS 246 patients with a first anterior Q-wave MI were included. Serial echocardiographic studies were performed at hospital discharge, 3 months, and 1 year after MI and analyzed at a core laboratory. We investigated the temporal profile (baseline, 1, 3 and 12 months) of circulating miR-133a and miR-423-5p and their relations with cardiac biomarkers (B-type natriuretic peptide, C-reactive protein, and cardiac troponin I) and LV remodeling during the 1 year follow-up. RESULTS There were time-dependent changes in the levels of circulating miR-133a and miR-423-5p with significant increase of miR-133a at 12 months compared to 3 months and significant increase of miR-423-5p at 1, 3, and 12 months compared to baseline. However, miR-133a and miR-423-5p were not associated with indices of LV function and LV remodeling serially assessed during a 1 year period after an acute anterior MI, nor with B-type natriuretic peptide. CONCLUSIONS Circulating levels of miR-133a and miR-423-5p are not useful biomarkers of LV remodeling after MI.

Abstract
SELDI-TOF and depletion of major blood proteins is one of the most promising approaches for accessing low-abundance biomarkers. The use of combinatorial peptide ligand library (CPLL) for selecting the low-abundance proteins and of liquid-phase isoelectric focusing for purifying the corresponding proteins was tested in plasma or serum from patients with myocardial infarction (MI). Here, we describe the SELDI profiling of CPLL-treated plasma to select low-abundance proteins in plasma and the strategy for purification and mass spectrometry identification. This approach shows the potential to select and identify candidate biomarkers in patients with left ventricular remodeling after MI.

Abstract
Thoracic aortic aneurysm is a pathological local dilatation of the aorta, potentially leading to aortic rupture or dissection. The disease is a common complication of patients with bicuspid aortic valve, a congenital disorder present in 1-2% of the population. Using two dimensional fluorescence difference gel electrophoresis proteomics followed by mRNA expression, and alternative splicing analysis of the identified proteins, differences in dilated and nondilated aorta tissues between 44 patients with bicuspid and tricuspid valves was examined. The pattern of protein expression was successfully validated with LC-MS/MS. A multivariate analysis of protein expression data revealed diverging protein expression fingerprints in patients with tricuspid compared with the patients with bicuspid aortic valves. From 302 protein spots included in the analysis, 69 and 38 spots were differentially expressed between dilated and nondilated aorta specifically in patients with tricuspid and bicuspid aortic valve, respectively. 92 protein spots were differentially expressed between dilated and nondilated aorta in both phenotypes. Similarly, mRNA expression together with alternative splicing analysis of the identified proteins also showed diverging fingerprints in the two patient groups. Differential splicing was abundant but the expression levels of differentially spliced mRNA transcripts were low compared with the wild type transcript and there was no correlation between splicing and the number of spots. Therefore, the different spots are likely to represent post-translational modifications. The identification of differentially expressed proteins suggests that dilatation in patients with a tricuspid aortic valve involves inflammatory processes whereas aortic aneurysm in patients with BAV may be the consequence of impaired repair capacity. The results imply that aortic aneurysm formation in patients with bicuspid and tricuspid aortic valves involve different biological pathways leading to the same phenotype.

Abstract
Left ventricular (LV) remodeling after myocardial infarction (MI) indicates a high risk of heart failure and death, but LV remodeling remains difficult to predict. Biomarkers may help to refine risk stratification for a more personalized medical approach. They may also shed light on the pathophysiologic processes involved. We performed a systematic review of the published evidence about the association of circulating biomarkers with LV remodeling after MI. We selected 59 publications. Overall, these studies examined 112 relations between 52 different biomarkers and LV remodeling. The biomarkers most consistently associated with LV remodeling were involved in extracellular matrix turnover or neurohormonal activation: matrix metalloproteinase-9, collagen peptides, and B-type natriuretic peptide. This review underscores the vitality of the research on LV remodeling but concludes that the ideal biomarker has not yet been identified. To reach this goal, future studies will have to be larger, have standardized imaging end points, and include replication populations to define optimal cutoffs for LV remodeling prediction. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance appears to be the best technique for LV remodeling assessment but its current availability may be a concern for recruitment for multicenter studies. Recent technologic advances will probably yield new candidate biomarkers of LV remodeling. Tests are necessary to determine whether a multimarker approach would significantly improve risk prediction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Apoptosis-related molecules may contribute to left ventricular (LV) remodeling after myocardial infarction (MI). To validate this hypothesis, we evaluated the relation between circulating plasma levels of soluble Fas ligand (sFas-L) and LV remodeling in patients post-MI. METHODS AND RESULTS This prospective multicenter study included 246 patients with a first anterior Q-wave MI. Serial echocardiographic studies were performed at hospital discharge and 3 and 12 months after MI; quantitative analysis was performed at a core echocardiography laboratory. Clinical follow-up was performed at 3 years post-MI. Blood samples to measure sFas-L were obtained at 1 month after MI. Median sFas-L level was 50.2 pg/mL. During the 1 year follow-up, LV remodeling was documented by a significant increase in LV volumes. LV end-diastolic and end-systolic volumes at baseline, 3 months, and 12 months after MI did not differ according to sFas-L levels; changes in LV volumes were not associated with sFas-L levels. By multivariate analysis, 2 variables were independently associated with LV remodeling: B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) (p=0.008) and baseline ejection fraction (p=0.02). sFas-L levels were not associated with cardiovascular death or rehospitalization for heart failure at 3 years; conversely, high levels of BNP were associated with worse clinical outcome. CONCLUSIONS Soluble Fas-L levels are not associated with LV remodeling after MI. Further research is needed to identify apoptotic markers that may be associated with outcome post-MI.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Aim As experimental studies suggest that hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) is cardioprotective after myocardial infarction (MI), this study sought to investigate relationships between circulating levels of HGF and left ventricular (LV) remodelling in patients after acute MI. METHODS AND RESULTS This prospective multicentre study included 246 patients with a first anterior Q-wave MI. Serial echocardiographic studies were performed at hospital discharge and 3 and 12 months after MI; quantitative analysis was performed at a core echocardiography laboratory. Blood samples to measure HGF, brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), and C-reactive protein were obtained at discharge and at the 1, 3, and 12 month follow-up visits. Plasma HGF levels were high at baseline, decreased at 1 month, and remained stable thereafter. In the post-MI period (at 3 and 12 months), HGF levels were positively associated with LV volumes, wall motion systolic index, E/Ea, and BNP; and negatively with LV ejection fraction. High HGF levels were associated with higher C-reactive protein levels. Multivariate analysis showed that both BNP (P < 0.0001) and C-reactive protein (P < 0.0001) were independently associated with HGF levels at 3 and 12 months. Patients who died or were rehospitalized for heart failure during follow-up had higher HGF levels at 1 month (P = 0.0006), 3 months (P = 0.018), and 1 year (P = 0.006) after MI. CONCLUSIONS Circulating HGF levels correlate with all markers of LV remodelling after MI and are associated with rehospitalization for heart failure.

Abstract
Heart failure (HF) remains a severe disease with a poor prognosis. HF biomarkers may include demographic features, cardiac imaging, or genetic polymorphisms but this term is commonly applied to circulating serum or plasma analytes. Biomarkers may have at least three clinical uses in the context of HF: diagnosis, risk stratification, and guidance in the selection of therapy. Proteomic studies on HF biomarkers can be designed as case/control using clinical endpoints; alternatively, left ventricular remodeling can be used as a surrogate endpoint. The type of samples (tissue, cells, serum or plasma) used for proteomic analysis is a key factor in the research of biomarkers. Since the final aim is the discovery of circulating biomarkers, and since plasma and serum samples are easily accessible, proteomic analysis is frequently used for blood samples. However, standardization of sampling and access to low-abundance proteins remains problematic. Although, proteomics is playing a major role in the discovery phase of biomarkers, validation in independent populations is necessary by using more specific methods. The knowledge of new HF biomarkers may allow a more personalized medicine in the future.

Abstract
Depletion of major blood proteins is one of the most promising approaches to accessing low-abundance biomarkers. This study compared the use of combinatorial peptide ligand library (CPLL) and albumin and immunoglobulins (IgGs) depletion technology for accessing these low-abundance proteins in plasma using 2-DE in an acidic restricted pH range (4-7). Compared with native plasma, both techniques enlarge the visibility of other proteins than albumin and IgG, but there were marked differences in their composition. An increase of the number of spots was detected compared with native plasma (157 spots) with 427 and 557 spots, respectively, detected with albumin and IgG depletion, and CPLL treatment. We selected 70 spots to be identified by MALDI-TOF related to their absence in the 2-D gels from native or albumin and IgG-depleted plasma. The 42 spots identified corresponded to 24 different proteins, with more than half of the proteins which did not belong to the major plasma proteins. CPLL treatment allowed the accessibility to proteolytic fragments obtained from major plasma proteins. We found a large superiority of the CPLL approach over the albumin and IgG depletion process. These findings show the utility of depleting major blood proteins to be able to access low-abundance proteins and the potential of CPLL to select and identify candidate biomarkers in clinical studies.

Abstract
Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) are defined by an increased aortic diameter and characterized by impairment of the extracellular matrix, macrophages infiltration and decreased density of smooth muscle cells. Our aim is to identify the key molecules involved in the pathogenesis of AAAs. This study investigated transcriptomic and proteomic profiles of macrophages from AAA patients (>50 mm aortic diameter) (n = 24) and peripheral arterial occlusion (PAO) patients without AAA detected (n = 18), who both needed a surgery. An antibody protein microarray, generated by printing antibodies onto membranes against proteins selected from the transcriptomic and proteomic analysis, was performed to validate the proteins differentially expressed specifically in macrophages and plasma from the same patients. We found a restricted number of proteins differentially expressed between AAA and PAO patients: TIMP-3, ADAMTS5, and ADAMTS8 that differ significantly in plasma of AAA patients compared to PAO patients, as found in the macrophages. In contrast to plasma MMP-9, soluble glycoprotein V (sGPV) and plasmin-antiplasmin complex levels, plasma TIMP-3 levels were not correlated to AAA size but interestingly correlated to sGPV, a platelet activation marker. Combining transcriptomic and proteomic is a valid approach to identify diseases causing proteins and potential biomarkers.

Abstract
The aims of this study were to clarify the prevalence and the risk factors for unsuspected abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) in patients who underwent coronary artery bypass grafting for severe coronary artery disease and to identify the most at risk patients for AAA. Among 217 patients (189 men, mean age 64 +/- 11 years), asymptomatic AAAs, as prospectively identified by echocardiography, were found in 15 patients (6.9%). All patients with AAAs were men and smokers or past smokers. Factors significantly associated by univariate analysis with asymptomatic AAA presence were smoking (p = 0.003), symptomatic peripheral artery disease (p = 0.006), significant carotid artery stenosis (p = 0.007), and larger femoral and popliteal diameters (p = 0.008 and p = 0.0012, respectively). The other classic demographic, clinical, and biologic features were equally distributed among patients. In conclusion, in patients who underwent coronary artery bypass grafting who were men and aged <75 years with smoking histories, the prevalence of AAA was as high as 24% when they had concomitant peripheral arterial disease and/or carotid artery stenosis (vs 4.4% in the absence of either condition, p = 0.007), justifying consideration of AAA screening in this subgroup of in-hospital patients.

Abstract
AIMS Chronic heart failure following myocardial infarction (MI) is characterized by progressive left ventricular remodelling (LVR). Despite significant improvements in MI management, LVR remains a frequent complication. Although several risk factors have been identified, such as infarct size, LVR is difficult to predict in clinical practice. METHODS AND RESULTS Using a rat model of MI and phosphoproteomic technology, we discovered that remodelling is associated with decreased levels of myocardial and plasma serine(208)-phosphorylated troponin T (TnT). To confirm the association in human plasma, we developed new specific polyclonal antibodies against human/rat serine(207/208)-phosphorylated TnT and tested plasma obtained in the first week after MI from patients with low, intermediate, and high remodelling a year later. We observed a significant decrease of serine(207)-phosphorylated TnT and of the serine(207)-phosphorylated TnT/total TnT ratio in those with intermediate or high LVR. These differences remained statistically significant when adjusted for other determinants of LVR. In contrast, baseline B-type natriuretic peptide levels were not associated with LVR. CONCLUSION The level of circulating phosphorylated TnT could be a new biomarker of LVR.

Abstract
PURPOSE Depletion of major blood proteins is one of the most promising approaches to accessing low abundance biomarkers for proteomics studies. The use of combinatorial peptide ligand library (CPLL) for accessing these low abundance proteins in plasma from patients with a myocardial infarction (MI) was tested to identify candidate protein biomarkers of left ventricular remodeling (LVR). EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Serial blood samples of MI patients followed for one year (at inclusion, 1 month, 3 months, and 1 year) were treated with CPLL and analyzed by SELDI-TOF-MS. RESULT The use of CPLL increased resolution, with loss of most abundant plasma proteins, reproducibly and improved the intensity of low-abundance proteins. Longitudinal information allowed us to reduce by 55% the final number of peaks identified as significantly modulated throughout the 1-year follow-up after MI. Interestingly, 19 of the 26 peaks finally selected were detected only in samples treated from CPLL. The 2777 m/z peak, found in less elevated level in high remodeling patients, was identified as being DAHKSEVAHR FKDLGEENFKALVL, the N-terminal peptide (24-48 aa) generated from albumin by pepsin cleavage. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE This finding shows the potential of CPLL in accessing low-abundance proteins to select and identify candidate biomarkers in patients with LVR.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Recent studies have proven the favorable effects of angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) on cardiovascular and renal disorders. However, determinants of the response to ARBs remain unclear. We substantiated the hypothesis that genetic variants of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) have significant impacts on the response to ARBs. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Subjects comprised 231 consecutively enrolled hypertensive individuals including 45 type 2 diabetic subjects. Five genetic variants of the RAS, i.e., renin (REN) C-5312T, ACE insertion/deletion, angiotensinogen M235T, angiotensin II type 1 receptor A1166C, and angiotensin II type 2 receptor C3123A were assayed by PCR and restriction fragment-length polymorphism. A dose of 40-160 mg/day of valsartan was administered for 3 months as a monotherapy. RESULTS Changes in diastolic blood pressure significantly differed between genotypes of REN C-5312T: 10.7-mmHg reduction (from 95.9 +/- 12.9 to 85.2 +/- 11.4) in CC versus 7.0-mmHg reduction (from 94.7 +/- 14.0 to 87.7 +/- 12.6) in CT/TT (P = 0.02 for interactive effects of valsartan and genotype). Responder rates also differed between the genotypes: 72.8% in CC versus 58.0% in CT/TT (P = 0.03). Univariate analysis indicated a significant association of response to valsartan with blood pressure, diabetes, plasma aldosterone concentration, and CC homozygotes of REN C-5312T. Finally, multiple logistic regression analysis revealed that systolic blood pressure, CC homozygotes of REN C-5312T, and diabetes were independent predictors for responders with odds ratios (95% CI) of 2.49 (1.41-4.42), 2.03 (1.10-3.74), and 0.48 (0.24-0.96), respectively. CONCLUSIONS This study provides strong support that a genetic variant of REN C-5312T and diabetes contribute to the effects of ARBs and are independent predictors for responder. Thus, in treatment of hypertension with ARBs, a new possibility for personalized medicine has been shown.

Abstract
The development of chronic heart failure (CHF) following myocardial infarction is characterized by progressive alterations of left ventricle (LV) structure and function called left ventricular remodeling (LVR), but the mechanism of LVR remains still unclear. Moreover, information concerning the global alteration protein pattern during the LVR will be helpful for a better understanding of the process. We performed differential proteomic analysis of whole LV proteins using an experimental model of CHF in which myocardial infarction was induced in adult male rats by left coronary ligation. Among 1000 protein spots detected in 2D-gels, 49 were differentially expressed in LV of 2-month-old CHF-rats, corresponding to 27 different identified proteins (8 spots remained unidentified), classified in different functional groups as being heat shock proteins, reticulum endoplasmic stress proteins, oxidative stress proteins, glycolytic enzymes, fatty acid metabolism enzymes, tricarboxylic acid cycle proteins and respiratory chain proteins. We validated modulation of selected proteins using Western blot analysis. Our data showed that proteins involved in cardiac metabolism and oxidative stress are modulated during LVR. Interestingly, proteins of stress response showed different adaptation pathways in the early and late phase of LVR. Expression of four proteins, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, alphaB-crystallin, peroxiredoxin 2, and isocitrate dehydrogenase, was linked to echographic parameters according to heart failure severity.

Abstract
Recent improvements in therapeutic strategies did not prevent left ventricular remodeling (LVR), which remains a common event (30%) after acute myocardial infarction (AMI). We report the use of a systematic approach, based on comparative proteomics, to select circulating biomarkers that may be associated with LVR. We selected 93 patients enrolled in a prospective study. These patients with anterior wall Q-wave AMI underwent echocardiographic follow-up at hospitalization, 3 months and 1 year after AMI. They were divided into three groups (no, low, or high remodeling). Plasma samples of these patients (day 5 of hospitalization) were processed and stored at -80 degrees C within 2 h and analyzed using SELDI-TOF protein chip technology. This systematic approach allowed to select candidate proteins modulated by LVR: post-translational variants of alpha1-chain of haptoglobin (Hpalpha1) corresponding to m/z 9493, 9565, and 9623, which were more elevated in remodeling patients. The peak 9493 m/z was shown having a receiving-operating characteristic (ROC) value of 0.71 between non- and remodeling patients. SELDI-TOF approach may lead to the identification of circulating proteins associated with LVR. Whether these candidate proteins will help to identify patients who are at high risk of heart failure after AMI will have to be tested in future studies.

Abstract
Macrophages are believed to play a crucial role in atherogenesis and atherosclerotic plaque progression, mainly through their role in the accumulation of large amounts of cholesteryl ester and foam cell formation after the uptake into the arterial intima of oxidized LDL (oxLDL) particles known to be proatherogenic. The aim of this study was to use a differential proteomic approach to identify the response of human monocyte-derived macrophages after treatment with oxLDL for 24 h. Mass spectrometry analysis (MALDI-TOF) of 2D-DIGE gels made it possible to identify 9 intracellular and 3 secreted proteins that were up-regulated, 11 intracellular and 1 secreted proteins that were down-regulated, and 2 secreted proteins that were induced. This methodological approach not only confirmed the differential expression levels of proteins known to be regulated by oxLDL in macrophages, such as catalase and pyruvate kinase, but also identified oxLDL modulation of other proteins for the first time, including heat shock proteins (HSP) and Actin cytoskeletal proteins. Semiquantitative Western blot confirmed their role. The HSPs identified included heat shock cognate 71 kDa protein (Hsc70), 75 kDa glucose-regulated protein (GRP75), heat shock 70 kDa protein (Hsp70), and 60 kDa (Hsp60) proteins. These highly conserved intracellular protein chaperones, commonly seen in atherosclerotic plaques, appear to participate in protection against cellular stress. Interestingly, oxLDL also modulated several F-Actin capping proteins involved in Actin polymerization and motility: gelsolin, CapG, and CapZ. In conclusion, we have demonstrated the effects of oxLDL in the modulation of several proteins in human macrophages and established a functional profile of the human macrophage during the atherosclerotic process.
