Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to uncover the diagnostic value of circRNA (Circ)_0051386 in acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and its predictive value for the occurrence of adverse major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs). METHODS This study included 166 patients with STEMI and 83 health donors. The expression levels of serum Circ_0051386 in these participants were quantified using real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). Additionally, the incidence of MACEs during a 6-month follow-up period after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) was collected in the STEMI patient cohort. RESULTS Before and after propensity score matching (PSM), Circ_0051386 all had higher expression levels in the patients with STEMI than the normal subjects (all p < .001)and robust diagnosis values for the STEMI (AUC = 0.766, 0.779). Kaplan-Meier curves showed the high expression Circ_0051386 group had a higher occurrence rate of MACEs during a 6-month follow-up after PCI in patients with STEMI and this phenomenon was confirmed by internal validation (all p < .05). In addition, the multivariate COX regression showed gensini score (HR = 1.020, 95% CI = 1.002 - 1.038, p = .028) and Circ_0051386 (HR = 2.468, 95% CI =1.548-3.935, p < .001)were independent risk factors of the occurrence of MACEs in patients with STEMI after PCI. Pearson analysis presented that Circ_0051386 was positively correlated with gensini scores (r = 0.33), IL-1β (r = 0.55)and TNF-α(r = 0.41). CONCLUSION Our study indicated that Circ_0051386 is a biomarker of the diagnostic for STEMI and the predictor of the MACEs in STEMI patients after PCI. Its potential role in STEMI may be the regulation of inflammation in the vascular endothelial.

Cao D, Zhou L, Hu R. Exosomes derived from BMSCs alleviates high glucose-induced diabetic retinopathy via carrying miR-483-5p. J Biochem Mol Toxicol 2024; 38:e23616. [PMID: 38069837 DOI: 10.1002/jbt.23616] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/18/2022] [Revised: 07/26/2023] [Accepted: 11/28/2023] [Indexed: 01/18/2024]
Abstract
Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a progressive disease which can cause health problem. It has been reported that bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs)-secreted exosomes could regulate the progression of DR via carrying microRNAs. Meanwhile, miR-483-5p was downregulated in DR; however, whether BMSCs-secreted exosomes can modulate DR progression via carrying miR-483-5p remains unclear. To mimic DR in vitro, ARPE-19 cells were exposed to 30 mM high glucose (HG). Exosomes were isolated from BMSCs and identified by transmission electron microscopy, nanoparticle tracking analysis, and western blot. Cell counting kit-8 assay was applied for assessing the cell viability. Flow cytometry was applied to test the cell apoptosis. Meanwhile, dual luciferase assay was used to evaluate the association among miR-483-5p and downstream target insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-1R). In addition, quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction and western blot were used for exploring the level of miR-483-5p and IGF-1R. HG significantly induced apoptosis in ARPE-19 cells, while BMSCs-derived exosomes reversed this phenomenon. In addition, inhibition of miR-483-5p expression of exosomes further aggravated HG-induced ARPE-19 cell apoptosis. Meanwhile, IGF-1R was the downstream messenger RNA of miR-483-5p, and IGF-1R silencing could reverse the effect of exosomes with downregulated miR-483-5p on HG-induced cell injury. Exosomes derived from BMSCs inhibit the progression of DR via carrying miR-483-5p. Thus, our study might provide a theoretical basis for discovering new strategies against DR.

Novel Biomarkers and Their Role in the Diagnosis and Prognosis of Acute Coronary Syndrome. Life (Basel) 2023; 13:1992. [PMID: 37895374 PMCID: PMC10608753 DOI: 10.3390/life13101992] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/04/2023] [Revised: 09/23/2023] [Accepted: 09/28/2023] [Indexed: 10/29/2023] Open
Abstract
The burden of cardiovascular diseases and the critical role of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in their progression underscore the need for effective diagnostic and prognostic tools. Biomarkers have emerged as crucial instruments for ACS diagnosis, risk stratification, and prognosis assessment. Among these, high-sensitivity troponin (hs-cTn) has revolutionized ACS diagnosis due to its superior sensitivity and negative predictive value. However, challenges regarding specificity, standardization, and interpretation persist. Beyond troponins, various biomarkers reflecting myocardial injury, neurohormonal activation, inflammation, thrombosis, and other pathways are being explored to refine ACS management. This review article comprehensively explores the landscape of clinically used biomarkers intricately involved in the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and prognosis of ACS (i.e., troponins, creatine kinase MB (CK-MB), B-type natriuretic peptides (BNP), copeptin, C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6), d-dimers, fibrinogen), especially focusing on the prognostic role of natriuretic peptides and of inflammatory indices. Research data on novel biomarkers (i.e., endocan, galectin, soluble suppression of tumorigenicity (sST2), microRNAs (miRNAs), soluble oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor-1 (sLOX-1), F2 isoprostanes, and growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF-15)) are further analyzed, aiming to shed light on the multiplicity of pathophysiologic mechanisms implicated in the evolution of ACS. By elucidating the complex interplay of these biomarkers in ACS pathophysiology, diagnosis, and outcomes, this review aims to enhance our understanding of the evolving trajectory and advancements in ACS management. However, further research is necessary to establish the clinical utility and integration of these biomarkers into routine practice to improve patient outcomes.
