[PMID: 38654254 PMCID: PMC11036594 DOI: 10.1186/s13019-024-02750-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2023] [Accepted: 03/29/2024] [Indexed: 04/25/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND It is essential to find reliable biomarkers for early diagnosis and prognosis of acute heart failure (AHF) for its mitigation. Currently, increasing attention is paid to the role of microRNAs (miRNAs/miRs) as diagnostic or prognostic markers for cardiovascular diseases. Since plasma miR-106a-5p has been observed to be downregulated in AHF, its value in the diagnosis and prognostic assessment of AHF deserves further exploration. Accordingly, this study analyzed the diagnostic and prognostic value of plasma miR-106a-5p in AHF patients. METHODS Prospectively, this study included 127 AHF patients who met the 2021 European Society of Cardiology Guidelines and 127 control individuals. Plasma miR-106a-5p levels were determined with RT-qPCR. Spearman correlation analysis was performed to evaluate the correlation of plasma miR-106a-5p levels with NT-proBNP and hs-CRP levels in AHF patients. All AHF patients were followed up for 1 year and allocated into poor and good prognosis groups, and plasma miR-106a-5p levels were compared. The diagnostic and prognostic value of plasma miR-106a-5p for AHF was assessed with a receiver-operating characteristic curve. RESULTS Plasma miR-106a-5p was lowly expressed in AHF patients versus controls (0.53 ± 0.26 vs. 1.09 ± 0.46) and showed significant negative correlations with NT-proBNP and hs-CRP levels. Plasma miR-106a-5p level < 0.655 could assist in AHF diagnosis. Plasma miR-106a-5p levels were markedly lower in poor-prognosis AHF patients than in good-prognosis patients. Plasma miR-106a-5p level < 0.544 could assist in predicting poor prognosis in AHF patients. CONCLUSION Plasma miR-106a-5p is downregulated in AHF patients and could assist in diagnosis and poor prognosis prediction of AHF.

Abstract
Objective To screen feature genes of heart failure patients through machine learning methods, in order to identify characteristic genes driving heart failure and investigate the progression of heart failure. Methods Heart failure patient samples were downloaded from the public database GEO (Gene Expression Omnibus), including the datasets GSE116250, GSE120895, and GSE59867. GSE116250 and GSE120895 were used as the testing set, while GSE59867 was used as the validation set. LASSO regression analysis and SVM-RFE were utilized to identify feature genes. Results Analysis showed that among the differentially expressed genes between normal and heart failure patients, 9 genes were upregulated and 10 genes were downregulated. ROC curve analysis in the training set showed that TAGLN and SGPP2 had AUC values greater than 0.7. Moreover, SDSL and SMTNL2 had even higher AUC values of greater than 0.9. However, further analysis in the validation set showed that only SDSL had an AUC value greater than 0.7. Western blot experiments, RT-PCR, and ISO-induced experiments confirmed that SDSL was highly expressed in heart failure patients and promoted heart failure progression. In addition, SDSL promoted PARP1 expression and knockdown of SDSL expression led to decreased Cleaved-PARP1 expression and reduced cardiomyocyte apoptosis. Conversely, overexpression of SDSL resulted in increased PARP1 expression and myocardial cell apoptosis. These results suggest that elevated expression of SDSL in cardiomyocytes from heart failure patients may be an important factor promoting the occurrence and development of heart failure. Conclusions Using machine learning methods and experimental validation, it has been demonstrated that SDSL is a driving gene in patients with heart failure, providing a new treatment direction for clinical treatment.

Exploring NT-proBNP, syndecan-1, and cytokines as biomarkers for transfusion-associated circulatory overload in a critically ill patient population receiving a single-unit red blood cell transfusion. Transfusion 2023; 63:2052-2060. [PMID: 37797228 DOI: 10.1111/trf.17561] [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: 05/24/2023] [Revised: 08/11/2023] [Accepted: 08/14/2023] [Indexed: 10/07/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Transfusion-associated circulatory overload (TACO) is an often underdiagnosed pulmonary transfusion complication. A biomarker could aid with the diagnosis. To date, B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) and N-terminal prohormone B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) seem the most promising biomarkers in the general hospital population. The aim was to evaluate NT-proBNP as a biomarker for TACO in a critically ill patient population and explore syndecan-1 and cytokines as other potential biomarkers. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS A retrospective study was performed using samples and clinical data collected during a prospective observational study. Adult patients admitted to the intensive care and transfused with a single red blood cell unit were included. TACO cases were retrospectively identified using a case definition based on the current TACO definition. The primary biomarker was NT-proBNP, also we measured syndecan-1 IL-6, IL-8, and IL-10. All markers were measured directly before transfusion, 1 and 24 h after transfusion. RESULTS Our cohort included 64 patients, 12 of which were identified as TACO patients. TACO patients had a lower PaO2 /FiO2 ratio and were more often ventilated following transfusion compared to non-TACO patients. There was no significant difference in NT-proBNP between pre- and post-transfusion levels nor between TACO and non-TACO patients. Syndecan-1 was significantly elevated in TACO patients both pre- and post-transfusion compared to non-TACO patients. DISCUSSION NT-proBNP was not associated with TACO in this critically ill patient population. Interestingly, levels of syndecan-1 were increased in TACO patients at baseline. More research is needed to clarify this association and its possibilities as a biomarker to predict patients at risk for TACO.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Heart failure (HF) is one of the leading causes of cardiac morbidity and mortality around the world. Our evolving understanding of the cellular and molecular pathways of HF has led to the identification and evaluation of a growing number of HF biomarkers. Natriuretic peptides remain the best studied and understood HF biomarkers, with demonstrated clinical utility in the diagnosis and prognostication of HF. Less commonly understood is the utility of HF biomarkers for guiding and monitoring treatment response. In this review, we outline the current HF biomarker landscape and identify novel biomarkers that have potential to influence HF treatment response. RECENT FINDINGS An increasing number of biomarkers have been identified through the study of HF mechanisms. While these biomarkers hold promise, they have not yet been proven to be effective in guiding HF therapy. A more developed understanding of HF mechanisms has resulted in an increased number of available pharmacologic HF therapies. In the past, biomarkers have been useful for the diagnosis and prognostication of HF. Future evaluation on their use to guide pharmacologic therapy is ongoing, and there is promise that biomarker-guided therapy will allow clinicians to begin personalizing treatment for their HF patients.

Abstract
Acute heart failure (AHF) is a life-threatening condition with high morbidity and mortality. Even though this pathology has been extensively researched, there are still challenges in establishing an accurate and early diagnosis, determining the long- and short-term prognosis and choosing a targeted therapeutic strategy. The use of reliable biomarkers to support clinical judgment has been shown to improve the management of AHF patients. Despite a large pool of interesting candidate biomarkers, endothelin-1 (ET-1) appears to be involved in multiple aspects of AHF pathogenesis that include neurohormonal activation, cardiac remodeling, endothelial dysfunction, inflammation, atherosclerosis and alteration of the renal function. Since its discovery, numerous studies have shown that the level of ET-1 is associated with the severity of symptoms and cardiac dysfunction in this pathology. The purpose of this paper is to review the existing information on ET-1 and answer the question of whether this neurohormone could be a promising biomarker in AHF.

[PMID: 37445687 DOI: 10.3390/ijms241310511] [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: 04/18/2023] [Revised: 06/20/2023] [Accepted: 06/21/2023] [Indexed: 07/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Galectin-3 (Gal-3) is a novel pro-fibrotic biomarker that can predict both right and left cardiac dysfunction caused by various cardiovascular conditions. Its expression seems to be progressively altered with evolving cardiac remodeling processes, even before the onset of heart failure. Hence, Gal-3 has been found to be an individual predictor of acute and chronic heart failure or to serve as part of an integrated biomarker panel that can foresee adverse cardiac outcomes. In congenital heart disease (CHD), Gal-3 correlates with cardiac mortality and complications in both children and adults and is proposed as a therapeutic target in order to reverse the activation of pro-fibrosis pathways that lead to heart failure. Positive associations between serum Gal-3 levels, post-operatory hospitalization rates, complications and ventricular dysfunction have also been reported within studies conducted on patients with CHD who underwent corrective surgery. Thus, this review tried to address the potential utility of Gal-3 in patients with CHD and particularly in those who undergo corrective surgery. The heterogeneity of the literature data and the lack of validation of the results obtained by the current studies on larger cohorts cannot be neglected, though. Further longitudinal research is required to establish how Gal-3 can relate to long-term outcomes in pediatric CHD.

Abstract
Psoriasis is one of the most common skin diseases in dermatological practice. It affects about 1–3% of the general population and is associated with different comorbidities, especially metabolic syndrome. Fatty-acid-binding proteins (FABPs) are a family of cytosolic proteins which are an important link in lipid metabolism and transport; moreover, they have different tissue specificity and properties. So far, ten FABPs have been discovered and seven have been investigated in psoriasis. In this review, we discuss the nature of all FABPs and their role in psoriasis. FABPs have different organ and tissue expression, and hence various functions, and may be markers of different disorders. Considering the concentration of a few of them tends to be elevated in psoriasis, it confirms the current perception of psoriasis as a multiorgan disorder associated with plenty of comorbidities. Some FABPs may be also further investigated as biomarkers of psoriasis organ complications. FABP-1 and FABP-5 may become potential markers of metabolic complications and inflammation in psoriasis. FABP-7 could perhaps be further investigated as an indicator of the neurodegenerative processes in psoriatic patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Major adverse cardiac events (MACE) in elderly patients with biliary diseases are the main cause of perioperative accidental death, but no widely recognized quantitative monitoring index of perioperative cardiac function so far.
AIM To investigate the critical values of monitoring indexes for perioperative MACE in elderly patients with biliary diseases.
METHODS The clinical data of 208 elderly patients with biliary diseases in our hospital from May 2016 to April 2021 were retrospectively analysed. According to whether MACE occurred during the perioperative period, they were divided into the MACE group and the non-MACE group.
RESULTS In the MACE compared with the non-MACE group, postoperative complications, mortality, hospital stay, high sensitivity troponin-I (Hs-TnI), creatine kinase isoenzyme (CK-MB), myoglobin (MYO), B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP), and D-dimer (D-D) levels were significantly increased (P < 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression showed that postoperative BNP and D-D were independent risk factors for perioperative MACE, and their cut-off values in the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve were 382.65 pg/mL and 0.965 mg/L, respectively.
CONCLUSION The postoperative BNP and D-D were independent risk factors for perioperative MACE, with the critical values of 382.65 pg/mL and 0.965 mg/L respectively. Consequently, timely monitoring and effective maintenance of perioperative cardiac function stability are of great clinical significance to further improve the perioperative safety of elderly patients with biliary diseases.

Association of serum sclerostin and osteoprotegerin levels with the presence, severity and prognosis in patients with acute myocardial infarction. BMC Cardiovasc Disord 2022; 22:213. [PMID: 35546224 PMCID: PMC9092859 DOI: 10.1186/s12872-022-02654-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/26/2021] [Accepted: 05/03/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Bone-related proteins (such as sclerostin and osteoprotegerin [OPG]) are involved in the development of atherosclerosis. However, the relationship between bone-related proteins and acute myocardial infarction (AMI) has not been extensively evaluated. The purpose of this study was to assess the association of serum sclerostin and OPG with the presence, severity and prognosis in patients with AMI. Methods This study prospectively enrolled 152 patients attacked by acute chest pain. Serum sclerostin and OPG were detected within the first 24 h after AMI diagnosis by ELISA kits. The AMI predictive efficacy of sclerostin and OPG were analyzed by receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve. Univariable and multivariable linear regression analyses were performed to determine the association between bone-related proteins and scores indicating the severity of coronary artery occlusion. Moreover, prognostic values were assessed by Kaplan–Meier curves and Cox regression analysis. Results There were 92 patients in AMI group, 60 in non-AMI group. Serum levels of sclerostin and OPG were significantly higher in AMI group than in non-AMI group (all p < 0.001), which showed predictive value for the presence of AMI (all p < 0.001). The area under the ROC curve values of sclerostin and OPG were 0.744 and 0.897, respectively. A multivariable linear regression analysis demonstrated that Ln-transformed sclerostin (β = 0.288, p = 0.009) and Ln-transformed OPG (Ln-OPG: β = 0.295, p = 0.019) levels were associated with GENISINI score, independently of conventional clinical parameters. In addition, Ln-OPG levels were still positively associated with GRACE score after adjustments (β = 0.320, p = 0.001). During a 1-year follow-up, patients above the median of sclerostin levels had higher incidence of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) than those below the median (p = 0.028). It was also observed that the MACE rates were higher in patients above the median of OPG levels, though no statistic importance (p = 0.060). After adjusting conventional risk factors by multivariate Cox regression, Ln-OPG was associated with incident MACE (hazard ratio = 2.188 [95% confidence intervals 1.102–4.344], p = 0.025). Conclusions Bone-related proteins could exert a potential role in early risk stratification and prognosis assessment in patients with AMI.

Biomedicines 2022; 10:biomedicines10051085. [PMID: 35625822 PMCID: PMC9138532 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines10051085] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2022] [Revised: 05/05/2022] [Accepted: 05/06/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
The detection of cardiac biomarkers is used for diagnostics, prognostics, and the risk assessment of cardiovascular diseases. The analysis of cardiac biomarkers is routinely performed with high-sensitivity immunological assays. Aptamers offer an attractive alternative to antibodies for analytical applications but, to date, are not widely practically implemented in diagnostics and medicinal research. This review summarizes the information on the most common cardiac biomarkers and the current state of aptamer research regarding these biomarkers. Aptamers as an analytical tool are well established for troponin I, troponin T, myoglobin, and C-reactive protein. For the rest of the considered cardiac biomarkers, the isolation of novel aptamers or more detailed characterization of the known aptamers are required. More attention should be addressed to the development of dual-aptamer sandwich detection assays and to the studies of aptamer sensing in alternative biological fluids. The universalization of aptamer-based biomarker detection platforms and the integration of aptamer-based sensing to clinical studies are demanded for the practical implementation of aptamers to routine diagnostics. Nevertheless, the wide usage of aptamers for the diagnostics of cardiovascular diseases is promising for the future, with respect to both point-of-care and laboratory testing.

Abstract
Heart failure has many causes. Although new drugs, devices and technologies are available, the survival rate and prognosis of patients with heart failure remain poor, placing a significant burden on individuals and society. Attempts to improve outcomes for patients with heart failure include developing prognostic risk scores. With medical advances, however, previous heart failure risk scores are not fully applicable to current practice, particularly because of the classification as heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, heart failure with mildly reduced ejection fraction, and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. This article describes the use of risk prediction scores for heart failure patients with different clinical status and discusses their clinical applicability.

Abstract
The recent decades saw a steady growth of obesity incidence worldwide. Obesity is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and type 2 diabetes mellitus and is also associated with a shorter life expectancy. Not only hemodynamic but also hormone metabolic processes, arising from excessive accumulation of adipose tissue in human body, underlie the development of CVDs. Adipose tissue has now been proved to be a hormone-active substrate. Studies of the influence of adipokines will bring us closer to understanding cardiovascular pathogenesis and help personalize prophylactic strategies.

ESC Heart Fail 2021; 8:4465-4483. [PMID: 34609075 PMCID: PMC8652929 DOI: 10.1002/ehf2.13595] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2021] [Revised: 07/07/2021] [Accepted: 08/19/2021] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Acute heart failure (AHF) affects millions of people worldwide, and it is a potentially life‐threatening condition for which the cardiologist is more often brought into play. It is crucial to rapidly identify, among patients presenting with dyspnoea, those with AHF and to accurately stratify their risk, in order to define the appropriate setting of care, especially nowadays due to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) outbreak. Furthermore, with physical examination being limited by personal protective equipment, the use of new alternative diagnostic and prognostic tools could be of extreme importance. In this regard, usage of biomarkers, especially when combined (a multimarker approach) is beneficial for establishment of an accurate diagnosis, risk stratification and post‐discharge monitoring. This review highlights the use of both traditional biomarkers such as natriuretic peptides (NP) and troponin, and emerging biomarkers such as soluble suppression of tumourigenicity (sST2) and galectin‐3 (Gal‐3), from patients' emergency admission to discharge and follow‐up, to improve risk stratification and outcomes in terms of mortality and rehospitalization.

Abstract
Acute heart failure (AHF) is one of the burdensome diseases affecting a considerable proportion of the population. Recently, it has been demonstrated that micro-ribonucleic acids (miRNAs) can exert diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic roles in a variety of conditions including AHF. These molecules play essential roles in HF-related pathophysiology, particularly, cardiac fibrosis, and hypertrophy. Some miRNAs namely miRNA-423-5p are reported to have both diagnostic and prognostic capabilities. However, some studies suggest that combination of biomarkers is a much better way to achieve the highest accuracy such as the combination of miRNAs and N-terminal pro b-type Natriuretic Peptide (NT pro-BNP). Therefore, this review discusses different views towards various roles of miRNAs in AHF.
