ABSTRACT: Background
Acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) can lead to adverse cardiac remodeling, resulting in left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSd) and heart failure. Epigenetic regulators, such as microRNAs, may be involved in the physiopathology of LVSd.Objective
This study explored microRNAs in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) of post-myocardial infarction patients with LVSd.Methods
Post-STEMI patients were grouped as having (LVSd, n = 9) or not LVSd (non-LVSd, n = 16). The expression of 61 microRNAs was analyzed in PBMC by RT-qPCR and the differentially expressed microRNAs were identified. Principal Component Analysis stratified the microRNAs based on the development of dysfunction. Predictive variables of LVSd were investigated
