Plasma Exosome Profile in ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction Patients with and without Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest.

ABSTRACT: The identification of new biomarkers allowing an early and more accurate characterization of patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is still needed, and exosomes represent an attractive diagnostic tool in this context. However, the characterization of their protein cargo in relation to cardiovascular clinical manifestation is still lacking. To this end, 35 STEMI patients (17 experiencing resuscitated out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA-STEMI) and 18 uncomplicated) and 32 patients with chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) were enrolled. Plasma exosomes were characterized by the nanoparticle tracking analysis and Western blotting. Exosomes from STEMI patients displayed a higher concentration and size and a greater expression of platelet (GPIIb) and vascular endothelial (VE-cadherin) markers, but a similar amount of cardiac troponin compared to CCS. In addition, a difference in exosome expression of acute-phase proteins (ceruloplasmin, transthyretin and fibronectin) between STEMI and CCS patients was found. GPIIb and brain-associated marker PLP1 accurately discriminated between OHCA and uncomplicated STEMI. In conclusion, the exosome profile of STEMI patients has peculiar features that differentiate it from that of CCS patients, reflecting the pathophysiological mechanisms involved in STEMI. Additionally, the exosome expression of brain- and platelet-specific markers might allow the identification of patients experiencing ischemic brain injury in STEMI.

Project description:BackgroundCirculating microRNAs (miRNAs) have been found to have different expressions in different phases of acute myocardial infarction. The profiles of plasma exosome miRNAs in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) at 3-6 months postinfarction are unknown.ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to assess the profiles of plasma exosome miRNAs in patients with STEMI in comparison with healthy volunteers and to select specific exosome miRNAs related to pathophysiological changes post-STEMI.MethodsPlasma and echocardiography parameters were collected from 30 patients 3-6 months after STEMI and 30 healthy volunteers. Plasma exosome miRNAs were assessed by using high-throughput sequence (Illumina HiSeq 2500) and profile of the plasma exosome miRNAs was established in 10 patients and 6 healthy volunteers. The specific exosome miRNAs related to heart diseases were selected according to the TargetScan database. The specificity of the selected exosome miRNAs was evaluated in additional 20 post-STEMI patients and 24 healthy volunteers by using quantitative PCR (qPCR). Left ventricular remodeling (LVR) was defined using the European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging criteria according to echocardiography examination. Correlations between expression of the specific miRNAs and echocardiography parameters of LVR were assessed using the Spearman correlation analysis.ResultsTwenty eight upregulated miRNAs and 49 downregulated miRNAs were found in patients 3-6 months after STEMI (p < 0.01) in comparison with the healthy volunteers. The two least expressed and heart-related exosome miRNAs were hsa-miR-181a-3p (0.64-fold, p < 0.01) and hsa-miR-874-3p (0.50-fold, p < 0.01), which were further confirmed by using qPCR and demonstrated significant specificity in another 20 patients with post-STEMI comparing to 24 healthy volunteers [area under the curve (AUC) = 0.68, p < 0.05; AUC = 0.74, p < 0.05]. The expression of hsa-miR-181a-3p was downregulated in patients with LV adverse remodeling in comparison with patients without LV adverse remodeling and healthy volunteers.ConclusionCirculating exosome miR-874-3p and miR-181a-3p were downregulated in patients with STEMI postinfarction. Exosome hsa-miR-181a-3p might play a potential role in the development of LVR in patients with post-STEMI.

Project description:ObjectivesPatients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) that occur while already in hospital ('in-hospital STEMI') face high mortality. However, data about this patient population are scarce. We sought to investigate differences in reperfusion and outcomes of in-hospital versus out-of-hospital STEMI.Design, setting and participantsConsecutive patients with STEMI all treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) across 30 centres were prospectively recruited into the Victorian Cardiac Outcomes Registry (2013-2018).Primary and secondary outcomesPatients with in-hospital STEMI were compared with patients with out-of-hospital STEMI with a primary endpoint of 30-day major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). Secondary endpoints included ischaemic times, all-cause mortality and major bleeding.ResultsOf 7493 patients with PCI-treated STEMI, 494 (6.6%) occurred in-hospital. Patients with in-hospital STEMI were older (67.1 vs 62.4 years, p<0.001), more often women (32% vs 19.9%, p<0.001), with more comorbidities. Patients with in-hospital STEMI had higher 30-day MACE (20.4% vs 9.8%, p<0.001), mortality (12.1% vs 6.9%, p<0.001) and major bleeding (4.9% vs 2.3%, p<0.001), than patients with out-of-hospital STEMI. According to guideline criteria, patients with in-hospital STEMI achieved symptom-to-device times of ≤70 min and ≤90 min in 29% and 47%, respectively. Patients with out-of-hospital STEMI achieved door-to-device times of ≤90 min in 71%. Occurrence of STEMI while in hospital independently predicted higher MACE (adjusted OR 1.77, 95% CI 1.33 to 2.36, p<0.001) and 12-month mortality (adjusted OR 1.49, 95% CI 1.08 to 2.07, p<0.001).ConclusionsPatients with in-hospital STEMI experience delays to reperfusion with significantly higher MACE and mortality, compared with patients with out-of-hospital STEMI, after adjustment for confounders. Focused strategies are needed to improve recognition and outcomes in this high-risk and understudied population.
