Urinary 11-dehydro-thromboxane B2 levels are associated with vascular inflammation and prognosis in atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.

ABSTRACT: Cyclooxygenase-derived thromboxane (TxA2) and prostacyclin (PGI2) regulate atherogenesis in preclinical models. However, the relationship between TxA2 and PGI2 biosynthesis, vascular inflammation, and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) progression in humans remains unclear. The association between stable urine metabolites of thromboxane (TxA2-M) and prostacyclin (PGI2-M), circulating levels of cellular adhesion molecules (CAMs: E-selectin, P-selectin), chemokines and C-reactive protein, and the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) were evaluated in 120 patients with stable ASCVD on aspirin therapy. Urinary TxA2-M levels were significantly correlated with circulating P-selectin (r=0.319, p<0.001) and E-selectin (r=0.245, p=0.007) levels, and associated with higher risk of MACE (p=0.043). In contrast, PGI2-M levels were not significantly associated with CAM levels or MACE. These results provide insight into the contribution of TxA2 biosynthesis to ASCVD progression in humans, and suggest that patients with elevated TxA2-M levels may be predisposed to advanced platelet and endothelial activation and higher risk of adverse cardiovascular outcomes.

Project description:BackgroundUrinary 11-dehydro-thromboxane (TX)B2 has been described as a potential predictive biomarker of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) in high cardiac risk patients. This part of LTIMI (Leukotrienes and Thromboxane In Myocardial Infarction) study aimed to evaluate the relationship between 11-dehydro-TXB2 and MACEs in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI).Methods and resultsLTIMI was an observational, prospective study in 180 consecutive patients with AMI type 1 referred for primary percutaneous coronary intervention. On admission and at follow-up visits (1 month, 1 year), 11-dehydro-TXB2 was measured in urinary samples by using high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The primary outcome was occurrence of composite MACEs during 1-year after AMI. Left ventricular ejection fraction was assessed in echocardiography on admission and at 1-year follow-up. Analyses of 11-dehydro-TXB2 (pg/mg creatinine) were performed on log-transformed data and expressed as median with IQR (Q1-Q3). 11-Dehydro-TXB2 level on admission was 7.39 (6.85-8.01) and decreased at 1 month (6.73, 6.27-7.12; P<0.001) and 1-year follow-up (6.37, 5.91-6.94; P<0.001). In univariate analysis, baseline 11-dehydro-TXB2 was higher in patients with MACEs (n=60; 7.73, 7.07-8.60) compared with those without MACEs (n=119; 7.28, 6.68-7.79; P=0.002). In multivariate regression model, 11-dehydro-TXB2 and 3 other variables (diabetes, multivessel disease, and left ventricular ejection fraction) were found to be best 1-year cumulative MACE predictors with odds ratio for 11-dehydro-TXB2 of 1.58 (95% CI 1.095-2.33; P=0.017) and area under the curve (in receiver operating characteristic analysis of 0.8). Baseline 11-dehydro-TXB2 negatively correlated with both left ventricular ejection fraction on admission (R=-0.21; P=0.006) and after 1 year (R=-0.346; P<0.001).Conclusions11-Dehydro-TXB2 predicts 1-year cumulative MACEs in AMI patients and provides prognostic information on the left ventricular performance.
