Circulating miR-30a-5p as a prognostic biomarker of left ventricular dysfunction after acute myocardial infarction.

ABSTRACT: Left ventricular (LV) dysfunction after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is associated with an increased risk of heart failure (HF) development. Diverse microRNAs (miRNAs) have been shown to appear in the bloodstream following various cardiovascular events. The aim of this study was to identify prognostic miRNAs associated with LV dysfunction following AMI. Patients were divided into subgroups comprising patients who developed or not LV dysfunction within six months of the infarction. miRNA profiles were determined in plasma and serum samples of the patients on the first day of AMI. Levels of 14 plasma miRNAs and 16 serum miRNAs were significantly different in samples from AMI patients who later developed LV dysfunction compared to those who did not. Two miRNAs were up-regulated in both types of material. Validation in an independent group of patients, using droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) confirmed that miR-30a-5p was significantly elevated on admission in those patients who developed LV dysfunction and HF symptoms six months after AMI. A bioinformatics analysis indicated that miR-30a-5p may regulate genes involved in cardiovascular pathogenesis. This study demonstrates, for the first time, a prognostic value of circulating miR-30a-5p and its association with LV dysfunction and symptoms of HF after AMI.

Project description:Myocardial infarction (MI), the globally leading cause of heart failure, morbidity and mortality, involves post-MI ventricular remodeling, a complex process including acute injury healing, scar formation and global changes in the surviving myocardium. The molecular mechanisms involved in adverse post-infarct left ventricular remodeling still remain poorly defined. Recently, microRNAs have been implicated in the development and progression of various cardiac diseases as crucial regulators of gene expression. We previously demonstrated that in a murine model of pressure overload, a model of heart failure secondary to aortic stenosis or chronic high blood pressure, elevated myocardial expression of miR-199b-5p is sufficient to activate calcineurin/NFAT signaling, leading to exaggerated cardiac pathological remodeling and dysfunction. Given the differences in left ventricular remodeling secondary to post-infarct healing and pressure overload, we evaluated miR-199b function in post-MI remodeling. We confirmed that the expression of miR-199b is elevated in the post-infarcted heart. Transgenic animals with cardiomyocyte-restricted overexpression of miR-199b-5p displayed exaggerated pathological remodeling after MI, reflected by severe systolic and diastolic dysfunction and fibrosis deposition. Conversely, therapeutic silencing of miR-199b-5p in MI-induced cardiac remodeling by using an antagomir to specifically inhibit endogenous miR-199b-5p in vivo, resulted in efficient suppression of cardiac miR-199b-5p expression and attenuated cardiac dysfunction and dilation following MI. Mechanistically, miR-199b-5p influenced the expression of three predicted target genes in post-infarcted hearts, dual specificity tyrosine-phosphorylation-regulated kinase 1A (Dyrk1a), the notch1 receptor and its ligand jagged1. In conclusion, here we provide evidence supporting that stress-induced miR-199b-5p participates in post-infarct remodeling by simultaneous regulation of distinct target genes.

Project description:PurposeNitric oxide (NO) is constitutively produced and released from the endothelium and several blood cell types by the isoform 3 of the NO synthase (NOS3). We have shown that NO protects against myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury and that depletion of circulating NOS3 increases within 24 h of ischemia/reperfusion the size of myocardial infarction (MI) in chimeric mice devoid of circulating NOS3. In the current study we hypothesized that circulating NOS3 also affects remodeling of the left ventricle following reperfused MI.MethodsTo analyze the role of circulating NOS3 we transplanted bone marrow of NOS3-/- and wild type (WT) mice into WT mice, producing chimerae expressing NOS3 only in vascular endothelium (BC-/EC+) or in both, blood cells and vascular endothelium (BC+/EC+). Both groups underwent 60 min of coronary occlusion in a closed-chest model of reperfused MI. During the 3 weeks post MI, structural and functional LV remodeling was serially assessed (24 h, 4 d, 1 w, 2 w and 3 w) by echocardiography. At 72 hours post MI, gene expression of several extracellular matrix (ECM) modifying molecules was determined by quantitative RT-PCR analysis. At 3 weeks post MI, hemodynamics were obtained by pressure catheter, scar size and collagen content were quantified post mortem by Gomori's One-step trichrome staining.ResultsThree weeks post MI, LV end-systolic (53.2±5.9 μl; ***p≤0.001; n = 5) and end-diastolic volumes (82.7±5.6 μl; *p<0.05; n = 5) were significantly increased in BC-/EC+, along with decreased LV developed pressure (67.5±1.8 mm Hg; n = 18; ***p≤0.001) and increased scar size/left ventricle (19.5±1.5%; n = 13; **p≤0.01) compared to BC+/EC+ (ESV: 35.6±2.2 μl; EDV: 69.1±2.6 μl n = 8; LVDP: 83.2±3.2 mm Hg; n = 24; scar size/LV13.8±0.7%; n = 16). Myocardial scar of BC-/EC+ was characterized by increased total collagen content (20.2±0.8%; n = 13; ***p≤0.001) compared to BC+/EC+ (15.9±0.5; n = 16), and increased collagen type I and III subtypes.ConclusionCirculating NOS3 ameliorates maladaptive left ventricular remodeling following reperfused myocardial infarction.
