LXR/RXR signaling and neutrophil phenotype following myocardial infarction classify sex differences in remodeling.

ABSTRACT: Sex differences in heart failure development following myocardial infarction (MI) are not fully understood. We hypothesized that differential MI signaling could explain variations in outcomes. Analysis of the mouse heart attack research tool 1.0 (422 mice; young?=?5.4?±?0.1; old?=?23.3?±?0.1 months of age) was used to dissect MI signaling pathways, which was validated in a new cohort of mice (4.8?±?0.2 months of age); and substantiated in humans. Plasma collected at visit 2 from the MI subset of the Jackson Heart Study (JHS; a community-based study consisting of middle aged and older adults of African ancestry) underwent glycoproteomics grouped by outcome: (1) heart failure hospitalization after visit 2 (n?=?3 men/12 women) and (2) without hospitalization through 2012 (n?=?24 men/21 women). Compared to young male mice, the infarct region of young females had fewer, but more efficient tissue clearing neutrophils with reduced pro-inflammatory gene expression. Apolipoprotein (Apo) F, which acts upstream of the liver X receptors/retinoid X receptor (LXR/RXR) pathway, was elevated in the day 7 infarcts of old mice compared to young controls and was increased in both men and women with heart failure. In vitro, Apo F stimulated CD36 and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)? activation in male neutrophils to turn off NF-?B activation and stimulate LXR/RXR signaling to initiate resolution. Female neutrophils were desensitized to Apo F and instead relied on thrombospondin-1 stimulation of CD36 to upregulate AMP-activated protein kinase, resulting in an overall better wound healing strategy. With age, female mice were desensitized to LXR/RXR signaling, resulting in enhanced interleukin-6 activation, a finding replicated in the JHS community cohort. This is the first report to uncover sex differences in post-MI neutrophil signaling that yielded better outcomes in young females and worse outcomes with age.

Project description:Myocardial infarction (MI) is one of the most common cardiac emergencies with high morbidity and is a leading cause of death worldwide. Since MI could develop into a life-threatening emergency and could also seriously affect the life quality of patients, continuous efforts have been made to create an effective strategy to prevent the occurrence of MI and reduce MI-related mortality. Numerous studies have confirmed that neutrophils play important roles in inflammation and innate immunity, which provide the first line of defense against microorganisms by producing inflammatory cytokines and chemokines, releasing reactive oxygen species, and degranulating components of neutrophil cytoplasmic granules to kill pathogens. Recently, researchers reported that neutrophils are closely related to the severity and prognosis of patients with MI, and neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio in post-MI patients had predictive value for major adverse cardiac events. Neutrophils have been increasingly recognized to exert important functions in MI. Especially, granule proteins released by neutrophil degranulation after neutrophil activation have been suggested to involve in the process of MI. This article reviewed the current research progress of neutrophil granules in MI and discusses neutrophil degranulation associated diagnosis and treatment strategies. Video abstract Neutrophils played a crucial role throughout the process of MI, and neutrophil degranulation was the crucial step for the regulative function of neutrophils. Both neutrophils infiltrating and neutrophil degranulation take part in the injury and repair process immediately after the onset of MI. Since different granule subsets (e g. MPO, NE, NGAL, MMP-8, MMP-9, cathelicidin, arginase and azurocidin) released from neutrophil degranulation show different effects through diverse mechanisms in MI. In this review, we reviewed the current research progress of neutrophil granules in MI and discusses neutrophil degranulation associated diagnosis and treatment strategies. Myeloperoxidase (MPO); Neutrophil elastase (NE); Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL); Matrix metalloproteinase 8 (MMP-8); Matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9).

Project description:BackgroundThe diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is missed more frequently in young women than men, which may be related to the cognitive psychology of the diagnostic process. Physicians start the diagnostic process by intuitively recognizing familiar symptom phenotypes, but little is known about how symptoms combine in individuals as unique symptom phenotypes. We examined how symptoms of AMI combine as unique symptom phenotypes in individual patients to compare the distribution of symptom phenotypes in women versus men.Methods and resultsThe VIRGO study (Variation in Recovery: Role of Gender on Outcomes of Young AMI Patients) was a multicenter, observational cohort study of 3501 young adults hospitalized with AMI. Data were collected on presenting symptoms with standardized interviews and from medical record abstraction. The number and distribution of unique symptom phenotypes were compared between women and men. Because of the 2:1 female-to-male enrollment ratio, women and men were compared with permutation testing and repeated subsampling. There were 426 interview-symptom phenotypes in women and 280 in men. The observed difference between women and men of 146 phenotypes was significant, even allowing for the greater enrollment of women (permutation P=0.004, median difference 110 under the null hypothesis of no association between sex and phenotype). The repeated subsample analysis also showed significantly more interview-symptom phenotypes in women than men (206.8±7.3 versus 188.6±6.0, P<0.001). Women were more broadly distributed among symptom phenotype subgroups than men (P<0.001). Similar findings were observed in the analysis of symptoms abstracted from the medical record.ConclusionsWomen exhibited substantially more variation in unique symptom phenotypes than men, regardless of whether the symptoms were derived from structured interviews or abstracted from the medical record. These findings may provide an explanation for the higher missed diagnosis rate in young women with AMI and may have important implications for teaching and improving clinicians' ability to recognize the diagnosis of AMI in women.
