Expression profiles of long noncoding RNAs and mRNAs in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of patients with acute myocardial infarction.

ABSTRACT: Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is the most serious type of coronary atherosclerotic diseases. The incidence of AMI in some countries increases year by year, and shows younger trend. Some study indicated that abnormal expression of lncRNAs was closely related to cardiovascular disease. The aim of this study was to examine the lncRNA expression profiles in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of patients with AMI through controlled studies.In the present study, we examined the lncRNA and mRNA expression profiles in 8 patients with AMI, with 7 NCA (noncoronary artery) subjects as controls using RNA sequencing protocol (RNA-seq) on the Illumina HiSeq 4000 platform. The differentially expressed lncRNAs were selected for bioinformatic analysis including gene ontology (GO) enrichment and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway (KEGG). Quantitative real time PCR (qRT-PCR) was used to confirm the differential expression of lncRNAs.We kept about 11.29 gigabase (Gb) high-quality sequence data while the Q30 ranged from 94.39% to 95.19% for each sample. Compared to the lncRNA expression profiles of NCA controls, a total of 106 differentially expressed lncRNAs were discriminated in AMI patients, including 40 upregulated lncRNAs and 66 downregulated lncRNAs (P?

Project description:BackgroundAcute myocardial infarction (AMI) can occur in patients with atherosclerotic disease, with or without plaque rupture. Previous studies have indicated a set of immune responses to plaque rupture. However, the specific circulating immune cell subsets that mediate inflammatory plaque rupture remain elusive.MethodsTen AMI patients were enrolled in our study (five with and five without plaque rupture; plaque characteristics were identified by optical coherence tomography). By single-cell RNA sequencing, we analyzed the transcriptomic profile of peripheral blood mononuclear cells.ResultsWe identified 27 cell clusters among 82,550 cells, including monocytes, T cells, NK cells, B cells, megakaryocytes, and CD34+ cells. Classical and non-classical monocytes constitute the major inflammatory cell types, and pro-inflammatory genes such as CCL5, TLR7, and CX3CR1 were significantly upregulated in patients with plaque rupture, while the neutrophil activation and degranulation genes FPR2, MMP9, and CLEC4D were significantly expressed in the intermediate monocytes derived from patients without plaque rupture. We also found that CD4+ effector T cells may contribute to plaque rupture by producing a range of cytokines and inflammatory-related chemokines, while CD8+ effector T cells express more effector molecules in patients without plaque rupture, such as GZMB, GNLY, and PRF1, which may contribute to the progress of plaque erosion. Additionally, NK and B cells played a significant role in activating inflammatory cells and promoting chemokine production in the plaque rupture. Cell-cell communication elaborated characteristics in signaling pathways dominated by inflammatory activation of classical monocytes in patients with plaque rupture.ConclusionsOur studies demonstrate that the circulating immune cells of patients with plaque rupture exhibit highly pro-inflammatory characteristics, while plaque erosion is mainly associated with intermediate monocyte amplification, neutrophil activation, and degranulation. These findings may provide novel targets for the precise treatment of patients with AMI.

Project description:Background:In the event of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) due to anterior large vessel occlusion (aLVO), leptomeningeal collaterals (LMCs) status is a key factor to define the severity and functional prognosis of this disease. However, the extent of LMCs exhibits substantial variability among the patients, which is genetic determined. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) expression profiles in human peripheral blood have been found to be altered after AIS. But whether there are specific lncRNAs correlated with LMC status in aLVO has not yet been investigated. Methods:Differential lncRNA expression panels in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were assessed by microarray analysis and individual quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) in three independent sets consist of 134 patients with aLVO and 73 healthy controls (HCs). LMCs Status in those patients was assessed based on baseline computed tomographic angiography (CTA). Results:Microarray analysis showed 23 differentially expressed lncRNAs in patients with poor LMCs status. After independent validations by RT-PCR, lncRNA ENST00000422956 was found to be significantly downregulated in patients with poor LMCs status. Receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) analysis revealed the area under the ROC curve (AUC) for ENST00000422956 to predict poor LMCs status was 0.749. Moreover, ENST00000422956 expression level and baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score were identified as independent predictors for impaired LMCs, and a significantly positive correlation was observed between ENST00000422956 expression level and LMCs status. Via cis-regulatory analysis, paired box 8 (Pax8) was identified as the target gene for ENST00000422956. Conclusions:The dysregulated lncRNA ENST00000422956 in PBMCs was associated with impairment of LMCs in patients with aLVO, suggesting that measurement of circulatory lncRNAs might be included as possible biomarkers for evaluation of LMCs status in AIS. More importantly, this might be the foundation for understand the potential roles of lncRNAs in LMCs formation after ischemic stroke.
