Elevated Inflammatory Plasma Biomarkers in Patients With Fabry Disease: A Critical Link to Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction.

ABSTRACT: Background Because systemic inflammation and endothelial dysfunction lead to heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, we characterized plasma levels of inflammatory and cardiac remodeling biomarkers in patients with Fabry disease ( FD ). Methods and Results Plasma biomarkers were studied in multicenter cohorts of patients with FD (n=68) and healthy controls (n=40). Plasma levels of the following markers of inflammation and cardiac remodeling were determined: tumor necrosis factor ( TNF ), TNF receptor 1 ( TNFR 1) and 2 ( TNFR 2), interleukin-6, matrix metalloprotease-2 ( MMP -2), MMP -8, MMP -9, galectin-1, galectin-3, B-type natriuretic peptide ( BNP ), midregional pro-atrial natriuretic peptide ( MR -pro ANP ), and globotriaosylsphingosine. Clinical profile, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, and echocardiogram were reviewed and correlated with biomarkers. Patients with FD had elevated plasma levels of BNP , MR -pro ANP , MMP -2, MMP -9, TNF , TNFR 1, TNFR 2, interleukin-6, galectin-1, globotriaosylsphingosine, and analogues. Plasma TNFR 2, TNF , interleukin-6, MMP -2, and globotriaosylsphingosine were elevated in FD patients with left ventricular hypertrophy, whereas diastolic dysfunction correlated with higher BNP , MR -pro ANP , and MMP -2 levels. Patients with late gadolinium enhancement on cardiac magnetic resonance imaging had greater levels of BNP , MR -pro ANP , TNFR 1, TNFR 2, and MMP -2. Plasma BNP , MR -pro ANP , MMP -2, MMP -8, TNF , TNFR 1, TNFR 2, galectin-1, and galectin-3 were elevated in patients with renal dysfunction. Patients undergoing enzyme replacement therapy who have more severe disease had higher MMP -2, TNF , TNFR 1, TNFR 2, and globotriaosylsphingosine analogue levels. Conclusions Inflammatory and cardiac remodeling biomarkers are elevated in FD patients and correlate with disease progression. These features are consistent with a phenotype dominated by heart failure with preserved ejection fraction and suggest a key pathogenic role of systemic inflammation in FD .

Project description:Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction is a clinical syndrome that has been associated with changes in the extracellular matrix. The purpose of this study was to determine whether profibrotic biomarkers accurately reflect the presence and severity of disease and underlying pathophysiology and modify response to therapy in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. Four biomarkers, soluble form of ST2 (an interleukin-1 receptor family member), galectin-3, matrix metalloproteinase-2, and collagen III N-terminal propeptide were measured in the Prospective Comparison of ARNI With ARB on Management of Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction (PARAMOUNT) trial at baseline, 12 and 36 weeks after randomization to valsartan or LCZ696. We examined the relationship between baseline biomarkers, demographic and echocardiographic characteristics, change in primary (change in N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide) and secondary (change in left atrial volume) end points. The median (interquartile range) value for soluble form of ST2 (33 [24.6-48.1] ng/mL) and galectin 3 (17.8 [14.1-22.8] ng/mL) were higher, and for matrix metalloproteinase-2 (188 [155.5-230.6] ng/mL) lower, than in previously published referent controls; collagen III N-terminal propeptide (5.6 [4.3-6.9] ng/mL) was similar to referent control values. All 4 biomarkers correlated with severity of disease as indicated by N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide, E/E', and left atrial volume. Baseline biomarkers did not modify the response to LCZ696 for lowering N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide; however, left atrial volume reduction varied by baseline level of soluble form of ST2 and galectin 3; patients with values less than the observed median (<33 ng/mL soluble form of ST2 and <17.8 ng/mL galectin 3) had reduction in left atrial volume, those above median did not. Although LCZ696 reduced N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide, levels of the other 4 biomarkers were not affected over time. In patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, biomarkers that reflect collagen homeostasis correlated with the presence and severity of disease and underlying pathophysiology, and may modify the structural response to treatment.

Project description:Importance:Nearly half of all patients with heart failure have preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) as opposed to reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), yet associations of biomarkers with future heart failure subtype are incompletely understood. Objective:To evaluate the associations of 12 cardiovascular biomarkers with incident HFpEF vs HFrEF among adults from the general population. Design, Setting, and Participants:This study included 4 longitudinal community-based cohorts: the Cardiovascular Health Study (1989-1990; 1992-1993 for supplemental African-American cohort), the Framingham Heart Study (1995-1998), the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (2000-2002), and the Prevention of Renal and Vascular End-stage Disease study (1997-1998). Each cohort had prospective ascertainment of incident HFpEF and HFrEF. Data analysis was performed from June 25, 2015, to November 9, 2017. Exposures:The following biomarkers were examined: N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide or brain natriuretic peptide, high-sensitivity troponin T or I, C-reactive protein (CRP), urinary albumin to creatinine ratio (UACR), renin to aldosterone ratio, D-dimer, fibrinogen, soluble suppressor of tumorigenicity, galectin-3, cystatin C, plasminogen activator inhibitor 1, and interleukin 6. Main Outcomes and Measures:Development of incident HFpEF and incident HFrEF. Results:Among the 22 756 participants in these 4 cohorts (12 087 women and 10 669 men; mean [SD] age, 60 [13] years) in the study, during a median follow-up of 12 years, 633 participants developed incident HFpEF, and 841 developed HFrEF. In models adjusted for clinical risk factors of heart failure, 2 biomarkers were significantly associated with incident HFpEF: UACR (hazard ratio [HR], 1.33; 95% CI, 1.20-1.48; P < .001) and natriuretic peptides (HR, 1.27; 95% CI, 1.16-1.40; P < .001), with suggestive associations for high-sensitivity troponin (HR, 1.11; 95% CI, 1.03-1.19; P = .008), plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (HR, 1.22; 95% CI, 1.03-1.45; P = .02), and fibrinogen (HR, 1.12; 95% CI, 1.03-1.22; P = .01). By contrast, 6 biomarkers were associated with incident HFrEF: natriuretic peptides (HR, 1.54; 95% CI, 1.41-1.68; P < .001), UACR (HR, 1.21; 95% CI, 1.11-1.32; P < .001), high-sensitivity troponin (HR, 1.37; 95% CI, 1.29-1.46; P < .001), cystatin C (HR, 1.19; 95% CI, 1.11-1.27; P < .001), D-dimer (HR, 1.22; 95% CI, 1.11-1.35; P < .001), and CRP (HR, 1.19; 95% CI, 1.11-1.28; P < .001). When directly compared, natriuretic peptides, high-sensitivity troponin, and CRP were more strongly associated with HFrEF compared with HFpEF. Conclusions and Relevance:Biomarkers of renal dysfunction, endothelial dysfunction, and inflammation were associated with incident HFrEF. By contrast, only natriuretic peptides and UACR were associated with HFpEF. These findings highlight the need for future studies focused on identifying novel biomarkers of the risk of HFpEF.
