Circulating extracellular RNAs, myocardial remodeling, and heart failure in patients with acute coronary syndrome.

ABSTRACT: Background:Given high on-treatment mortality in heart failure (HF), identifying molecular pathways that underlie adverse cardiac remodeling may offer novel biomarkers and therapeutic avenues. Circulating extracellular RNAs (ex-RNAs) regulate important biological processes and are emerging as biomarkers of disease, but less is known about their role in the acute setting, particularly in the setting of HF. Methods:We examined the ex-RNA profiles of 296 acute coronary syndrome (ACS) survivors enrolled in the Transitions, Risks, and Actions in Coronary Events Center for Outcomes Research and Education Cohort. We measured 374 ex-RNAs selected a priori, based on previous findings from a large population study. We employed a two-step, mechanism-driven approach to identify ex-RNAs associated with echocardiographic phenotypes (left ventricular [LV] ejection fraction, LV mass, LV end-diastolic volume, left atrial [LA] dimension, and LA volume index) then tested relations of these ex-RNAs with prevalent HF (N=31, 10.5%). We performed further bioinformatics analysis of microRNA (miRNAs) predicted targets' genes ontology categories and molecular pathways. Results:We identified 44 ex-RNAs associated with at least one echocardiographic phenotype associated with HF. Of these 44 exRNAs, miR-29-3p, miR-584-5p, and miR-1247-5p were also associated with prevalent HF. The three microRNAs were implicated in the regulation p53 and transforming growth factor-? signaling pathways and predicted to be involved in cardiac fibrosis and cell death; miRNA predicted targets were enriched in gene ontology categories including several involving the extracellular matrix and cellular differentiation. Conclusions:Among ACS survivors, we observed that miR-29-3p, miR-584-5p, and miR-1247-5p were associated with both echocardiographic markers of cardiac remodeling and prevalent HF. Relevance for Patients:miR-29c-3p, miR-584-5p, and miR-1247-5p were associated with echocardiographic phenotypes and prevalent HF and are potential biomarkers for adverse cardiac remodeling in HF.

Project description:ImportanceMortality is high among patients heart failure (HF) who are receiving treatment, and therefore identifying new pathways rooted in preclinical cardiac remodeling phenotypes may afford novel biomarkers and therapeutic avenues. Circulating extracellular RNAs (ex-RNAs) are an emerging class of biomarkers with target-organ epigenetic effects relevant to myocardial biology, although large human investigations remain limited.ObjectiveTo measure the association of highly expressed circulating ex-RNAs with left ventricular remodeling and incident HF in a community-based cohort.Design, setting, and participantsThis is a prospective observational cohort study of individuals who were included in the eighth examination of the Framingham Offspring Cohort (2005-2008). Collected data include measurements of the left ventricle via electrocardiography, determination of circulating ex-RNAs in plasma, and incidence of heart failure. Data analysis was completed from December 2016 to June 2018.ExposuresA total of 398 circulating ex-RNA molecules in plasma were measured by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction; disease ontology analysis was also performed.Main outcomes and measuresEchocardiographic indices of left ventricular (LV) remodeling and incident heart failure.ResultsA total of 2763 participants of the Framingham Heart Study with measured ex-RNAs (mean [SD] age, 66.3 [9.0] years; 1499 [54.3%] female) were included in this study. Of this sample, 2429 to 2432 individuals had echocardiographic measures recorded (depending on the measurement). A total of 2681 individuals had HF status determined, of whom 116 (4.3%) experienced HF (median [interquartile range] follow-up, 7.7 [6.6-8.6] years). We identified 12 ex-RNAs associated with LV mass and at least 1 other echocardiographic phenotype (LV end-diastolic volume or left atrial dimension). Of these 12 ex-RNAs, 3 micro RNAs (miR-17, miR-20a, and miR-106b) were associated with a 15% reduction in long-term incident HF per 2-fold increase in circulating level during the follow-up period, after adjustments for age, sex, established HF risk factors, and prevalent or interim myocardial infarction. These 3 RNAs shared sequence homology and targeted a shared group of messenger RNAs that specified pathways relevant to HF (eg, transforming growth factor-? signaling, growth/cell cycle, and apoptosis), and shared a disease association with hypertension in disease ontology analysis.Conclusions and relevanceThis study identifies a group of circulating, noncoding RNAs associated with echocardiographic phenotypes, long-term incident HF, and pathways relevant to myocardial remodeling in a large community-based sample. Further investigations into the functional biology of these ex-RNAs are warranted for surveillance for HF prevention.
