Serum Complement C1q Activity Is Associated With Obstructive Coronary Artery Disease.

ABSTRACT: Background: Complement C1q plays a dual role in the atherosclerosis. Previous studies showed inconsistent results about the association of serum C1q levels and coronary artery disease (CAD). Here, we explored the associations of serum C1q activity with CAD, coronary stenosis severity, cardiovascular biomarkers, and 1-year restenosis after coronary artery revascularization. Methods: We enrolled 956 CAD patients and 677 controls to evaluate the associations of serum complement C1q activity to the presence and severity of obstructive CAD and non-obstructive CAD. Serum C1q activity and the concentrations of laboratory markers were measured in all subjects. All the data were analyzed using SPSS22.0 software. Results: Serum C1q activity in Obstructive CAD and Non-Obstructive CAD groups was significantly higher than the control group (195.52 ± 48.31 kU/L and 195.42 ± 51.25 kU/L vs. 183.44 ± 31.75 kU/L, P < 0.05). Greater C1q activity was significantly correlated with higher total cholesterol (TC) and triglyceride (TG) levels. C1q activity was associated with an increased Odds Ratio (OR) of CAD (OR = 1.322, 95% CI 1.168-1.496, P < 0.05) and 1-year restenosis after revascularization (the highest OR = 3.544, 95% CI 1.089-12.702, P < 0.05). Complement C1q activity was not correlated with Gensini score in the Obstructive CAD group after adjustment for confounders. C1q activity has low value in predicting the incidence of CAD. Conclusion: Serum complement C1q activity is associated with obstructive CAD.

Association of C1q/TNF-Related Protein-9 (CTRP9) Level with Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Patients with Coronary Artery Disease.

Project description:BackgroundObstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is closely related to the incidence and progression of coronary artery disease (CAD), and the mechanisms linking OSA and CAD are multifactorial. C1q/TNF-related protein-9 (CTRP9) is a novel adipokine that protects the heart against ischemic injury and ameliorates cardiac remodeling. We aimed to ascertain the clinical relevance of CTRP9 with OSA prevalence in patients with CAD.MethodsFrom August 2016 to March 2019, consecutive eligible patients with CAD (n = 154; angina pectoris, n = 88; acute myocardial infarction [AMI], n = 66) underwent cardiorespiratory polygraphy. OSA was defined as an apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) ≥15 events·h-1. Plasma CTRP9 concentrations were measured by ELISA method.ResultsModerate/severe OSA was present in 89 patients (57.8%). CTRP9 levels were significantly decreased in the moderate/severe OSA group than in the no/mild OSA group (4.7 [4.1-5.2] ng/mL vs. 4.9 [4.4-6.0] ng/mL, P = 0.003). The difference between groups was only observed in patients with AMI (3.0 [2.3-4.9] vs. 4.5 [3.2-7.9], P = 0.009). Correlation analysis showed that CTRP9 levels were negatively correlated with AHI (r = -0.238, P = 0.003) and oxygen desaturation index (r = -0.234, P = 0.004) and positively correlated with left ventricular ejection fraction (r = 0.251, P = 0.004) in all subjects. Multivariate analysis showed that male gender (OR 3.099, 95% CI 1.029-9.330, P = 0.044), BMI (OR 1.148, 95% CI 1.040-1.268, P = 0.006), and CTRP9 levels (OR 0.726, 95% CI 0.592-0.890, P = 0.002) were independently associated with the prevalence of moderate/severe OSA.ConclusionsPlasma CTRP9 levels were independently related to the prevalence of moderate/severe OSA in patients with CAD, suggesting that CTRP9 might play a role in the pathogenesis of CAD exacerbated by OSA.

Association of serum complement C1q with cardiovascular outcomes among patients with acute coronary syndrome undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention.

Project description:ObjectiveTo determine the association of serum complement C1q levels with cardiovascular outcomes among patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), and evaluate the value of C1q modified by high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels as an independent predictor.MethodsAs a single-center prospective observational study, we analyzed 1701 patients who had received primary or elective PCI for ACS at Beijing Anzhen Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China between June 1, 2016 and November 30, 2017. The associations of C1q modified by hs-CRP with major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) were determined in survival analysis.ResultsPatients with the lowest C1q tertile had the highest cumulative risk of MACE (log-rank P = 0.007). In fully adjusted Cox regression models, stratifying the total population according to hs-CRP dichotomy, C1q was significantly associated with MACE in patients with hs-CRP levels less than 2 mg/L but not in those with 2 mg/L or more (P interaction = 0.02). In patients with hs-CRP levels less than 2 mg/L, with the lowest C1q tertile as reference, the risk of MACE was reduced by 40.0% in the middle C1q tertile [hazard ratio (HR) = 0.600, 95% CI: 0.423-0.852, P = 0.004] and by 43.9% in the highest C1q tertile (HR = 0.561, 95% CI: 0.375-0.840, P = 0.005).ConclusionsSerum complement C1q is significantly associated with cardiovascular outcomes in patients with ACS undergoing PCI, only when hs-CRP levels are less than 2 mg/L. This finding implicates the usefulness of C1q for the risk stratification in ACS patients with reduced systemic inflammation.

Total coronary atherosclerotic plaque burden is associated with myocardial ischemia in non-obstructive coronary artery disease.

Project description:AimWhether the total coronary atherosclerotic plaque burden is independently associated with myocardial ischemia in non-obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) is not well established. We aimed to test the association of total plaque burden quantified by coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) with myocardial ischemia in patients with chronic coronary syndrome and non-obstructive CAD.MethodsWe included 125 patients (age 62 ± 9 years, 58% women) with chronic coronary syndrome and non-obstructive CAD (stenosis < 50%) by CCTA, who were grouped according to presence or absence of myocardial ischemia by myocardial contrast stress echocardiography. Total plaque burden was quantified by CCTA as the total plaque volume in the main coronary arteries, and positive remodelling was defined as remodelling index > 1.10.ResultsPatients with myocardial ischemia (n = 66) had higher total plaque burden (847 ± 245 mm3 vs. 758 ± 251 mm3, p = 0.049) and higher left ventricular (LV) mass index (42.1 ± 9.9 g/m2.7 vs. 37.3 ± 8.0 g/m2.7, p = 0.004), while age, sex, prevalence of hypertension, diabetes, calcium score and positive remodelling did not differ between the groups (all p > 0.05). In multivariable regression analysis, total plaque burden remained associated with presence of myocardial ischemia (OR 1.02, 95% CI 1.00-1.04, p = 0.045) independent of age, sex, hypertension, diabetes, LV mass index, coronary calcium score and positive remodelling.ConclusionTotal coronary artery plaque burden by CCTA was independently associated with myocardial ischemia in patients with non-obstructive CAD. Whether plaque quantification is useful for clinical management of patients with non-obstructive CAD should be tested in prospective studies.ClinicalTrials.gov: Identifier NCT01853527.

Serum N1-Methylnicotinamide is Associated With Coronary Artery Disease in Chinese Patients.

Project description:BackgroundWe previously reported that serum N1-methylnicotinamide (me-Nam), an indicator of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase activity, is associated with obesity and diabetes mellitus in Chinese patients. However, whether nicotinamide N-methyltransferase plays a role in human coronary artery disease (CAD) remains to be elucidated. We aim to investigate the associations of serum me-Nam with CAD in Chinese patients.Methods and resultsSerum me-NAM was measured by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry in patients with (n=230) or without (n=103) CAD as defined by coronary angiography. The severity of CAD was expressed by number of diseased coronary arteries. Serum me-Nam was higher (7.65 ng/mL versus 4.95 ng/mL, P<0.001) in patients with CAD than in those without. Serum me-Nam was positively correlated with high-sensitivity C-reactive protein and negatively correlated with high-density lipoprotein before and after adjustment for potential confounding variables (P?0.002). In multivariable logistic regression analyses, compared with those in the lowest tertile of serum me-NAM levels, patients in the top tertile had the highest risks for CAD (odds ratio, 4.21; 95% CI, 1.97-8.97 [P<0.001]). After adjustment for potential confounding variables, serum me-NAM was also increased from 0- to 3-vessel disease (P for trend=0.01).ConclusionsSerum me-Nam is strongly associated with presence and severity of CAD, suggesting nicotinamide N-methyltransferase as a potential target for treating atherosclerosis in humans.

Efficacy of Coronary Calcium Score in Predicting Coronary Artery Morphology in Patients With Obstructive Coronary Artery Disease.

Project description:BackgroundCoronary artery calcium score (CACS) is an established marker of coronary artery disease (CAD) and has been extensively used to stratify risk in asymptomatic individuals. However, the value of CACS in predicting plaque morphology in patients with advanced CAD is less established. The present analysis aims to assess the association between CACS and plaque characteristics detected by near-infrared spectroscopy-intravascular ultrasound (NIRS-IVUS) imaging in patients with obstructive CAD.MethodsSeventy patients with obstructive CAD underwent coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA) and 3-vessel NIRS-IVUS imaging were included in the present analysis. The CTA data were used to measure the CACS in the entire coronary tree and the segments assessed by NIRS-IVUS, and these estimations were associated with the NIRS-IVUS measurements at a patient and segment level.ResultsIn total, 65 patients (188 segments) completed the study protocol and were included in the analysis. A weak correlation was noted between the CACS, percent atheroma volume (r = 0.271, P = .002), and the calcific burden measured by NIRS-IVUS (r = 0.648, P < .001) at patient-level analysis. Conversely, there was no association between the CACS and the lipid content, or the incidence of high-risk plaques detected by NIRS. Linear regression analysis at the segment level demonstrated an association between the CACS and the total atheroma volume (coefficient, 0.087; 95% CI, 0.024-0.149; P = .008) and the calcific burden (coefficient, 0.117; 95% CI, 0.048-0.186; P = .001), but there was no association between the lipid content or the incidence of high-risk lesions.ConclusionsIn patients with obstructive CAD, the CACS is not associated with the lipid content or plaque phenotypes. These findings indicate that the CACS may have a limited value for screening or stratifying cardiovascular risk in symptomatic patients with a high probability of CAD.

Coronary artery disease-associated genotype data in Mediterranean populations

Project description:We wanted to explore the genomic regions 1p13, 1q41, 9p21 and 10q11, which are among the labeled âtop 12 golden lociâ linked to coronary artery disease (CAD) risk, in order to see whether their geographic variation could be explained by demographic effects. To do this, we have genotyped these risk regions in a set of Mediterranean populations. Genomic DNA was extracted from blood cells using a Blood Midi kit (Omega Biotek, USA) according to manufacturer's procedures. DNA samples were genotyped for a combined set of 366 SNPs using an Illumina Custom GoldenGate Panel. SNPs were selected as a representative set of the common variation in the four genomic regions, according to the following criteria: i) average coverage of 1 SNP every 1.5 kb, ii) minor allele frequency (MAF) higher than 0.05 in CEU and TSI HapMap populations, iii) given priority to markers not in linkage disequilibrium (LD) (r2<0.8) in European populations, and iv) prioritizing markers previously associated with CAD. These criteria were applied giving preference to tag SNPs.

Statin use in outpatients with obstructive coronary artery disease.

Project description:BackgroundClinical trials have shown that statin therapy reduces cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD), even among patients with low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels <100 mg/dL. We sought to determine the extent to which patients with obstructive CAD in routine outpatient care are treated with statins, nonstatins, or no lipid-lowering therapy.Methods and resultsWithin the American College of Cardiology's Practice Innovation and Clinical Excellence (PINNACLE) outpatient registry, we examined rates of treatment with statin and nonstatin medications in 38 775 outpatients with obstructive CAD (history of myocardial infarction or coronary revascularization) and without documented contraindications to statin therapy. Among these patients, 30 160 (77.8%) were prescribed statins, 2042 (5.3%) were treated only with nonstatin lipid-lowering medications, and 6573 (17.0%) were untreated. Lack of medical insurance was associated with no statin treatment, and male sex, coexisting hypertension, and a recent coronary revascularization were associated with statin treatment. Among those not on any lipid-lowering therapy, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels were available for 51.2% (3365/6573). Among these untreated patients, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels were <100 mg/dL in 1794 patients (53.3%) and ≥ 100 mg/dL in 1571 patients (46.7%).ConclusionsDespite robust clinical trial evidence, a substantial number of patients with obstructive CAD remain untreated with statins. A small proportion were treated with nonstatin therapy, and 1 in 6 patients was simply untreated; half of the untreated patients had low-density lipoprotein cholesterol values <100 mg/dL. These findings illustrate important opportunities to improve lipid management in outpatients with obstructive CAD.

Serum Galectin-9 Levels Are Associated with Coronary Artery Disease in Chinese Individuals.

Project description:Recently, several studies suggest that galectin-9 (Gal-9) might play a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases. However, the exact role of Gal-9 in atherosclerosis remains to be elucidated.Serum Gal-9, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), interferon- (IFN-) ?, interleukin- (IL-) 4, IL-17, and transforming growth factor- (TGF-) ?1 were measured. The effect of Gal-9 on peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) was investigated in patients with normal coronary artery (NCA).The lowest level of Gal-9 was found in the ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) group, followed by the non-ST-segment elevation ACS (NSTEACS), the NCA, and the stable angina pectoris (SAP) groups, respectively. Additionally, Gal-9 was found to be independently associated with hs-CRP, lipoprotein(a), and creatinine. Notably, Gal-9 was also noted to be an independent predictor of the Gensini score. Moreover, Gal-9 suppressed T-helper 17 (Th17) and expanded regulatory T cells (Tregs), resulting in decreased IL-17 production and increased secretion of TGF-?1.Serum Gal-9 is associated with not only coronary artery disease (CAD), but also the severity of coronary arteries stenosis. Gal-9 can expand Tregs and suppress Th17 development in activated PBMC, implying that Gal-9 has the potential to dampen the development of atherosclerosis and may be a new therapy for CAD.

GDF-15 plasma levels in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease are associated with subclinical coronary artery disease.

Project description:BackgroundGrowth differentiation factor-15 (GDF-15), a cytokine associated with cardiovascular mortality, increases during chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) exacerbations, but any role in stable COPD is unknown. We tested associations between GDF-15 and subclinical coronary atherosclerosis, assessed by coronary artery calcium (CAC) score, in COPD subjects free of clinical cardiovascular disease (CVD).MethodsCross-sectional analysis of COPD participants (GOLD stages 2-4) in the COPDGene cohort without CVD at enrollment, using baseline CAC (from non-EKG-gated chest computed tomography) and plasma GDF-15 (by custom ELISA). We used multinomial logistic modeling of GDF-15 associations with CAC, adjusting for demographics, baseline risk (calculated using the HEART: Personal Heart Early Assessment Risk Tool (Budoff et al. 114:1761-1791, 2006) score), smoking history, measures of airflow obstruction, emphysema and airway disease severity.ResultsAmong 694 participants with COPD (47% women, mean age 63.6 years) mean GDF-15 was 1,304 pg/mL, and mean CAC score was 198. Relative to the lower GDF-15 tertile, higher tertiles showed bivariate association with increasing CAC score (mid tertile odds ratio [OR] 1.80, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.29, 2.51; higher tertile OR 2.86, CI 2.04, 4.02). This association was maintained after additionally adjusting for baseline CVD risk, for co-morbidities and descriptors of COPD severity and impact, markers of cardiac stress (N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide, troponin T) and of inflammation (Interleukin-6), and in subgroup analysis excluding men, diabetics, current smokers or those with limited ambulation.ConclusionsIn ever-smokers with COPD free of clinical CVD, GDF-15 contributes independently to subclinical coronary atherosclerosis.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov, NCT00608764 .
