ABSTRACT: Background
Recent study has shown that the transient receptor potential vanilloid 2 (TRPV2) channel was exclusively upregulated in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), and that this overexpression might be detrimental for occurrence and maintenance of AF. We aimed to characterize the expression levels of TRPV2 mRNA in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) with/without early recurrence of atrial fibrillation (ERAF) after radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA), and to find a reliable predictor for ERAF.Methods
65 patients of AF, who underwent RFCA successfully, then divided into two groups according to ERAF during following 3 months. PBMCs were isolated from whole blood by Ficoll gradient centrifugation before and after RFCA. Gene set enrichment analysis was performed to evaluate TRPV channels expression levels and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) mapping was used for pathway enrichment analysis.Results
There was no significant difference in the TRPV2 mRNA expression level between the two groups before RFCA, while without ERAF group of TRPV2 expression was markedly reduced compared to ERAF group after RFCA. Moreover, the number of TRPV2 expression was confirmed as an independent predictor for the first time through receiver operating characteristic and Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis. It should be pointed out that the above results were only used to predict ERAF, and have no predictive significance for late recurrence of atrial fibrillation according to the current data. Additionally, ERAF was inversely correlated with P wave dispersion. KEGG mapping further clustered 41 pathways, revealing that ''cyclic guanosine monophosphate-protein kinase G signaling pathway'' was significantly enriched.Conclusions
We firstly assume that downregulated expression of peripheral TRPV2 appear in patients without ERAF after RFCA. TRPV2 may thus represent a novel predictor of early phase after successful radiofrequency ablation.
