A novel circulating biomarker lnc-MALAT1 for acute myocardial infarction: Its relationship with disease risk, features, cytokines, and major adverse cardiovascular events.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Long noncoding RNA MALAT1 (lnc-MALAT1) modulates atherosclerotic progression, myocardial ischemia injury, and systematic inflammation, which may be closely involved in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) pathogenesis. Thus, the current study intended to explore the relationship of lnc-MALAT1 to disease risk, features, cytokines, and prognostication in AMI patients.

Methods

This multicenter study consecutively enrolled 160 newly diagnosed AMI patients and 50 controls (angina pectoris patients). Their peripheral blood mononuclear cells were obtained to measure lnc-MALAT1 by RT-qPCR. Serum cytokines in AMI patients were detected by ELISA. In addition, AMI patients were followed up for major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE) risk evaluation.

Results

Lnc-MALAT1 was higher in AMI patients than in controls (median: 2.245 vs. 0.996, p = 0.004), and it also presented a good capacity for differentiating AMI patients from controls with an area under the curve of 0.823. Lnc-MALAT1 was positively related to C-reactive protein (p = 0.005), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (p = 0.022), cardiac troponin I (p = 0.021), and infarct size (p = 0.007), but not other biochemical indexes in AMI patients. Meanwhile, lnc-MALAT1 was positively associated with tumor necrosis factor-alpha (p = 0.001), interleukin (IL)-6 (p = 0.031), IL-17A (p = 0.042), vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (p = 0.004), and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (p = 0.021) among AMI patients. Importantly, after categorization, lnc-MALAT1 high (vs. low) was related to an elevated MACE accumulation rate (p = 0.035); furthermore, a higher lnc-MALAT1 quartile showed a trend to be linked with an increased MACE accumulation rate (p = 0.092).

Conclusion

Lnc-MALAT1 may serve as a biomarker for AMI risk, infarct size, inflammation and prognosis, but further validation by large-scale studies is needed.

Project description:ObjectiveThis study is aimed at exploring the underlying molecular mechanisms of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and provides potential clinical prognostic biomarkers for STEMI.MethodsThe GSE60993 dataset was downloaded from the GEO database, and the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between STEMI and control groups were screened. Enrichment analysis of the DEGs was subsequently performed using the DAVID database. A protein-protein interaction network was constructed, and hub genes were identified. The hub genes in patients were then validated by quantitative reverse transcription-PCR. Furthermore, hub gene-miRNA interactions were evaluated using the miRTarBase database. Finally, patient data on classical cardiovascular risk factors were collected, and plasma microRNA-146a (miR-146a) levels were detected. An individualized nomogram was constructed based on multivariate Cox regression analysis.ResultsA total of 239 DEGs were identified between the STEMI and control groups. Expression of S100A12 and miR-146a was significantly upregulated in STEMI samples compared with controls. STEMI patients with high levels of miR-146a had a higher risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) than those with low levels of miR-146a (log-rank P = 0.034). Multivariate Cox regression analysis identified five statistically significant variables, including age, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, white blood cells, and miR-146a. A nomogram was constructed to estimate the likelihood of a MACE at one, two, and three years after STEMI.ConclusionThe incidence of MACEs in STEMI patients expressing high levels of miR-146a was significantly greater than in those expressing low levels. MicroRNA-146a can serve as a biomarker for adverse prognosis of STEMI and might function in its pathogenesis by targeting S100A12, which may exert its role via an inflammatory response. In addition, our study presents a valid and practical model to assess the probability of MACEs within three years of STEMI.

Project description:Whole-genome gene expression analysis has been successfully utilized to diagnose, prognosticate, and identify potential therapeutic targets for cardiovascular disease. However, the utility of this approach to identify outcome-related genes and dysregulated pathways following first-time myocardial infarction (AMI) remains unknown and may offer a novel strategy to detect affected expressome networks that predict long-term outcome. Whole-genome microarray and targeted cytokine expression profiling on blood samples from normal cardiac function controls and first-time AMI patients within 48-hours post-MI revealed expected differential gene expression profiles enriched for inflammation and immune-response pathways in AMI patients. To determine molecular signatures at the time of AMI that could prognosticate long-term outcomes, transcriptional profiles from sub-groups of AMI patients with (n=5) or without (n=22) any recurrent events over an 18-month follow-up were compared. This analysis identified 559 differentially expressed genes. Bioinformatic analysis of this differential gene set for associated pathways revealed 1) increasing disease severity in AMI patients is associated with a decreased expression of the developmental epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition, and 2) modulation of cholesterol transport genes that include ABCA1, CETP, APOA1, and LDLR is associated with clinical outcome. In conclusion, differentially regulated genes and modulated pathways were identified that predicted recurrent cardiovascular outcomes in first-time AMI patients. This cell-based approach for risk stratification in AMI warrants a larger study to determine the role of metabolic remodeling and regenerative processes required for optimal outcomes. A validated transcriptome assay could represent a novel, non-invasive platform to anticipate modifiable pathways and therapeutic targets to optimize long-term outcome for AMI patients. The overall experimental design includes blood samples from 21 control and 31 myocardial infaction patient groups. Among the 31patients, 5 patients have recurrent events. Microarray were peformed on the blood samples and comparisons of control vs patient and patients with recurrent events vs patients without recurrent events were performed to identify differential genes related to disease or patients groups with recurrent events for the following bioinformatic analysis.

Project description:BackgroundMetastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (MALAT1) participates in the occurrence and development of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases such as stroke and coronary heart disease by regulating inflammatory reactions, programmed cell death, and other pathological processes. Previous studies revealed that the MALAT1 gene polymorphism was associated with cardiac and cerebrovascular diseases. However, the prognostic role of the MALAT1 polymorphism in major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs) remains unknown. Therefore, this study intends to explore the association between the MALAT1 rs3200401 polymorphism and MACCEs.MethodWe enrolled 617 myocardial infarction (MI) patients and 1125 control participants who attended the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from January 2010 to 2018. SNPscan™ typing assays were used to detect the MALAT1 rs3200401 genotype. During the follow-up, MACCEs were recorded. Kaplan-Meier curves and univariate and multivariate Cox survival analyses were used to explore the correlation between MALAT1 gene polymorphisms and the occurrence of MACCEs.ResultsAmong the total participants and MI patients, the frequencies of the T allele (total Participants 19.5% vs. 15.3%, P = 0.047, MI patients 20.7% vs. 14.1%, P = 0.014) and CT + TT genotypes (total Participants 37.4% vs. 28.1%, P = 0.013, MI patients 39.5% vs. 25.8%, P = 0.003) were significantly higher in subjects with MACCEs than in subjects without MACCEs. However, in control participants, the frequencies of the T allele (16.6% vs. 16.0%, P = 0.860) and CT + TT genotypes (31.4% vs. 29.3%, P = 0.760) were not higher in subjects with MACCEs than in subjects without MACCEs. In addition, among the total participants and MI patients, the Kaplan-Meier curve analysis indicated that the subjects with rs3200401 CT + TT genotypes had a higher incidence of MACCEs than CC genotype carriers (P = 0.015, P = 0.001). Nevertheless, similar results were not observed in the control participants (P = 0.790). Multivariate Cox regression indicated that compared with patients with the CC genotype, patients with CT + TT genotypes had a 1.554-fold increase in MACCE risk (hazard ratio: 1.554, 95% confidence interval: 1.060-2.277, P = 0.024).ConclusionsThe MALAT1 rs3200401 CT + TT genotypes could be a risk factor for MACCEs in MI patients, suggesting that the MALAT1 gene may become a biomarker for poor prognosis in MI patients.
