Big Endothelin-1 as a Predictor of Reverse Remodeling and Prognosis in Dilated Cardiomyopathy.

ABSTRACT: This study aimed to investigate the predictive value of Big endothelin-1(ET-1) for left ventricular reverse remodeling (LVRR) and prognosis in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). Patients with DCM and a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤ 50% from 2008 to 2017 were included. LVRR was defined as the LVEF increased by at least 10% or follow-up LVEF increased to at least 50% with a minimum improvement of 5%; meanwhile, the index of left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDDi) decreased by at least 10% or LVEDDi decreased to ≤33 mm/m². The composite outcome for prognostic analysis consisted of death and heart transplantations. Of the 375 patients included (median age 47 years, 21.1% female), 135 patients (36%) had LVRR after a median of 14 months of treatment. An independent association was found between Big ET-1 at baseline and LVRR in the multivariate model (OR 0.70, 95% CI 0.55-0.89, p = 0.003, per log increase). Big ET-1, body mass index, systolic blood pressure, diagnosis of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and treatment with ACEI/ARB were significant predictors for LVRR after stepwise selection. Adding Big ET-1 to the model improved the discrimination (∆AUC = 0.037, p = 0.042 and reclassification (IDI, 3.29%; p = 0.002; NRI, 35%; p = 0.002) for identifying patients with LVRR. During a median follow-up of 39 (27-68) months, Big ET-1 was also independently associated with the composite outcome of death and heart transplantations (HR 1.45, 95% CI 1.13-1.85, p = 0.003, per log increase). In conclusion, Big ET-1 was an independent predictor for LVRR and had prognostic implications, which might help to improve the risk stratification of patients with DCM.

Project description:BackgroundWhen β-blockers produce reverse-remodeling in idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy, they partially reverse changes in fetal-adult/contractile protein, natriuretic peptide, SR-Ca(2+)-ATPase gene program constituents. The objective of the current study was to further test the hypothesis that reverse-remodeling is associated with favorable changes in myocardial gene expression by measuring additional contractile, signaling, and metabolic genes that exhibit a fetal/adult expression predominance, are thyroid hormone-responsive, and are regulated by β1-adrenergic receptor signaling. A secondary objective was to identify which of these putative regulatory networks is most closely associated with observed changes.Methods and resultsForty-seven patients with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (left ventricular ejection fraction, 0.24±0.09) were randomized to the adrenergic-receptor blockers metoprolol (β1-selective), metoprolol+doxazosin (β1/α1), or carvedilol (β1/β2/α1). Serial radionuclide ventriculography and endomyocardial biopsies were performed at baseline, 3, and 12 months. Expression of 50 mRNA gene products was measured by quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Thirty-one patients achieved left ventricular ejection fraction reverse-remodeling response defined as improvement by ≥0.08 at 12 months or by ≥0.05 at 3 months (Δ left ventricular ejection fraction, 0.21±0.10). Changes in gene expression in responders versus nonresponders were decreases in NPPA and NPPB and increases in MYH6, ATP2A2, PLN, RYR2, ADRA1A, ADRB1, MYL3, PDFKM, PDHX, and CPT1B. All except PDHX involved increase in adult or decrease in fetal cardiac genes, but 100% were concordant with changes predicted by inhibition of β1-adrenergic signaling.ConclusionsIn addition to known gene expression changes, additional calcium-handling, sarcomeric, adrenergic signaling, and metabolic genes were associated with reverse-remodeling. The pattern suggests a fetal-adult paradigm but may be because of reversal of gene expression controlled by a β1-adrenergic receptor gene network.Clinical trial registrationURL: www.clinicaltrials.gov.

Project description:Background: The prognosis of pediatric dilated cardiomyopathy (PDCM) is highly variable, ranging from death to cardiac function recovery. Left ventricular reverse remodeling (LVRR) represents a favorable prognosis in PDCM. Disturbance of lipid metabolism is associated with the change of cardiac function, but no studies have examined lipidomics data and LVRR. Methods: Discovery analyses were based on 540 targeted lipids in an observational, prospective China-AOCC (An Integrative-Omics Study of Cardiomyopathy Patients for Diagnosis and Prognosis in China) study. The OPLS-DA and random forest (RF) analysis were used to screen the candidate lipids. Associations of the candidate lipids were examined in Cox proportional hazards regression models. Furthermore, we developed a risk score comprising the significant lipids, with each attributed a score of 1 when the concentration was above the median. All significant findings were replicated in a validation set of the China-AOCC study. Results: There were 59 patients in the discovery set and 24 patients in the validation set. LVRR was observed in 27 patients (32.5%). After adjusting for age, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), and left ventricular end-diastolic dimension (LVEDD) z-score, lysophosphatidic acids (LysoPA) 16:0, LysoPA 18:2, LysoPA 18:1, and LysoPA 18:0 were significantly associated with LVRR in the discovery set, and hazard ratios (HRs) were 2.793 (95% CI, 1.545-5.048), 2.812 (95% CI, 1.542-5.128), 2.831 (95% CI, 1.555-5.154), and 2.782 (95% CI, 1.548-5.002), respectively. We developed a LysoPA score comprising the four LysoPA. When the LysoPA score reached 4, LVRR was more likely to be observed in both sets. The AUC increased with the addition of the LysoPA score to the LVEDD z-score (from 0.693 to 0.875 in the discovery set, from 0.708 to 0.854 in the validation set) for prediction of LVRR. Conclusions: Serum LysoPA can predict LVRR in PDCM patients. When the LysoPA score was combined with the LVEDD z-score, it may help in ascertaining the prognosis and monitoring effects of anti-heart failure pharmacotherapy.

Project description:The current stratification of arrhythmic risk in dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is sub-optimal. Cardiac fibrosis is involved in the pathology of arrhythmias; however, the relationship between cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) derived extracellular volume (ECV) and arrhythmic burden (AB) in DCM is unknown. This study sought to evaluate the presence and extent of replacement and interstitial fibrosis in DCM and to compare the degree of fibrosis between DCM patients with and without AB. This is a prospective, single-center, observational study. Between May 2019 and September 2020, 102 DCM patients underwent CMR T1 mapping. 99 DCM patients (88 male, mean age 45.2 ± 11.8 years, mean EF 29.7 ± 10%) composed study population. AB was defined as the presence of VT or a high burden of PVCs. There were 41 (41.4%) patients with AB and 58 (58.6%) without AB. Replacement fibrosis was assessed with late gadolinium enhancement (LGE), whereas interstitial fibrosis with ECV. Overall, LGE was identified in 41% of patients. There was a similar distribution of LGE (without AB 50% vs. with AB 53.7%; p = 0.8) and LGE extent (without AB 4.36 ± 5.77% vs. with AB 4.68 ± 3.98%; p = 0.27) in both groups. ECV at nearly all myocardial segments and a global ECV were higher in patients with AB (global ECV: 27.9 ± 4.9 vs. 30.3 ± 4.2; p < 0.02). Only indexed left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (HR 1.1, 95%CI 1.0-1.2; p < 0.02) and global ECV (HR 1.12, 95%CI 1.0-1.25; p < 0.02) were independently associated with AB. The global ECV cut-off value of 31.05% differentiated both groups (AUC 0.713; 95%CI 0.598-0.827; p < 0.001). Neither qualitative nor quantitative LGE-based assessment of replacement fibrosis allowed for the stratification of DCM patients into low or high AB. Interstitial fibrosis, expressed as ECV, was an independent predictor of AB in DCM. Incorporation of CMR parametric indices into decision-making processes may improve arrhythmic risk stratification in DCM.
