Abstract EN
Background.
High levels of Pentraxin 3 (PTX3) are reported in acute myocardial infarction (AMI).
Aim.
To investigate circulating levels and gene expression of PTX3 in patients with AMI and stable angina pectoris (AP) undergoing PCI.
Methods.
Ten patients with AP and 20 patients with AMI were included.
Blood samples were drawn before PCI in the AP group and after 3 and 12 hours and days 1, 3, 5, 7, and 14 in both groups.
Results.
Circulating PTX3 levels were higher in AMI compared to AP at 3 and 12 hours ( P < 0.001 and P = 0.003 ).
Within the AMI group, reduction from 3 hours to all later time points was observed (all P ≤ 0.001 ).
Within the AP group, increase from baseline to 3 hours ( P = 0.022 ), followed by reductions thereafter (all P < 0.05 ), was observed.
PTX3 mRNA increased in the AMI group from 3 hours to days 7 and 14 in a relative manner of 62% and 73%, while a relative reduction from baseline to 3 and 12 hours of 29% and 37% was seen in the AP group.
Conclusion.
High circulating PTX3 levels shortly after PCI in AMI indicate that AMI itself influences PTX3 levels.
PTX3 mRNA might be in response to fluctuations in circulating levels.
