Abstract:
AIM:To investigate the changes in parameters related to myocardial fibrosis of H2 relaxin (H2RLX) and procollagen type I C-terminal peptide (PICP),transforming growth factor-?1 (TGF-?1) level in the plasma after acute anterior myocardial infarction. METHODS:Forty-one patients with anterior myocardial infarction (MI) and 10 controls with normal coronary vessels were selected. Plasma H2RLX,PICP,and TGF-?1 levels were determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in 10 control subjects and 41 post-MI patients at day 3 and 7 post-MI. RESULTS:(1) H2RLX level at day 3 post-infarct had no difference between the patients and the controls. No marked change in H2RLX at day 3 versus day 7 post-infarct was observed. (2)The level of PICP at day 3 post-infarct was markedly increased followed by a fall at day 7 post-infarct,but was still higher than that in control. (3) TGF-?1 level,which was similar at day 3 and 7 post-infarct,was higher than that in control. (4) At day 7 post-infarct,the level of H2RLX was positively correlated with the fasting blood glucose in MI group. CONCLUSION:In early period of acute MI,profibrotic factors such as TGF-?1 expression and collagen expression increase. However,antifibrotic relaxin has no change.
