Abstract:
Myocardial infarction(MI)is one of the most common cardiovascular diseases(CVD)in clinic.Its morbidity,disability rate and mortality are remain high,making it an urgent challenge to address.In recent years,a growing number of studies have found that gut microbiota and their metabolites are closely related to the occurrence and development of MI.Some gut metabolites such as trimethylamine N-oxide(TMAO)and phenylacetylglutamine(PAGln)can predict major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE),including MI.In this review,the effects of gut microbiota on MI were investigated based on microbial-gut-heart-axis(MGHA).The results showed that plasma concentrations of gut metabolites(short-chain fatty acids,TMAO,PAGln、bile acids)had significant clinical correlation with MI,and had different effects on the occurrence of MI.Additionally,drug therapy,fecal microbial transplantation,changes in living and eating habits can all affect the composition of gut microbiota and the concentration of metabolites,thus providing new insights for the treatment of MI.
