Coronary artery diseases (CAD), as a leading cause of mortality around the world, has attracted the researchers’ attention for years to find out its underlying mechanisms and causes. Among the various key players in the pathogenesis of CAD cytokines, microRNAs (miRNAs) are crucial. In this study, besides providing a comprehensive overview of the involvement of cytokines, growth factors, and miRNAs in CAD, the interplay between miRNA with cytokine or growth factors during the development of CAD is discussed.

Artery Disease

Coronary artery disease is the most clinically significant manifestation of atherosclerosis and the main cause of morbidity and mortality around the world. Atherogenesis is a complex process, involving various types of cells and regulatory molecules. MicroRNA molecules were discovered at the end of the 20th century, and nowadays are the important regulators of several pathophysiological processes of atherogenesis. The review examines data on the participation of various microRNAs in the development of atherosclerosis and its main clinical manifestations and discusses the possibility of using microRNAs as diagnostic markers for these diseases.

Гены тромбообразования и фолатного обмена играют важную роль в развитии и прогрессии ишемической болезни сердца (ИБС). Однако о возможной роли полиморфных маркеров в рецидиве ИБС после чрескожного коронарного вмешательства (ЧКВ) известно недостаточно. Цель исследования: Оценить роль генетических факторов системы тромбообразования и фолатного обмена (полиморфных маркеров генов F5, F2, F13A1, PAI1, HPA1, MTHFR, FGB ), в возобновление клиники ИБС после ЧКВ. Методика: Исследование проводили с использованием выборки из 90 больных ИБС в возрасте от 40 до 75 лет: 75 пациентов после планового ЧКВ (60 мужчин и 15 женщин) и 15 лиц после экстренного ЧКВ (12 мужчин и 3 женщины). Молекулярно-генетическое исследование было выполнено с помощью комплекта реагентов «Сердечно-сосудистые заболевания СтрипМетод»® (ViennaLab Diagnostics GmbH, Австрия), выявляющие следующие варианты: F5, F2, F13A1, PAI1, HPA1, MTHFR, FGB . Результаты: В результате исследования была показана ассоциация полиморфного маркера G103T ( Val34Leu ) гена F13A1 (фактор свертываемости крови 13, субъединица A1) с развитием рецидивирующего состояния ИБС после ЧКВ. Выявлены статистически значимые различия в распределении частот генотипов полиморфного маркера Val34Leu гена F13A1 . Показано, что частота генотипа Val/Val у пациентов с осложнениями была выше, чем у пациентов без таковых: 0,700 и 0,400 соответственно (c = 7,78; p = 0,020), при этом генотип Val/Val проявил себя как фактор риска развития осложнений: ОШ = 3,50 (95%ДИ 1,37-8,93). При сравнении аллелей выявили, что частота аллеля L у больных с осложнениями была ниже, чем у лиц без таковых: 0,167 и 0,375 соответственно (p = 0,004), и носительство аллеля L уменьшало вероятность развития осложнений: ОШ = 0,33 (95%ДИ 0,15-0,72). Заключение: Носительство варианта 34V гена F13A1 , кодирующего A-субъединицу фактора свёртывания 13, предрасполагает к возобновлению клинических проявлений ИБС после ЧКВ. Genes of thrombosis and folate metabolism play an important role in development and progression of coronary artery disease (CAD). However, a possible role of polymorphic markers in CAD relapse following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is not sufficiently understood. Background. Reports have indicated an association of genetic factors generally related with thrombophilia and recurrence of symptoms for coronary artery disease (CAD) following a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) due to restenosis and in-stent thrombosis. However, the relapse can also be caused by progression of atherosclerosis and endothelial dysfunction in unoperated blood vessels. Aim: To assess the role of genetic risk factors involved in thrombosis and folate metabolism (polymorphic markers of F5, F2, F13A1, PAI1, HPA1, MTHFR, and FGB genes) in recurrence of CAD symptoms after PCI. Methods: The study included 90 patients with CAD aged 40-75; 75 of these patients had undergone elective PCI (60 men and 15 women) and 15 patients - emergency PCI (12 men and 3 women). Molecular genetic tests were performed using a CVD StripAssays® reagent kit (ViennaLab Diagnostics GmbH, Austria) to identify the following genetic variations: F5, F2, F13A1, PAI1, HPA1, MTHFR, and FGB . Results: The study results showed a significant association of the G103T ( Val34Leu ) polymorphism in the F13A1 gene with relapses of IHD after PCI. Significant differences were found in genotype distribution frequencies of the Val34Leu polymorphism in the F13A1 gene. The frequency of Val / Val genotype was higher in patients with complications than without complications, 0.700 and 0.400, respectively (c = 7.78, p = 0.020). Furthermore, the Val/Val genotype can be classified as a risk factor for complications (OR = 3.50; 95% CI, 1.37-8.93). The L allele frequency was lower in patients with complications than in those without complications (0.167 and 0.375, respectively, p = 0.004), and carriage of the L allele reduced the likelihood of complications (OR = 0.33; 95% CI 0.15-0.72). Conclusion: Carriage of the 34V variant in the F13A1 gene that encodes the coagulation factor XIII A subunit predisposes to a relapse of CAD symptoms after PCI.

Aim: Apart from the modifiable risk factors, genetic factors are believed to also influence the outcome of the coronary artery diseases (CAD). Under the genetic factors, miRNA polymorphisms, namely Hsa-miR-146a-5p (rs2910164) have become an important tool to study the mechanism that underlies the pathogenesis of this disease. Therefore, we investigated the association of miR-146a gene variations with susceptibility of coronary artery diseases. Methodology: This study was conducted on 100 CAD patients and 117 matched healthy individuals. Genotyping of the Hsa-miR-146a-5p C>G gene variation was performed by using amplification refractory mutation system PCR method (ARMS-PCR). Results: The distribution of Hsa-miR-146a-5p rs2910164 C>G genotypes observed between patients and controls was significantly different (P=0.048). Moreover, the frequency of G allele (fG) was found to be significantly higher among patients than in controls (0.36 vs. 0.25). Our findings showed that the Hsa-miR-146a-5p C>G variant was associated with an increased risk of CAD in codominant inheritance model CC vs. CG genotype (OR = 1.84, 95 % CI, 1.02-3.31; p=0.040) and (OR = 3.18, 95 % CI, 1.02-9.9; p=0.045) for CC vs. GG genotype in dominant inheritance model. Whereas the G allele significantly increased the risk of coronary artery disease (OR =1,81, 95 % CI, 1.18-2.78; p=0.006) compared to C allele. Taken together, these results demonstrated that miR-146a/rs2910164 is associated with susceptibility to coronary artery disease, providing novel insights into the genetic etiology and underlying biology of coronary artery disease. Conclusion: Our findings indicated that Hsa-miR-146a-5p rs2910164 GG genotype and G allele are associated with an increased susceptibility to Coronary Artery Disease. A larger sample size can be the key to progress in establishing the genetic co-relation of miRNA gene polymorphisms and cardiovascular diseases.

Artery Disease

Coronary artery disease (CAD) is widely recognized as one of the most important clinical entities. In recent years, a large body of accumulated data suggest that coronary artery calcification, a process highly prevalent in patients with CAD, occurs via well-organized biologic processes, rather than passively, as previously regarded. Matrix Gla protein (MGP), a vitamin K-dependent protein, emerged as an important inhibitor of both intimal and medial vascular calcification. The functionality of MGP hinges on two post-translational modifications: phosphorylation and carboxylation. Depending on the above-noted modifications, various species of MGP may exist in circulation, each with their respective level of functionality. Emerging data suggest that dysfunctional species of MGP, markedly, dephosphorylated-uncarboxylated MGP, might find its application as biomarkers of microvascular health, and assist in clinical decision making with regard to initiation of vitamin K supplementation. Hence, in this review we summarized the current knowledge with respect to the role of MGP in the complex network of vascular calcification with concurrent inferences to CAD. In addition, we discussed the effects of warfarin use on MGP functionality, with concomitant implications to coronary plaque stability.
