Abstract
Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is a significant contributor to cardiovascular mortality. Research has indicated that CA125 levels are linked to cardiovascular disease. This study aimed to explore the role of CA125 in ACS and its underlying mechanism. A retrospective study was conducted involving 34 healthy volunteers and 46 patients diagnosed with ACS. Clinical characteristics and CA125 expression were recorded and detected. Bioinformatics analysis was performed to identify miRNAs that regulate CA125. HL-1 cardiac muscle cells were subjected to oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R) to investigate the role of CA125 in myocardial injury. An ACS mice model was constructed to further explore the role of CA125 on ACS. The levels of serum creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, uric acid, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, cystatin C, and white blood cells in ACS were markedly higher than those in healthy volunteers. CA125 was up-regulated in ACS and was a target of miR-203. Injection of miR-203 agomir reduced plaque deposition and vascular thrombosis in the coronary lumen, alleviating myocardial damage. Additionally, miR-203 inhibited myocardial apoptosis and inflammation responses induced by OGD/R and ACS. miR-203 can reduce the inflammatory response by inhibiting CA125 expression, thereby improving ACS symptoms and mitigating ACS-induced myocardial injury.
期刊介绍:
Biochemical Genetics welcomes original manuscripts that address and test clear scientific hypotheses, are directed to a broad scientific audience, and clearly contribute to the advancement of the field through the use of sound sampling or experimental design, reliable analytical methodologies and robust statistical analyses.
Although studies focusing on particular regions and target organisms are welcome, it is not the journal’s goal to publish essentially descriptive studies that provide results with narrow applicability, or are based on very small samples or pseudoreplication.
Rather, Biochemical Genetics welcomes review articles that go beyond summarizing previous publications and create added value through the systematic analysis and critique of the current state of knowledge or by conducting meta-analyses.
Methodological articles are also within the scope of Biological Genetics, particularly when new laboratory techniques or computational approaches are fully described and thoroughly compared with the existing benchmark methods.
Biochemical Genetics welcomes articles on the following topics: Genomics; Proteomics; Population genetics; Phylogenetics; Metagenomics; Microbial genetics; Genetics and evolution of wild and cultivated plants; Animal genetics and evolution; Human genetics and evolution; Genetic disorders; Genetic markers of diseases; Gene technology and therapy; Experimental and analytical methods; Statistical and computational methods.
