However, the mechanisms underlying the large differences in the extent and adequacy of collateralization remain unclear. We hypothesized that shear stress-induced activation of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 could potently contribute to the development of coronary collaterals during the early phase of AMI. METHODS: We enrolled forty patients with AMI who did not receive reperfusion therapy within 24 h after the onset of chest pain and who also underwent coronary angiography (CAG) from 1 to 7 days after admission (mean duration: 3.6+/-2.2 days). The grades of the collateral development were angiographically defined and grouped according to the grade of collaterals as absent (score 0, n=20) or well-developed (score 2, n=20) collateral circulation. The plasma concentrations of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), endostatin, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), and stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1) were assessed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and then these values were compared between the two groups. RESULTS: There were no differences in the demographic and angiographic characteristics except for the number of total occlusion in culprit lesion. The plasma MCP-1 levels were significantly higher in the group with well-developed collateral circulation compared to the group with absent collateral circulation (262+/-216 vs. 151+/-88 pg/ml, respectively, p=0.043). However, the plasma levels of VEGF, endostatin and SDF-1 were not different on comparisons between the groups (VEGF; 369+/-377 vs. 324+/-363 pg/ml, endostatin; 1.74+/-1.71 vs. 1.49+/-1.15 ng/ml, SDF-1; 1806+/-508 vs. 2091+/-772 pg/ml, respectively). CONCLUSION: During the early phase of AMI, the plasma levels of MCP-1 were significantly increased in the patients with well-developed collateral circulation as compared to those patients with absent collateral circulation. These findings suggested that the shear stress-induced overexpression of MCP-1 contributes significantly to the development of coronary collaterals during the early phase of AMI. ------>tmu_sno=None ------>sno=8592 ------>authors2= ------>authors3= ------>authors4= ------>authors5= ------>authors6= ------>authors6_c=None ------>authors=Cheng JJ ------>delete_flag=0 ------>SCI_JNo=None ------>authors2_c=None ------>publish_area=None ------>updateTitle=Coronary collaterals: the role of MCP-1 during the early phase of acute myocardial infarction. ------>language=2 ------>check_flag=None ------>submit_date=None ------>country=None ------>no= ------>patent_SDate=None ------>update_bywho=None ------>publish_year=2001 ------>submit_flag=None ------>publish_month=None |
