Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have emerged as essential biomolecules with variable diagnostic and/or prognostic utility in several diseases, including coronary artery disease (CAD). We aimed for the first time to investigate the potential association of five angiogenesis-related lncRNAs (PUNISHER, SENCR, MIAT, MALAT1, and GATA6-AS) variants with CAD susceptibility and/or severity. TaqMan Real-Time genotyping for PUNISHER rs12318065A/C, SENCR rs12420823C/T, MIAT rs1061540C/T, MALAT1 rs3200401T/C, and GATA6-AS1 rs73390820A/G were run on the extracted genomic DNA from 100 unrelated patients with stable CAD undergoing diagnostic coronary angiography and from 100 controls. After adjusting covariates, the studied variants showed no association with disease susceptibility; however, MIAT*T/T genotype was associated with a more severe Gensini score. In contrast, MALAT1*T/C heterozygosity was associated with a lower score. The lipid profile, and to a lesser extent smoking status, male sex, weight, hypertension, and MALAT1 (T > C) (negative correlation), explained the variance between patients/control groups via a principal component analysis. Incorporating the principal components into a logistic regression model to predict CAD yielded a 0.92 AUC. In conclusion: MIAT rs1061540 and MALAT1 rs3200401 variants were associated with CAD severity and Gensini score in the present sample of the Egyptian population. Further large multi-center and functional analyses are needed to confirm the results and identify the underlying molecular mechanisms.

Ferroptosis genes and ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction outcomes: A predictive signature.
Heliyon
January 2025
Clinical Laboratory, Chest Hospital, Tianjin University, Tianjin, 300222, China.
Objective: The aim of this paper is to discover differentially expressed genes related to ferroptosis (DEFRGs) in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and to construct a reliable prognostic signature that incorporates key DEFRGs and easily accessible clinical factors.
Methods: We did a systematic review of Gene Expression Omnibus datasets and picked datasets SE49925, GSE60993, and GSE61144 for analysis. We applied GEO2R to find DEFRGs and overlapped them among the picked datasets.
Genomic Drivers of Coronary Artery Disease and Risk of Future Outcomes After Coronary Angiography.
JAMA Netw Open
January 2025
Department of Medicine, Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts.
Importance: Disease characteristics of genetically mediated coronary artery disease (CAD) on coronary angiography and the association of genomic risk with outcomes after coronary angiography are not well understood.
Objective: To assess the angiographic characteristics and risk of post-coronary angiography outcomes of patients with genomic drivers of CAD: familial hypercholesterolemia (FH), high polygenic risk score (PRS), and clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP).
Design, Setting, And Participants: A retrospective cohort study of 3518 Mass General Brigham Biobank participants with genomic information who underwent coronary angiography was conducted between July 18, 2000, and August 1, 2023.
Analysis of Platelet Morphological Parameters as Clinical Risk Stratification in Acute Coronary Syndrome.
Catheter Cardiovasc Interv
January 2025
Department of Cardiology, The Second Hospital of Shandong University, Jinan, Shandong, People's Republic of China.
Background: Platelet activation plays a central role in the pathogenesis of acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Platelet morphological parameters, including MPV, PDW, and P-LCR, are emerging as biomarkers for predicting the severity of ACS and prognosis.
Aims: This study aims to assess the relationship between these parameters and coronary severity and to evaluate their predicting adverse outcomes.
Association of the Monocyte to High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Ratio and Neutrophil to High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Ratio With the Severity of New-Onset Coronary Artery Disease.
J Inflamm Res
January 2025
Institute of Gerontology, The Affiliated Guangzhou Geriatric Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University, Guangzhou, Guangdong, People's Republic of China.
Background: The monocyte to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (MHR) and neutrophil to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (NHR) are novel comprehensive indicators reflecting the body's inflammation and lipid metabolism. Previous studies have found that MHR and NHR are associated with the risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events and death. However, the correlation between MHR, NHR, and the severity of newly diagnosed coronary artery disease (CAD) has not been thoroughly explored.

Curr Protein Pept Sci
January 2025
Department of Cardiology, The Affiliated Hospital of Guizhou Medical University, Guiyang, Guizhou, 550004, China.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the expression characteristics and interrelationships of FNDC5 and pyroptosis-associated molecules in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of patients with coronary heart disease (CHD).
Methods: Patients were divided into stable angina (SA), unstable angina (UA), and acute myocardial infarction (AMI) groups based on different clinical symptoms. According to the Gensini score, they were then divided into mild, moderate, and severe lesion groups.
