Is there a Correlation between Monocyte Chemoattractant Protein-1 with Autotaxin, Azurocidin-1, Apolipoprotein C-III and Elastase-2 in Male Iraqi Acute Myocardial Infraction Patients?

Abstract

Acute Myocardial infarction (AMI) is one of the important reasons of loss of life and bodily incapacity global prompt via cardiovascular diseases (CVD). AMI stimulates the innate immune system that is required to employee leukocytes to remove necrotic cells and recruit myocardial healing. To evaluate serum concentrations of Monocyte Chemoattractant Protein-1 (MCP-1), Autotaxin (ATX), Azurocidin-1 (AZU-1), Apolipoprotein C-III (APOC3) and Elastase-2 (ELA-2) in male Iraqi AMI patients and healthy controls (HCs), and explain the association of MCP-1with ATX, AZU-1, APOC3 and ELA-2 in male Iraqi AMI patients, also explore the best parameter which can use to differentiate between AMI patients. This case-control study included 84 men aged 40–68 years. Waist circumference (WC), hip circumference (HC), thoracic circumference (TC), neck circumference (NC), height, weight, age, and further covariates were obtained via an inquiry form. They were separated into two equivalent groups: the patients group and the healthy group, serum concentrations of MCP-1, ATX, AZU-1, APOC3 and ELA-2 were estimated via ELISA. Serum of MCP-1, ATX, AZU-1, APOC3 and ELA-2 concentrations were importantly greater in patients with AMI than in HCs (p< 0.001). MCP-1 concentrations were importantly linked with ATX, AZU-1, APOC3 and ELA-2 in AMI cases (p< 0.001). The greater value of MPC-1 association was with ELA-2 (r=0.592). MCP-1 exhibited the maximum value for área under curve (AUC=1) in comparison to other studied biomarkers. The present data explained the role of MCP-1, ATX, AZU-1, APOC3 and ELA-2 in AMI disease; we found they have central functions in this disease, mainly obese patients. Attention must be taken to avoid confusion among risk markers and risk factors. Great serum concentrations of MCP-1 offered important correlations between risk markers and risk factors of AMI disease.
