Резюме В настоящее время нет сомнений в том, что важную роль в развитии и патогенезе сердечно-сосудистых заболеваний (ССЗ) играют микроРНК. Обнаружение существенных изменений уровня экспрессии данных молекул при различных заболеваниях позволяет рассматривать их в качестве потенциальных биомаркеров заболеваний человека, в том числе сердечной недостаточности. Изучение механизмов взаимосвязи между ССЗ и уровнем экспрессии различных микроРНК, а также установление их точных взаимосвязей с генами является актуальной проблемой и требует дальнейших исследований.
Systemic inflammation is characterized by the induction of pro-inflammatory cytokines, the increased level of which in the blood of patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) correlates with unfavorable clinical outcomes. However, it is unclear whether pro-inflammatory cytokines are the cause or the consequence of the disease progression. CHF with preserved ejection fraction and CHF with reduced ejection fraction demonstrate different inflammatory features, which suggests different degrees of pro-inflammatory pathway activation. The review deals with participation of pro-inflammatory cytokines in pathophysiological processes of CHF development, emphasizing the role of interleukin-6 activation and the effects of accompanying diseases on the course of systemic inflammation. The search for new approaches to prevention and therapy of CHF remains actual. The review presents the results of clinical trials of targeted anti-cytokine therapy which have revealed difficulties in controlling inflammation under the conditions of CHF. Identification of specific pro-inflammatory pathways in CHF pathogenesis will allow one to control inflammatory cascades, thus providing a prospective therapeutic strategy.

Early diagnosis of acute kidney injury (AKI) is an urgent problem of providing medical care to patients with acute decompensation of chronic heart failure (ADHF). Aim. To study the possibilities of previously diagnosing acute renal damage in patients with acute decompensation of chronic heart failure with reduced systolic function using biomarkers of acute renal injury. Materials and methods. The study included 60 patients (62.0±11.1 years) with HADS (BNP >500 pg/ml) and a reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LV 27.05% [23.25; 32.75], c FC III-IV NYHA). The level of creatinine, urea, uric acid, albumin in serum was determined in all patients, as well as a number of biomarkers: lipocalin associated with neutrophil gelatinase (NGAL) and cystatin C (CysC) in serum; kidney damage molecule-1 (KIM-1) and angiotensinogen (AGT) in the urine. Results and discussion. AKI is determined based on changes in serum creatinine concentration or diuresis value. The results obtained indicate a high specificity and sensitivity of the use of biomarkers for the diagnosis of AKI in patients with ADHF. NGAL AUC - 0.833 (p
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
