Serum Amyloid P-Component Prevents Cardiac Remodeling in Hypertensive Heart Disease

Abstract: The potential for serum amyloid P-component (SAP) to prevent cardiac remodeling and identify worsening diastolic dysfunction (DD) was investigated. The anti-fibrotic potential of SAP was tested in an animal model of hypertensive heart disease (spontaneously hypertensive rats treated with SAP [SHR - SAP] × 12 weeks). Biomarker analysis included a prospective study of 60 patients with asymptomatic progressive DD. Compared with vehicle-treated Wistar-Kyoto rats (WKY-V), the vehicle-treated SHRs (SHR-V) exhibited … Show more

“…Thus, PTX3 and CRP were suggested to be associated with atherosclerotic lesions 20 . Serum amyloid A (SAA) was suggested to enhance the local effect and to be a more valuable biomolecular diagnosis for acute myocardial infarctions than the other APR 18 .…”

“…Both acute phase proteins have not been previously studied in response to ACE.Alpha-2-macroglobulin is a protein involved in humoral defense, and has been investigated as a marker for CVD, but data are conflicting [25,27]. Elevated serum amyloid P in blood is associated with increased angina and myocardial infarction and may play a role in cardiac remodeling [26,31]. In summary, acute phase proteins remained unchanged or returned to pre-ACE values 2 h post-ACE.…”

“…In addition, changes in expression of acute phase proteins can be used to assess tissue damage after a CVD event or physiological stress. Chronic inflammation and CVD disease risk has been associated with alteration in the production of particular acute phase proteins including C-reactive protein, ferritin, fibrinogen, procalcitonin, serum amyloid A, serum amyloid P, tissue plasminogen, α-2-macroglobin, and haptoglobin [3,19,[23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31]. Therefore, to fill the gap in the relevant literature, the present study aimed to examine the effects of ACE on a comprehensive panel of plasma inflammatory, lipid biomarkers and acute phase proteins related to CVD risk.…”
