Abstract

Objectives The aim of this study was to explore post-MI myocardial inflammation. Background Innate immune cells are centrally involved in infarct healing and are emerging therapeutic targets in cardiovascular disease, however; clinical tools to assess their presence in tissue are scarce. Furthermore, it is currently not known if the non-ischemic remote zone recruits monocytes. Methods Acute inflammation was followed in mice with coronary ligation by 18FDG PET/MRI, FACS, PCR and histology. Results Gd-DTPA enhanced infarcts showed high 18FDG uptake on day 5 after MI. Cell depletion and isolation data confirmed that this largely reflected inflammation; CD11b+ cells had 4-fold higher 18FDG uptake than the infarct tissue from which they were isolated (P<0.01). Surprisingly, there was considerable monocyte recruitment in the remote myocardium (~104/mg myocardium, 5.6-fold increase, P<0.01), a finding mirrored by macrophage infiltration in remote myocardium of patients with acute MI. Temporal kinetics of cell recruitment were slower than in the infarct, with peak numbers on day 10 after ischemia. Quantitative PCR showed robust increase of recruiting adhesion molecules and chemokines in remote myocardium (e.g. 12-fold increase of MCP-1), although levels were always lower than in the infarct. Finally, matrix metalloproteinase activity was significantly increased in non-infarcted myocardium, suggesting that monocyte recruitment to the remote zone may contribute to post MI dilation. Conclusion These studies shed light on the innate inflammatory response in remote myocardium after myocardial infarction.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
