Abstract

Background: Cardiac troponin I (cTnI) and cTnT measurements are used in the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Together with troponin C (TnC), the cTnI and cTnT forms make up the ternary cTnT-cTnI-TnC (TIC) complex found within myocardium. Whether cTn occurs in the circulation after AMI as ternary TIC, binary cTnI-TnC (IC) complexes, or free troponin forms has not been thoroughly investigated. Methods: Blood samples from 10 AMI patients were collected at hospital admission and then at 12, 24, and 48 h after onset of chest pain. Serum was subjected to gel filtration chromatography and cTnT (Roche cTnT) and cTnI (Siemens Centaur UltraTnI and Beckman Access AccuTnI) concentrations were measured in the gel filtration chromatography fractions. Results: cTnT was present predominantly as free cTnT and cTnI as binary IC complex. These 2 forms were present at every time point. Lesser quantities of TIC complex (6%–32% of total cTnT and <50% of total cTnI) were detected in 4 patients at varying times. Minor quantities of a high molecular mass form of cTnI were detected occasionally. No free cTnI was found. Both cTnI assays identified a similar pattern of cTnI forms. Conclusions: After AMI, cTnI is present in serum as TIC and IC complexes. cTnT may be present as a combination of TIC and free cTnT or exclusively as free cTnT.

Statistics

Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • The peptide targets the central portion of cTnI (amino acid residues 114-144) with less susceptibility to proteolysis.

    “This specific peptide (HWQIAYNEHQWQ) not only exhibits an impressive binding affinity (Kd) of 270 pM comparable to that of antibodies37, but also targets the central portion of cTnI (amino acid residues 114–144) with less susceptibility to proteolysis and is postulated to be an optimal targeting epitope to detect all forms of cTnI present in blood circulation38–40.”

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.
