The current study aimed to explore early and reliable predictive biomarkers of HF following AMI. MethodsThe gene expression profile GSE59867 was downloaded from GEO. Array data from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) was used from 46 control patients and 111 patients with AMI at four time points: (i) first day of AMI; (ii) 4-6 days after AMI; (iii) one month after AMI; and (iv) six months after AMI. Among the 111 AMI patients, nine with HF and eight without HF were studied. CIBERSORT was used to analyze the relative proportions of immune cells in PBMCs. The proportions of immune cells in different groups were compared. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were analyzed with R language packages. ResultsThe percentages of monocytes and neutrophils increased significantly on the first day of AMI, and then decreased gradually. The percentage of regulatory T cells increased significantly 4-6 days after AMI, while the percentage of resting memory CD4 cells, CD8 T cells, and resting natural killer cells decreased significantly on the first day of AMI, and then increased gradually. Patients who developed HF had a significantly higher proportion of neutrophils in PBMCs on the first day of AMI, but had a significantly lower proportion of naive CD4 T cells. Two shared genes, interleukin-1 receptor 2 (IL1R2) and leucine-rich repeat neuronal protein 3 (LRRN3), were found to have potentially important roles in predicting the development of HF following AMI. ConclusionA higher proportion of neutrophils and a lower proportion of naive CD4 T cells in PBMCs on the first day of AMI may be correlated with the development of HF following AMI. IL1R2 and LRRN3 may exert functions in the development of HF following AMI. ER -
