Correlation of Long Non-coding RNA LncRNA-FA2H-2 With Inflammatory Markers in the Peripheral Blood of Patients With Coronary Heart Disease
description Objective: To characterize the expression of long non-coding RNA LncRNA-FA2H-2 in coronary heart disease (CHD) and its correlation with inflammatory markers.Methods: From December 2018 to December 2020, 316 patients at Henan Provincial People's Hospital who complained of chest tightness or chest pain and had coronary angiography to clarify their coronary artery conditions for definitive diagnoses were selected as the study subjects. Plasma was collected to detect white blood cells (WBCs), total cholesterol (TG), triglyceride cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), apolipoprotein A1 (ApoA1), and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α), monocyte chemotactic protein 1 (MCP-1), vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1), intercellular cell adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels were also measured using ELISA. The expression levels of lncRNA-FA2H-2 were measured using quantitative real-time PCR. The data obtained were analyzed by independent sample t-tests, rank sum tests, regression analyses, Pearson's or Spearman's correlation analyses, and receiver operating characteristic curves.Results: (1) Compared with the control group, the differences in age, sex, diabetes, smoking, drinking, body mass index (BMI), WBC, TC, and LDL-C in CHD were not statistically significant, while the differences in hypertension, TG, HDL-C, ApoA1, and CRP were statistically significant. (2) In the grouping of coronary lesion branches, patients with age, sex, hypertension, diabetes, smoking, drinking, BMI, WBC, TC, LDL-C, HDL-C, and ApoA1 differences were not statistically significant, but TG and CRP differences were statistically significant. (3) The relative expressions of TNF-α, MCP-1, VCAM-1, ICAM-1, and IL-6 were significantly upregulated in the CHD group (P < 0.001). (4) The results showed that the relative levels of TNF-α, MCP-1, VCAM-1, ICAM-1, and IL-6 between the two comparative analyses (high risk, moderate risk, and low risk groups) were statistically significant. In addition, positive correlations were found between the Gensini score and TNF-α, MCP-1, VCAM-1, ICAM-1, and IL-6 in CHD patients. (5) LncRNA-FA2H-2 relative expression in the CHD group was significantly downregulated (P < 0.001). (6) The differences in the expression levels of LncRNA-FA2H-2 were statistically significant between the two comparative analyses (P < 0.01), except between the 2-branch lesion and 3-branch lesion groups. (7) LncRNA-FA2H-2 was not associated with age, sex, hypertension, diabetes, smoking, drinking, BMI, WBC, TG, TC, LDL-C, HDL-C, and ApoA1 (P > 0.05). (8) A correlation was found between LncRNA-FA2H-2 and MCP-1, and VCAM-1, ICAM-1, IL-6, and Gensini. (9) The results indicated that the relative levels of LncRNA-FA2H-2 between the two comparative analyses (high risk, moderate risk, and low risk groups) were statistically significant. A negative correlation was found between the Gensini score and LncRNA-FA2H-2. (10) ROC curve analyses of TNF-α, MCP-1, VCAM-1, ICAM-1, and IL-6 in CHD showed the area under the curve (AUC) = 0.832 (0.77, 0.893) with a cut-off value of 290.5, a sensitivity of 73%, and a specificity of 64%; AUC = 0.731 (0.653, 0.809) with a cut-off value of 396 and with a sensitivity of 59% and specificity of 79%; AUC = 0.822 (0.757, 0.887) with a cut-off value of 264 and with a sensitivity of 72% and specificity of 83%; AUC = 0.794 (0.715, 0.874) with a cut-off value of 201.5 and with a sensitivity of 75% and specificity of 65%; AUC = 0.760 (0.685, 0.834) with a cut-off value of 328 and with a sensitivity of 55% and specificity of 90%. (11) ROC curve analysis of LncRNA-FA2H-2 in CHD patients showed AUC = 0.834 (0.688, 0.85) with a cut-off value of 3.155 and with a sensitivity of 85% and specificity of 82%. (12) Logistic analyses showed that TNF-α, MCP-1, VCAM-1, IL-6, and LncRNA-FA2H-2 were independent risk factors for CHD.Conclusions: The expression of LncRNA-FA2H-2 was reduced and inversely correlated with inflammation-related factors in CHD patients. LncRNA-FA2H-2 may have potential as an inflammatory marker for risk assessment of CHD development.
