Accordingly, we compared gene expression in pericoronary adipose tissue (PCAT) in patients with advanced coronary artery disease (CAD) and non-CAD controls.Patients and Methods: PCAT samples were collected during coronary bypass grafting from CAD patients (n = 21) and controls undergoing valve replacement surgery, with CAD excluded by coronary angiography (n = 19). Gene expression was measured by GeneChip™ Human Transcriptome Array 2.0. Obtained list of 1348 transcripts (2.0%) that passed the filter criteria was further analyzed by Ingenuity Pathway Analysis software, identifying 735 unique differentially expressed genes (DEGs).Results: Among the CAD patients, 416 (30.9%) transcripts were upregulated, and 932 (69.1%) were downregulated, compared to controls. The top upregulated genes were involved in inflammation and atherosclerosis (chemokines, interleukin-6, selectin E and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) receptor), whereas the downregulated genes were involved in cardiac ischaemia and remodelling, platelet function and mitochondrial function (miR-3671, miR-4524a, multimerin, biglycan, tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI), glucuronidases, miR-548, collagen type I, III, IV). Among the top upstream regulators, we identified molecules that have proinflammatory and atherosclerotic features (High Mobility Group Box 2 (HMGB2), platelet-derived growth platelet (PDGF) and evolutionarily conserved signaling intermediate in Toll pathways (ESCIT)). The activated pathway related to DEGs consisted of molecules with well-established role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis (TFPI, plasminogen activator, plasminogen activator, urokinase receptor (PLAUR), thrombomodulin). Moreover, we showed that 22 of the altered genes form a pro-atherogenic network.Conclusion: Altered gene expression in PCAT of CAD patients, with genes upregulation and activation of pathway involved in inflammation and atherosclerosis, may be involved in CAD development and progression.Keywords: adipose tissue, inflammation, gene expression, atherosclerosisKonwerski MGromadka AArendarczyk AKoblowska MIwanicka-Nowicka RWilimski RCzub PFilipiak KJHendzel PZielenkiewicz POpolski GGąsecka AMazurek TDove Medical Pressarticleadipose tissueinflammationgene expressionatherosclerosisPathologyRB1-214Therapeutics.
