Abstract
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a major health issue. This study focused on pericardial macrophages and small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) in CAD. The macrophages in CAD patients showed reduced expression of protective markers and unchanged levels of proinflammatory receptors. Similar changes were observed in buffy-coat–derived macrophages when stimulated with CAD pericardial fluid-derived sEVs. The sEV contained miRNA-6516-5p, which inhibited CD36 and affected macrophage lipid uptake. These findings indicate that sEV-mediated miRNA actions contribute to the decrease in protective pericardial macrophages in CAD.
期刊介绍:
JACC: Basic to Translational Science is an open access journal that is part of the renowned Journal of the American College of Cardiology (JACC). It focuses on advancing the field of Translational Cardiovascular Medicine and aims to accelerate the translation of new scientific discoveries into therapies that improve outcomes for patients with or at risk for Cardiovascular Disease. The journal covers thematic areas such as pre-clinical research, clinical trials, personalized medicine, novel drugs, devices, and biologics, proteomics, genomics, and metabolomics, as well as early phase clinical trial methodology.
