Abstract
Objective
This study investigated changes in methylation concentrations within the glutathione peroxidase 3 (GPX3) promoter region among patients diagnosed with chronic heart failure (CHF). Peripheral blood samples were collected from 20 CHF patients and 20 healthy individuals for analysis.
Methods
Using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry, methylation concentrations of 11 CpG sites within the GPX3 promoter region were quantified.
Results
Results showed a significant increase in methylation at the GPX3_FA10_CpG_24 site in patients with CHF compared with the control group (P < 0.05). Furthermore, a nonlinear dose–response relationship was observed between methylation concentrations at this site and key clinical parameters including serum apolipoprotein A-1, D-dimer, chlorine, potassium, and sodium (Na) (P < 0.05).
Conclusions
These findings suggest that aberrant methylation of the GPX3 promoter may impact disease progression by influencing physiological functions such as blood lipids, coagulation, and electrolytes. Further investigations are warranted to elucidate the role of GPX3 promoter methylation in CHF pathogenesis, potentially contributing valuable insights for its prevention, diagnosis, and treatment.
