Abstract
Introduction. Cardiovascular diseases are predominantly caused by atherosclerosis as a multifactorial chronic condition. Alterations in the hematological system and the blood vessel wall are considered as highly significant for onset and development of cerebrovascular disorders associated with atherosclerosis. Biomarkers as measurable indicators are to verify abnormal activity.
Objective: to assess atherogenesis biomarkers in patients after carotid angioplasty and stenting (CAS) as associated with development of cerebrovascular disease.
Materials and methods. We evaluated 50 individuals (50% men, 50% women; average age 65.4 ± 6.4 years) with established cerebrovascular disease associated with brain atherosclerosis. All of them had hemodynamically significant abnormalities in the internal carotid artery (ICA) with both symptomatic (stenosis 60% and more) and asymptomatic (stenosis 70% and more) stenoses confirmed by duplex scanning of the brachiocephalic arteries. All patients underwent CAS as indicated. Before and 1 year after the intervention, we performed clinical and neurological examinations, brain magnetic resonance imaging, and laboratory tests of atherogenesis biomarkers.
Results. At baseline, all the individuals demonstrated a pro-atherogenic shift in the assessed indicators, predominantly markers of extracellular matrix degradation, inflammation and atherogenesis (including osteoprotegerin and chromogranin А). Additionally, we established a direct correlation between osteoprotegerin levels and the characteristics of mostly hyperechoic atherosclerotic plaques (r = 0.29; p < 0.05). A year later, no signs of restenosis were shown in follow-up ultrasound assessment of stented arteries in any patient.
In 1 year post CAS, we found significant changes in the levels of osteoprotegerin (decrease to 1.765 pg/mL [1.592; 1.937]; p < 0.05) and chromogranin А (elevation to 31.3 μg/L [13.9; 90.7]; p < 0.05). Re-assessment demonstrated association between changes in the pattern of the nitrogen oxide system, which tends to improve (NO elevation to 38.23 μmol/L [32.95; 43.51]; p < 0.001), and atheroprotective shift in the morphology of atherosclerotic plaques and biomarker profile.
Conclusion. Prospective, 1-year long observation for patients who underwent CAS for symptomatic/asymptomatic hemodynamically significant ICA stenoses revealed favourable atheroprotective shift in both ultrasound and hematological atherogenesis biomarker ratio. This shift contributed to the absence of cerebral atherosclerosis progression during the follow-up. The process may be mediated by chromogranin А and osteoprotegerin, and their further research is needed from perspective of atherogenesis.
