Identification of microRNA biomarkers simultaneously expressed in circulating extracellular vesicles and atherosclerotic plaques

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

The early detection of plaques by circulating biomarkers is highly clinically relevant to prevent the occurrence of major complications such as stroke or heart attacks. BackgroundAtherosclerosis is a widespread disorder of the cardiovascular system. EVs were isolated from serum by precipitation.

Associations between circulating proteins and cardiometabolic diseases: a systematic review and meta-analysis of observational and Mendelian randomisation studies

Heart BMJ

Background Integration of large proteomics and genetic data in population-based studies can provide insights into discovery of novel biomarkers and potential therapeutic targets for cardiometabolic diseases (CMD). We aimed to synthesise existing evidence on the observational and genetic associations between circulating proteins and CMD.

Abstract 106: Circulating Interleukin-6 Levels Early During Active Stroke Estimate Time of Stroke Onset: Potential New Clinical Biomarker Tool From a Mobile Stroke Unit

Stroke Journal

Stroke, Volume 55, Issue Suppl_1 , Page A106-A106, February 1, 2024. Background:Circulating interleukin-6 (IL-6) concentrations are elevated in acute stroke but the timing of the IL-6 response in humans is unknown. We used a mobile stroke unit (MSU) to identify IL-6 levels within minutes of symptom onset. pg/mL, respectively.

Association between atherogenic index of plasma and new-onset stroke in individuals with different glucose metabolism status: insights from CHARLS

Cardiovascular Diabetology

Circulating atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) levels has been proposed as a novel biomarker for dyslipidemia and as a predictor of insulin resistance (IR) risk. However, the association between AIP and the inc.

Abstract TP6: Identification of Circulating Epigenetic Biomarkers for Seizure in Brain Arteriovenous Malformation by Methylome Profiling

Stroke Journal

Stroke, Volume 55, Issue Suppl_1 , Page ATP6-ATP6, February 1, 2024. Background:Brain arteriovenous malformations (bAVMs) are an important cause of intracranial hemorrhage, seizure, or other neurological deficits. Clinical heterogeneity of bAVM suggests a role for genetic modifiers that may associate with seizure risk.

Lowering Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease Events by Treating Residual Inflammatory Risk

DAIC

3 Patients with ASCVD are at a higher risk for major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) including heart attack or myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, and cardiovascular (CV) death.4 Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), caused by plaque buildup in arterial walls, is one of the leading causes of disability and death worldwide.1,2
