PPAR Gamma Expression Levels during Development of Heart Failure in Patients with Coronary Artery Disease after Coronary Artery Bypass-Grafting

Abstract: Genetic research has elucidated molecular mechanisms of heart failure (HF). Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) seem to be important in etiology of HF. The aim of study was to find the correlation between PPARγ expression during development of HF in patients and coronary artery disease (CAD) after coronary artery bypass-grafting (CABG). Methods and Results. We followed up 157 patients (mean age 63) with CAD without clinical, laboratory, or echo parameters of HF who underwent CABG. Clinical and … Show more

“…PPAR‐γ has mostly been considered as a crucial metabolic sensor connected with glucose and lipid metabolism homeostasis, lipid storage, and adipogenesis (Lehrke & Lazar, ; Lim, ). PPAR‐γ may attenuate plaque stabilization by reducing matrix metallopeptidase 9 (MMP‐9) expression and promote the formation of foam cell by stimulating the intake of oxidized LDL (Kersten, Desvergne, Desvergne, & Wahli, ) which may also be offset by PPAR‐γ–dependent or independent counter‐regulatory mechanisms (Chrisman et al, ; Wojtkowska et al, ). All of these suggest that PPAR‐γ can link altered lipid and glucose metabolism with CAD development especially in DM.…”

“…The level of PPAR γ in the myocardium was not able to predict development of heart failure after CABG, as was shown in our previous work [18]. However, in the group of patients, in whom heart failure develops during the follow-up, higher myocardial PPAR γ level seems to preserve the systolic function of the left ventricle.…”

“…In the HF group one patient died because of myocardial infarction in 1 year after CABG. The baseline characteristics of the study group were presented in the previous paper [18]. One month after CABG 106 patients (67%) were diagnosed with heart failure based on NT-proBNP exceeding 400 pg/mL or LVEF < 40%.…”

“…Wojtkowska et al. ( 2014 ) observed that PPARγ expression level is considerably upregulated during development of heart failure in patients with coronary artery disease after coronary artery bypass-grafting. Accumulated evidence suggested that the production of tumour necrosis factor α (TNFα) by cardiac myocytes promotes the development and progression of heart failure, and PPARγ agonists can potently inhibit the cardiac expression of TNFα through attenuating NF-κB activation, suggesting that treatment with the agonists may prevent the development of congestive heart failure (Takano et al.…”
