Left ventricular remodelling after acute myocardial infarction: Impact of clinical, echocardiographic parameters and polymorphism of angiotensinogen gene

Introduction: The development of left ventricular remodelling after acute myocardial infarction is a predictor of heart failure and mortality. The purpose of the present study was to assess whether the polymorphism of angiotensinogen ( AGT ) gene with threonine (T) instead of methionine (M) at amino...

description Introduction: The development of left ventricular remodelling after acute myocardial infarction is a predictor of heart failure and mortality. The purpose of the present study was to assess whether the polymorphism of angiotensinogen ( AGT ) gene with threonine (T) instead of methionine (M) at amino acid 235 in exon 2 ( M235T ) had effects on cardiac remodelling after acute myocardial infarction. Methods: One hundred and forty-one patients (mean age 56.4±11.1 years) with a first acute myocardial infarction were enrolled. Within 24–72 hours of the onset of the symptoms and at a four month period two-dimensional echocardiography was performed. Remodelling was defined as a 20% increase from the baseline in left ventricular end-diastolic volume. The genotypes of the study group were compared with the reference group ( n =1010) genotypes. AGT M235T polymorphism was determined using polymerase chain reaction amplification. Results: At follow-up, 49 patients (34.7%) were classified as having left ventricular remodelling. Anterior localization of the infarct ( p =0.008), leucocyte count at admission ( p =0.040), global left ventricular longitudinal strain ( p =0.021) and MM genotype of AGT ( p =0.024) were independent predictors of ventricular remodelling after myocardial infarction. Conclusions: Anterior wall infarction, increased leucocyte count, decreased longitudinal strain of left ventricular and polymorphism of AGT M235T may predict remodelling after myocardial infarction.
