description | Background: Current data on the possible involvement of aging neutrophils in atherogenesis are limited. This study aimed to research the diagnostic value of aging neutrophils in their relation to subclinical atherosclerosis in statin-naïve patients without established atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases (ASCVD). Methods: The study was carried out on 151 statin-naïve patients aged 40–64 years old without ASCVD. All patients underwent duplex scanning of the carotid arteries, lower limb arteries and abdominal aorta. Phenotyping and differentiation of neutrophil subpopulations were performed through flow cytometry (Navios 6/2, Beckman Coulter, USA). Results: The number of CD62L<sup>lo</sup>CXCR4<sup>hi</sup>-neutrophils is known to be significantly higher in patients with subclinical atherosclerosis compared with patients without atherosclerosis (<i>p</i> = 0.006). An increase in the number of CD62L<sup>lo</sup>CXCR4<sup>hi</sup>-neutrophils above cut-off values makes it possible to predict atherosclerosis in at least one vascular bed with sensitivity of 35.4–50.5% and specificity of 80.0–92.1%, in two vascular beds with sensitivity of 44.7–84.4% and specificity of 80.8–33.3%. Conclusion: In statin-naïve patients 40–64 years old without established ASCVD with subclinical atherosclerosis, there is an increase in circulating CD62L<sup>lo</sup>CXCR4<sup>hi</sup>-neutrophils. It was also concluded that the increase in the number of circulating CD62L<sup>lo</sup>CXCR4<sup>hi</sup>-neutrophils demonstrated moderate diagnostic efficiency (AUC 0.617–0.656) in relation to the detection of subclinical atherosclerosis, including polyvascular atherosclerosis. |
