    Abstract Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) remains a disease with poor prognosis; thus, a new mechanism for PAH treatment is necessary. Circulating nerve growth factor receptor (Ngfr)-positive cells in peripheral blood mononuclear cells are associated with disease severity and the prognosis of PAH patients; however, the role of Ngfr in PAH is unknown. In this study, we evaluated the function of Ngfr using Ngfr gene-deletion (Ngfr

    Abstract Purpose: Catheter ablation (CA) to isolate the pulmonary vein, which is an established treatment for atrial fibrillation (AF), is associated with left atrium reverse remodeling (LARR). The intrinsic cardiac autonomic nervous system includes the ganglion plexi adjacent to the pulmonary vein in the left atrium (LA). However, little is known about the effect of CA on the relationship between LARR and sympathetic nerve activity in patients with AF.
    Methods: This study enrolled 22 AF patients with a normal left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) aged 64.6 ± 12.9 years who were scheduled for CA. Sympathetic nerve activity was evaluated by direct recording of muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) before and 12 weeks after CA. Blood pressure, heart rate (HR), HR variability, and echocardiography were also measured.
    Results: The heart rate increased significantly after CA (63 ± 10.9 vs. 70.6 ± 7.7 beats/min, p < 0.01), but blood pressure did not change. A high frequency (HF) and low frequency (LF) of HR variability decreased significantly after ablation, but no significant change in LF/HF was observed. CA significantly decreased MSNA (38.9 ± 9.9 vs. 28 ± 9.1 bursts/min, p < 0.01). Moreover, regression analysis revealed a positive correlation between the percentage change in MSNA and the LA volume index (r = 0.442, p < 0.05).
    Conclusions: Our results show that CA for AF reduced MSNA and the decrease was associated with the LA volume index in AF patients with a normal LVEF. These findings suggest that LARR induced by CA for AF decrease sympathetic nerve activity.

    Abstract Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) remains a disease with a poor prognosis, so early detection and treatment are very important. Sensitive and non-invasive markers for PAH are urgently required. This study was performed to identify sensitive markers of the clinical severity and prognosis of PAH. Patients diagnosed with PAH (n = 30) and control participants (n = 15) were enrolled in this observational study. Major EPC and MSC markers (including CD34, CD133, VEGFR2, CD90, PDGFRα, and NGFR) in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMNCs) were assessed by flow cytometry. Associations of these markers with hemodynamic parameters (e.g. mean pulmonary arterial pressure, pulmonary vascular resistance, and cardiac index) were assessed. Patients with PAH were followed up for 12 months to assess the incidence of major adverse events, defined as death or lung transplantation. Levels of circulating EPC and MSC markers in PBMNCs were higher in patients with PAH than in control participants. Among the studied markers, nerve growth factor receptor (NGFR) was significantly positively correlated with hemodynamic parameters. During the 12-month follow-up period, major-event-free survival was significantly higher in patients with PAH who had relatively low frequencies of NGFR positive cells than patients who had higher frequencies. These results suggested that the presence of circulating NGFR positive cells among PBMNCs may be a novel biomarker for the severity and prognosis of PAH.

    Abstract Type 2 diabetes mellitus is an important risk factor for cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). Therapeutic angiogenesis using adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) is attractive for CVD therapy. However, although it would be critical for ADSC application on CVD therapy, whether and how diabetes impairs human ADSC therapeutic potential is still uncertain. In this study, we aimed to investigate the impact of diabetes on the angiogenic potential of ADSCs in patients with CVDs, with special focus on stemness-related genes and cellular alteration of ADSCs. We established cultured ADSCs from diabetic (DM-ADSCs) and non-diabetic patients (nonDM-ADSCs) with CVDs. DM-ADSCs demonstrated limited proliferative capacity and reduced paracrine capacity of VEGF, with lower expression of the stemness gene SOX2. Angiogenic capacity and ADSC engraftment were assessed using xenograft experiments in a hindlimb ischemia model of athymic nude mice. Consistent with the results of in vitro assays, DM-ADSCs did not rescue limb ischemia. In contrast, nonDM-ADSCs induced neovascularization with enhanced engraftment. To elucidate the mechanism underlying these ADSC changes, we compared the surface marker profiles of freshly isolated ADSCs obtained from diabetic and non-diabetic patients by flow cytometry. Among studied subsets, the CD34+CD31−CD271+ subpopulation was reduced in the adipose tissues of diabetic patients. In addition, SOX2 expression and proliferative capacity were considerably reduced in nonDM-ADSCs derived from the stromal vascular fraction (SVF) with depletion of CD271+ cells (p < 0.01). Our observations elucidated that reduced CD271+ subpopulation is critical for the impairment of ADSCs in diabetic patients. Further investigations on the CD271+ subset of ADSCs might provide novel insights into the mechanisms and solutions for diabetes-related ADSC dysfunction in cell therapy.

    Abstract Selenoprotein P (SeP) is a selenium (Se)-rich extracellular protein. SeP is identified as a hepatokine, causing insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes. Thus, the measurement of SeP in serum has received much attention, and several enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits for SeP determination are now commercially available. In the present study, we determined the serum SeP levels by our original ELISA and sol particle homogeneous immunoassay (SPIA) methods and also by commercially available kits, and these determinants were compared. We found a kit-dependent correlation of the determinants with our methods. These results suggest that the selection of kit is critical for comparison with our previous reports and for discussing the relationship between the serum SeP levels and disease condition.

    Abstract Background: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is characterized by augmented sympathetic nerve activity. In our previous study, patients with OSA and an apnea-hyperpnea index (AHI)>55events/h showed increased single-unit muscle sympathetic nerve activity compared to patients with OSA and AHI of 30-55events/h. However, the prognostic impact in these patients remains unclear.
    Methods: Ninety-one OSA patients were included. All patients who had indication for continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) were treated with CPAP. Patients were divided into three groups: mild/moderate OSA (S), AHI<30events/h (n=44); severe OSA (SS), AHI 30-55events/h (n=29); and very severe OSA (VSS), AHI>55events/h (n=18). The primary endpoint was a composite outcome composed of death, cardiovascular events, stroke, and heart failure with hospitalization.
    Results: In the 5-year follow-up, the primary event rate in the SS group [3 events (7%)] was the same as that in the S group [3 events (10%)]. However, the VSS group showed a significantly higher primary event rate among the three groups [6 events (33%), p<0.05]. In Cox regression analysis, the VSS group had the highest hazard ratio compared to other risk factors.
    Conclusions: CPAP was effective for preventing cardiovascular disease in patients with severe OSA, however patients with very severe OSA still had a high event rate, indicating that CPAP treatment might be insufficient to reduce the OSA-related risk burden in patients with very severe OSA. Additional systemic medical treatment for CPAP might be needed in patients with very severe OSA.

    Abstract The prognosis of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) has significantly improved over the past two decades due to advances in medications, including pulmonary vasodilators. However, the side effects of these drugs remain problematic in some patients. A 51-year-old woman with chronic hepatitis C was diagnosed with PAH 7 years before presenting to our hospital. She was unable to continue her treatment with pulmonary vasodilators due to various side effects. She had a World Health Organization functional class of IV and was started on continuous infusion of prostaglandin I2 (PGI2). This therapy improved her symptoms, including dyspnea and fatigue. However, she began to complain of abdominal distension after 4 months of PGI2 therapy. Computed tomography showed significant hepatosplenomegaly. Her abdominal distension improved slightly after decreasing PGI2 treatment, but her dyspnea on exertion was exacerbated. She died 12 years after diagnosis of PAH due to uncontrollable heart failure. Here, we describe a rare case of PAH with hepatosplenomegaly after administration of PGI2. <

    Abstract Phrenic nerve (PN) stimulation is essential for the elimination of PN palsy during balloon-based pulmonary vein isolation (PVI). Although ultrasound-guided vascular access is safe, insertion of a PN stimulation catheter via central venous access carries a potential risk of the development of mechanical complications. We evaluated the safety of a left cubital vein approach for positioning a 20-electrode atrial cardioversion (BeeAT) catheter in the coronary sinus (CS), and the feasibility of right PN pacing from the superior vena cava (SVC) using proximal electrodes of the BeeAT catheter. In total, 106 consecutive patients who underwent balloon-based PVI with a left cubital vein approach for BeeAT catheter positioning were retrospectively assessed. The left cubital approach was successful in 105 patients (99.1%), and catheter insertion into the CS was possible for 104 patients (99.0%). Among these patients, constant right PN pacing from the SVC was obtained for 89 patients (89/104, 85.6%). In five patients, transient loss of right PN capture occurred during right pulmonary vein ablation. No persistent right PN palsy was observed. Small subcutaneous hemorrhage was observed in eight patients (7.5%). Neuropathy, pseudoaneurysm, arteriovenous fistula, and perforations associated with the left cubital approach were not detected. Body mass index was significantly higher in the right PN pacing failure group than in the right PN pacing success group (26.2 ± 3.2 vs. 23.8 ± 3.8; P = 0.025). CS catheter placement with a left cubital vein approach for right PN stimulation was found to be safe and feasible. Right PN pacing from the SVC using a BeeAT catheter was successfully achieved in the majority of the patients. This approach may prove to be preferable for non-obese patients.
