Deep Learning-Enabled Multiplexed Point-of-Care Sensor using a Paper-Based Fluorescence Vertical Flow Assay. SMALL (WEINHEIM AN DER BERGSTRASSE, GERMANY) 2023; 19:e2300617. [PMID: 37104829 DOI: 10.1002/smll.202300617] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/21/2023] [Revised: 03/25/2023] [Indexed: 06/19/2023]
Abstract
Multiplexed computational sensing with a point-of-care serodiagnosis assay to simultaneously quantify three biomarkers of acute cardiac injury is demonstrated. This point-of-care sensor includes a paper-based fluorescence vertical flow assay (fxVFA) processed by a low-cost mobile reader, which quantifies the target biomarkers through trained neural networks, all within <15 min of test time using 50 µL of serum sample per patient. This fxVFA platform is validated using human serum samples to quantify three cardiac biomarkers, i.e., myoglobin, creatine kinase-MB, and heart-type fatty acid binding protein, achieving less than 0.52 ng mL-1 limit-of-detection for all three biomarkers with minimal cross-reactivity. Biomarker concentration quantification using the fxVFA that is coupled to neural network-based inference is blindly tested using 46 individually activated cartridges, which shows a high correlation with the ground truth concentrations for all three biomarkers achieving >0.9 linearity and <15% coefficient of variation. The competitive performance of this multiplexed computational fxVFA along with its inexpensive paper-based design and handheld footprint makes it a promising point-of-care sensor platform that can expand access to diagnostics in resource-limited settings.

[PMID: 37175528 PMCID: PMC10177957 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24097822] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/09/2023] [Revised: 04/21/2023] [Accepted: 04/22/2023] [Indexed: 05/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Myoglobin (Mb) is the main constituent of vertebrate skeletal muscle and myocardium and plays an essential role in oxygen binding, storage, transport, and earliest disease diagnosis. This study focuses on preparing the novel recombinant rabbit anti-Mb monoclonal antibody and applying it to a diagnosis of Mb deposition in rhabdomyolysis-associated acute kidney injury (RM-AKI). The full-length coding sequence of rat Mb was cloned and expressed, and the high-quality and titer rabbit anti-Mb polyclonal antibodies were produced by the immunogen His-Mb fusion protein. A new hybridoma cell was obtained by hybridoma screening technology. With the help of DNA sequencing and a molecular clonal, anti-Mb monoclonal antibody heavy and light chains expression plasmid was constructed. Finally, the recombinant rabbit anti-Mb monoclonal antibody with extraordinarily high affinity (KD = 1.21 pM) was obtained. Meanwhile, it had broad species reactivity (mouse, rat, human, and horse) and good tissue specificity (skeletal muscle and myocardium). It also had a very good performance in western blotting, immunohistochemistry, and immunofluorescence assay to detect the Mb level in the kidney, myocardium, and skeletal muscle of RM-AKI. This study will be significantly helpful for Mb-associated disease diagnosis, and pathogenesis exploration, and further may act as a neutralizing antibody for disease treatment.

Imaging of Heart Type Fatty Acid Binding Protein Under Acute Reperfusion Ischemia Using Radio-labeled Antibody in Rat Heart Model. ANNALS OF NUCLEAR CARDIOLOGY 2022; 8:14-20. [PMID: 36540183 PMCID: PMC9754781 DOI: 10.17996/anc.21-00146] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2021] [Revised: 08/30/2021] [Accepted: 09/02/2021] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
Purpose: Heart-type fatty acid binding protein (H-FABP) is primary transporter of free fatty acid and plays an important role in myocardial metabolism, which is characterized by high specificity and rapid appearance under ischemic condition. The objective of this study was to clarify the usefulness of imaging study of targeting H-FABP appearance using radio-labeled antibody, and correlation with myocardial fatty acid metabolism and perfusion in acute reperfusion ischemia. Method: Wistar rats were allotted to sham-operated control group (sham; n=4), ischemia non-reperfused group (IG; n=5), and ischemia-reperfusion group (RG; n=5). Ligation of left coronary artery (LCA) was performed for IG and RG. 20 min of ischemia was followed by 60min of reperfusion for RG. 125I labeled anti H-FABP antibody (anti H-FABP), BMIPP and 99mTc-sestamibi (MIBI) was injected intravenously. Multi-tracer digital autoradiogram was performed using µ-imager®. The ratio of radioactivity in LCA related (culprit) area to the inferior (remote) area (target uptake ratio=TUR) was generated. Results: In sham group, no visually detectable accumulation was observed for the anti H-FABP image, and TURMIBI and TURBMIPP were equivalent to 1. In IG, TURMIBI and TURBMIPP were remarkably low (0.12±0.01, 0.24±0.07). In RG, TURMIBI was significantly lower (0.20±0.03, p<0.05 vs. other groups). However, TURBMIPP was significantly higher (2.78±1.28, p<0.05) compared to the sham and IG, whereas anti H-FABP showed markedly higher ratio in the reperfused area compared to the sham and IG (3.43±0.73 vs. 0.31±0.13 and 1.09±0.07 for IG and sham; p<0.05, and <0.01, respectively). Conclusion: Anti H-FABP accumulated specifically in reperfused area under acute ischemia, and it accorded to the area where fatty acid metabolism was activated. This study has shown the future potential for clinical application in vivo imaging of acute coronary syndrome.

Abstract
PURPOSE Cryoablation is a recommended, modern and well-tolerated method of treating atrial fibrillation (AF). The study evaluates plasma biomarkers related to AF and the effectiveness of its treatment - cryoablation. Heart- and adipocyte-type fatty acid binding proteins (H-FABP and A-FABP, respectively) as well as fatty acids (FAs) were assessed in patients that underwent cryoballoon ablation (CBA) for AF. PATIENTS AND METHODS Concentrations of plasma FABPs and FAs were measured in 33 AF patients on admission and 24 h after CBA (enzyme-linked immunoassay and gas liquid chromatography, respectively). The control group consisted of 20 volunteers. RESULTS We showed that plasma H-FABP and A-FABP concentrations were significantly higher in the patients with AF than in the control group (1135 pg/mL vs 836 pg/mL, and 34.29 ng/mL vs 15.14 ng/mL, respectively; p < 0.05). After CBA, H-FABP plasma concentration increased even further (1574 pg/mL vs 1135 pg/mL; p < 0.05) and FAs levels decreased concomitantly. AF recurred in 8 patients (24.25%) after 3 months and in 13 patients (39.4%) after 6 months. Initially higher concentration of oleic acid (680.24 ± 189.768 vs 567.04 ± 70.002; p < 0.05) correlated substantially with lower AF relapse rate in 6 months follow-up. CONCLUSIONS The patients with AF showed increased concentration of H-FABP, whereas CBA triggered further elevation of H-FABP with a simultaneous decline in the total plasma FAs concentration. H-FABP and A-FABP could not be confirmed as new biomarkers of cryoablation efficiency, but this requires further investigation due to the limitations of the study.

Abstract
Background The correlation between rhabdomyolysis and postoperative acute kidney injury has been reported in several surgical procedures. As a good predictor of rhabdomyolysis-related acute kidney injury, an elevated serum myoglobin level was often observed after total aortic arch replacement combined with frozen elephant trunk implantation. However, the correlation between serum myoglobin and acute kidney injury in such patients had not been established. Methods Totally 398 stanford type A aortic dissection patients who underwent total aortic arch replacement combined with frozen elephant trunk implantation were enrolled in this retrospective study. The correlations between serum myoglobin and acute kidney injury as well as the 30-day mortality were assessed. Results Overall, 268(67.3%) patients had acute kidney injury (KDIGO stage 1 or higher) and 75(18.8%) had severe acute kidney injury (KDIGO stage 2&3). Patients who developed acute kidney injury had higher level of perioperative serum myoglobin than patients without acute kidney injury. After adjusting for known acute kidney injury risk factors, logarithmically transformed preoperative serum myoglobin [OR = 1.58 (95% CI, 1.26–1.95), P < 0.001] and postoperative day 1 serum myoglobin [OR = 3.47 (95%CI, 2.27–5.29), P < 0.001] were associated with severe acute kidney injury. These correlation persisted after adjustment for decline in filtration via change in serum creatinine (ΔCr) and biomarkers of cardiac and kidney injury, including N-terminal prohormone of brain natriuretic peptide, cardiac troponin I, creatine kinase-MB, serum creatinine and Cystatin C. Compared with the clinical model, sMb considerably improved the risk discrimination and reclassification for AKI. Conclusion For stanford type A aortic dissection patients underwent total aortic arch replacement with frozen elephant trunk implantation, serum myoglobin can improve postoperative acute kidney injury risk classification. Rhabdomyolysis may be an important supplement to the existing knowledge on the mechanism of acute kidney injury.

Abstract
Research in redox biology of exercise has made considerable advances in the last 70 years. Since the seminal study of George Pake's group calculating the content of free radicals in skeletal muscle in resting conditions in 1954, many discoveries have been made in the field. The first section of this review is devoted to highlight the main research findings and fundamental changes in the exercise redox biology discipline. It includes: i) the first steps in free radical research, ii) the relation between exercise and oxidative damage, iii) the redox regulation of muscle fatigue, iv) the sources of free radicals during muscle contractions, and v) the role of reactive oxygen species as regulators of gene transcription and adaptations in skeletal muscle. In the second section of the manuscript, we review the available biomarkers for assessing health, performance, recovery during exercise training and overtraining in the sport population. Among the set of biomarkers that could be determined in exercise studies we deepen on the four categories of redox biomarkers: i) oxidants, ii) antioxidants, iii) oxidation products (markers of oxidative damage), and iv) measurements of the redox balance (markers of oxidative stress). The main drawbacks, strengths, weaknesses, and methodological considerations of every biomarker are also discussed.

Abstract
With the development of modern society, we have witnessed a significant increase of people who join in sport exercises, which also brings significantly increasing exercise-induced muscle injuries, resulting in reduction and even cessation of participation in sports and physical activities. Although severely injured muscles can hardly realize full functional restoration, skeletal muscles subjected to minor muscle injuries (e.g., tears, lacerations, and contusions) hold remarkable regeneration capacity to be healed without therapeutic interventions. However, delayed diagnosis or inappropriate prognosis will cause exacerbation of the injuries. Therefore, timely diagnosis and prognosis of muscle injuries is important to the recovery of injured muscles. Here, in this review, we discuss the definition and classification of exercise-induced muscle injuries, and then analyze their underlying mechanism. Subsequently, we provide detailed introductions to both conventional and emerging techniques for evaluation of exercise-induced muscle injuries with focus on emerging portable and wearable devices for point-of-care testing (POCT). Finally, we point out existing challenges and prospects in this field. We envision that an integrated system that combines physiological and biochemical analyses is anticipated to be realized in the future for assessing muscle injuries.

Abstract
Background/aim Our aim in this study was to compare the efficacy and safety of crystalloid del Nido solution and cold blood cardioplegia solution on clinical and laboratory parameters. Materials and methods Sixty patients who underwent elective coronary bypass operation between July 2019 and January 2020 were included in our study. Patients were divided into 2 groups of 30 patients using del Nido solution (DNS) and cold blood cardioplegia solution (CBCS), which were given for cardiac arrest. Demographic data, preoperative, postoperative 0th h, 6th h and 4th day creatine kinase myocardial band (CK-MB) and troponin I values were compared with a specific cardiac enzyme heart-type fatty acid-binding protein (H-FABP). Results We found that aortic cross clamp duration and cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) time were shorter in patients using del Nido solution than cold blood cardioplegia solution (57.30 ± 23.57 min, 76.07 ± 27.18 min, P = 0.006) (95.07 ± 23.06 min, 114.13 ± 33.93, P = 0.014). Total cardioplegia solution volume was higher in the cold blood cardioplegia solution group (1426.67 ± 416.00 vs. 1200 ± 310.73 P = 0.02). Preoperative and postoperative levels of cardiac enzymes including CK-MB, troponin I and H-FABP were comparable in del Nido solution and cold blood cardioplegia solution groups. Conclusion According to these results, when we compare both demographic data and CK-MB, troponin I and H-FABP levels, both cardioplegia solutions were comparable regarding safety and efficacy in terms of myocardial protection.

OBJECTIVES It has been reported that plasma fast skeletal muscle troponin I (fsTnI) but not slow skeletal muscle troponin I (ssTnI) increases after a bout of eccentric exercise of the elbow flexors. The present study compared the first and second bouts of whole-body eccentric exercises for changes in plasma fsTnI and ssTnI concentrations. DESIGN Observational study in an experimental group. METHODS Fifteen sedentary men (20-25 y) performed nine eccentric exercises targeting arm, leg and trunk muscles, and repeated them two weeks later. Blood samples were taken before and for five days following each bout, and plasma ssTnI and fsTnl concentrations were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. Their changes were compared between bouts and their relationships to plasma CK activity and myoglobin concentrations were analysed. RESULTS Plasma fsTnI concentration increased after the first bout and peaked at 4 days post-exercise (2152-40,295 ng/mL), but no significant increases were evident after the second bout. Plasma ssTnI concentration did not change significantly from the baseline (<0.08 ng/mL) after either bout. Peak plasma fsTnI concentration was significantly (p < 0.005) correlated with peak plasma CK activity (peak: 23,238-207,304 IU/L, r = 0.727) and myoglobin concentration (1047-3936 μg/L, r = 0.625) after the first bout. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that plasma TnI concentrations are more specific biomarker of muscle damage than plasma CK activity and myoglobin concentration. It seems that the whole-body eccentric exercises induced damage preferentially to fast-twitch muscle fibres, and increases in plasma CK activity and myoglobin concentration after eccentric exercise may reflect fast-twitch muscle fibre damage.

Abstract
There is an unmet need for accurate and practical screening to detect myocarditis. We sought to test the hypothesis that the extent of acute myocarditis, measured by late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) on cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR), can be estimated based on routine blood markers. A total of 44 patients were diagnosed with acute myocarditis and included in this study. There was strong correlation between myoglobin and LGE (rs = 0.73 [95% CI 0.51; 0.87], p < 0.001), while correlation was weak between LGE and TnT-hs (rs = 0.37 [95% CI 0.09; 0.61], p = 0.01). Receiver operating curve (ROC) analysis determined myoglobin ≥ 87 μg/L as cutoff to identify myocarditis (92% sensitivity, 80% specificity). The data were reproduced in an established model of coxsackievirus B3 myocarditis in mice (n = 26). These data suggest that myoglobin is an accurate marker of acute myocarditis. Graphical Abstract Receiver operating curve analysis determined myoglobin ≥ 87 μg/L as cutoff to identify myocarditis and these data were reproduced in an established model of coxsackievirus B3 myocarditis in mice: CMRI, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging; Mb, myoglobin; LGE, late gadolinium enhancement; ROC, receiver operating curve analysis.

Abstract
Objectives: Understanding sex differences in myocarditis is crucial to improve clinical care. We sought to investigate sex differences focusing on clinical presentation and laboratory parameters. Methods: From 2011 to 2018, 77 patients were diagnosed with myocarditis according to European Society of Cardiology (ESC) criteria with available clinical, laboratory, and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging data. First, we investigated sex differences of clinical and laboratory parameters in the entire cohort of 77 patients. Second, we focused on patients with acute myocarditis (n = 51) defined as recent symptom onset (≤10 days). Results: Myocarditis was present in 63 men (82%) and 14 women (18%). While men most frequently presented with chest pain (78%), a considerable amount of women presented with dyspnea as the only symptom (40%). Within the entire cohort, only creatinine kinase (CK) was higher in men versus women (364 ± 286 vs. 147 ± 148 U/L, p = 0.007), while in patients with acute myocarditis both CK and myoglobin (Mb) were higher in men versus women (CK: 327 ± 223 vs. 112 ± 65 U/L, p = 0.004 and Mb: 111 ± 126 vs. 25 ± 29 μg/L, p = 0.04). No sex differences were found for high-sensitivity troponin T, C-reactive protein, and NT-probrain natriuretic peptide. Conclusions: This is the first study reporting sex differences in clinical presentation and routine laboratory parameters in myocarditis. While clinical presentation appeared to be subtle in women with dyspnea being the only presenting symptom of myocarditis in a considerable part, men typically complained of chest pain. Similarly to observations in myocardial infarction, atypical symptoms and underdiagnosis may be a cause for under-representation of women in cohorts of myocarditis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Heart-type fatty acid-binding protein (H-FABP) is a cytoplasmic protein and is released form necrotic cardiac myocytes, as well as ischemic cardiac myocytes. In this study, we compared creatine kinase MB (CK-MB), H-FABP, and cardiac troponin T (cTnT) after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), heart valve surgery, or septal defect surgery to evaluate the difference in detecting myocardial injury between three markers. METHODS A total of 69 patients (CABG, 32; valve surgery, 27; and septal defect surgery, 10) were prospectively enrolled. Blood samples were taken at specific intervals. RESULTS Mean amount (AUC0-72h) of CK-MB and cTnT released for 72 h in the patients with valve surgery were 2446 h·ng/ml and 93.2 h·ng/ml, which were significantly larger than those in the patients with CABG or septal defect surgery (p < .05). Mean amount (AUC0-72h) of H-FABP released for 72 h in the patients with CABG was 1939 h·ng/ml, which was significantly larger than that in the patients with septal defect surgery (700.1 h·ng/ml) (p < .05). CONCLUSION H-FABP would be a more useful marker for detecting myocardial ischemic injury than CK-MB and cTnT. CK-MB and cTnT would be more sensitive to myocardial injury with surgical trauma than with ischemic injury in the patients with cardiac surgery.

Abstract
Background: Heart type fatty acid protein (HFABP) is a cytosolic protein released early after acute coronary syndrome (ACS) even in the absence of myocardial necrosis. Objectives: The purpose of this systematic review was to determine whether HFABP levels in patients with suspected, or confirmed ACS, improve risk stratification when added to established means of risk assessment. Methods: We searched Medline, Pubmed and Embase databases from inception to July 2015 to identify prospective studies with suspected or confirmed ACS, who had HFABP measured during the index admission with at least 1 month follow up data. A prognostic event was defined as all-cause mortality or acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Results: 7 trials providing data on 6935 patients fulfilled inclusion criteria. There were considerable differences between studies and this was manifest in variation in prognostic impact of elevated HFABP(Odds ratio range 1.2-15.2 for death). All studies demonstrated that HFABP provide unadjusted prognostic information and in only one study this was negated after adjusting for covariates. A combination of both negative troponin and normal HFABP conferred a very low event rate. No study evaluated the incremental value of HFABP beyond that of standard risk scores. Only one study used a high sensitive troponin assay. Conclusion: There was marked heterogeneity in prognostic impact of HFABP in ACS between studies reflecting differences in sampling times and population risk. Prospective studies of suspected ACS with early sampling of HFABP in the era of high sensitivity troponin are necessary to determine the clinical value of HFABP. HFABP should not currently be used clinically as a prognostic marker in patients with suspected ACS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to measure the serum levels of heart-type fatty acid binding protein (H-FABP) in patients presenting with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and diabetic ketosis (DK) and to determine its role in identifying early-period cardiac ischemia. METHODS This prospective study included 35 patients diagnosed with DKA, 20 patients diagnosed with DK, and 20 control subjects. H-FABP, creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB), and troponin I levels were investigated at presentation in patients with DKA and DK and in the control group. H-FABP values were measured again after acidosis correction in the DKA patients. RESULTS No statistically significant differences were found with respect to troponin I and CK-MB within the groups. The H-FABP values of DKA patients at presentation were found to be significantly higher than those of DK patients and the control group (p=0.015). The H-FABP value of the DKA group was also found to be significantly higher than the value at hour 36 after acidosis correction (p=0.0001). CONCLUSION We would like to propose H-FABP as a potential marker for indicating myocardial ischemia.

Heart-Type Fatty Acid Binding Protein and Ischemia-Modified Albumin for Detection of Myocardial Infarction After Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery. Ann Thorac Surg 2017; 104:130-137.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Heart-type fatty acid binding protein (hFABP) and ischemia-modified albumin (IMA) have been put forward as novel biomarkers to detect myocardial injury shortly after onset of ischemia. We compared hFABP and IMA with cardiac troponin I (cTnI) for speed and reliability in the diagnosis of perioperative myocardial infarction (PMI) after coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG). METHODS In all, 210 consecutive patients undergoing isolated CABG with cardiopulmonary bypass were enrolled in a prospective study. Blood samples were taken perioperatively and throughout the first 72 hours after surgery; clinical data and events were recorded. In cohort A, serum concentrations of hFABP and cTnI were measured using a combined quantitative bedside assay. In cohort B, IMA and cTnI serum concentrations were measured using an albumin cobalt binding test. Perioperative myocardial infarction was defined using a cTnI cutoff of greater than 10.5 ng/mL occurring within 24 hours of CABG or new electrocardiographic changes. RESULTS In cohort A, 14 patients were identified with PMI (group 1), whereas 94 had no PMI and served as controls (group 2). Both hFABP and cTnI were increased in group 1 as compared with group 2 (p < 0.001). Although cTnI did not differ before 12 hours, hFABP diverged much earlier, at 1 hour postoperatively (p < 0.001). An hFABP concentration of 20 μg/mL at 1 hour detected PMI with an area under the curve of 77.1%. In cohort B, 18 patients were identified with PMI (group 3), and 84 patients served as controls (group 4). No difference in cTnI values could be observed between the groups until 12 hours postoperatively. Ischemia-modified albumin failed to differentiate at any postoperative time point; the low discriminative power of IMA was confirmed with an area under the curve of 53.3% at 1 hour, 48.5% at 6 hours, and 39.3% at 12 hours postoperatively. CONCLUSIONS Heart-type fatty acid binding protein is a sensitive and rapid biomarker that detected PMI reliably at 1 hour after CABG, much earlier than cTnI. The diagnostic value of IMA for detection of PMI appears to be very limited in this setting.

Abstract
Conventional and promising new markers of myocardial injury have become an important diagnostic tool and their prognostic significance is also recognized. In addition, they help identify patients who will derive the most benefit from therapeutic interventions. The literature was searched from the websites of the National Library of Medicine (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/) and PubMed Central, the U.S. National Library of Medicine’s digital archive of life sciences journal literature (http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/). The data were accessed from books and journals that published relevant articles in this field. The diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) has traditionally relied on the combination of chest pain, ECG features, and elevation in serum markers. However, chest symptoms are frequently atypical or absent and ECG changes may be nonspecific or absent. Hence, the diagnosis of acute coronary syndromes has become increasingly dependent on serum markers of cardiac injury. Among them, creatine kinase (CK) is an effective and widely used test, with the recent CKMB assay offering greater specificity and sensitivity. Cardiac troponins facilitate early and rapid diagnosis, enable effective risk stratification in patients with AMI (with or without traditional criteria for MI), and identify those who will benefit from aggressive medical or surgical intervention. Recent data suggest the potential of myoglobin and CKMB isoforms as sensitive markers in the early hours after symptom onset. Cardiac-specific troponins help in rapid diagnosis, prognostication, and treatment of AMI. Troponins also facilitate early detection of recent infarction owing to their prolonged diagnostic window and also aid in the detection of “microinfarction.” CKMB is used to detect reinfarction or infarct extension, if levels rise again after declining. Finally, novel biochemical markers are receiving attention in ongoing trials. They may prove to be more effective in diagnosis and prognosis than their existing counterparts.

Abstract
The neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (NCLs) are a group of neurodegenerative genetic diseases that primarily affect children and have no known cure. A unified clinical rating scale for the juvenile form of NCL has been developed, although it has not been validated in other subtypes and does not give a true measure of the pathophysiological changes occurring during disease progression. In the present study, we have identified candidate biomarkers in blood plasma of NCL disease using multiple proteomic approaches, with the aim of developing a panel of biomarkers that could serve as a metric for therapeutic response. Candidate biomarkers were identified as proteins with levels that significantly differed between patients and controls in both sample sets. The seven candidates identified have previously been associated with neurodegenerative and inflammatory diseases. Multiplex immunoassay based testing was the most efficient and effective evaluation technique and could be employed on a broad scale to track patient response to treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Heart-type fatty acid-binding protein (H-FABP) is a novel cardiac marker used in the early diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI), which shows myocyte injury. Our study aimed to compare bedside H-FABP measurements with routine creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB) and troponin I (TnI) tests for the early diagnosis of non-ST-elevation MI (NSTEMI), as well as for determining its exclusion capacity. METHODS A total of 48 patients admitted to the emergency room within the first 12 hours of onset of ischaemic-type chest pain lasting more than 30 minutes and who did not have ST-segment elevation on electrocardiography (ECG) were included in the study. Definite diagnoses of NSTEMI were made in 24 patients as a result of 24-hour follow up, and the remaining 24 patients did not develop MI. RESULTS When various subgroups were analysed according to admission times, H-FABP was found to be a better diagnostic marker compared to CK-MB and TnI (accuracy index 85%), with a high sensitivity (79%) and specificity (93%) for early diagnosis ( ≤ six hours). The respective sensitivities of bedside H-FABP and TnI tests were 89 vs 33% (p < 0.05) for patients presenting within three hours of onset of symptoms. CONCLUSION Bedside H-FABP measurements may contribute to correct early diagnoses, as its levels are elevated soon following MI, and measurement is easy, with a rapid result.

Abstract
Spinal manipulation (SM) is a manual therapy technique frequently applied to treat musculoskeletal disorders because of its analgesic effects. It is defined by a manual procedure involving a directed impulse to move a joint past its physiologic range of movement (ROM). In this sense, to exceed the physiologic ROM of a joint could trigger tissue damage, which might represent an adverse effect associated with spinal manipulation. The present work tries to explore the presence of tissue damage associated with SM through the damage markers analysis. Thirty healthy subjects recruited at the University of Jaén were submitted to a placebo SM (control group; n = 10), a single lower cervical manipulation (cervical group; n = 10), and a thoracic manipulation (n = 10). Before the intervention, blood samples were extracted and centrifuged to obtain plasma and serum. The procedure was repeated right after the intervention and two hours after the intervention. Tissue damage markers creatine phosphokinase (CPK), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), C-reactive protein (CRP), troponin-I, myoglobin, neuron-specific enolase (NSE), and aldolase were determined in samples. Statistical analysis was performed through a 3 × 3 mixed-model ANOVA. Neither cervical manipulation nor thoracic manipulation did produce significant changes in the CPK, LDH, CRP, troponin-I, myoglobin, NSE, or aldolase blood levels. Our data suggest that the mechanical strain produced by SM seems to be innocuous to the joints and surrounding tissues in healthy subjects.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study is testing the value of H-FABP in the early diagnosis of ACS alone or with routinely used biomarkers such as myoglobin, CK-MB, and cTn I in patients who admitted to emergency department (ED) with complaint of chest pain and suspected acute coronary syndrome. MATERIAL AND METHODS This prospective and cross-sectional study was performed at the Emergency Department of University hospital between June 2009 and September 2010. Patients who were admitted with chest pain within first 48 hours and suspected ACS were enrolled to the study. Blood samples were taken for CK-MB, myoglobin, cTnI and H-FABP The patients were divided into two groups (ACS and non ACS). Statistical analyse were used for relation of biomarkers with diagnosis of ACS. RESULTS A 66 patients were included to the study. H-FAPB values were positive in 15.2% patients. When H-FABP was added to routinely used biomarkers in the diagnosis of ACS, increasing was observed in all sensitivity, specificity, PPV and NPV values. However, this increase was not statistically significant. CONCLUSION H-FABP did not provide any significant change in early diagnosis and exclusion of ACS diagnosis when used either alone or combination with routinely used biomarkers.

Abstract
A prospective case control study was undertaken to evaluate the diagnostic performance of serum heart-type fatty acid binding protein (HFABP) in comparison to cardiac TnT and TnI in 33 patients admitted with chest pain, diagnosed as NSTE-ACS (non ST elevation acute coronary syndrome) and 22 healthy controls. Area under the receiver operating curve (AUC) was highest for H-FABP (AUC 0.79; 95% CI 0.66-0.89) versus cTnI (AUC 0.73; 95% CI 0.59-0.84) and cTnT (AUC 0.71; 95% CI 0.57-0.83). The H-FABP level above 6.5 ng/mL showed 56.7% (CI 37.4-74.5) sensitivity, 0.5 (95% CI 0.3-0.7) negative likelihood ratio (-LR), 100% (CI 84.6-100.0) specificity, and 100% (CI 79.4-100.0) positive predictive value (PPV), 62.9% (CI 44.9-78.5) negative predictive value (NPV). cTnI level above 0.009 μg/L had 40% (CI 22.7-59.4) sensitivity, 0.6 (95% CI 0.4-0.8) -LR, 100% (CI 84.6-100.0) specificity, 100% (CI 73.5-100.0) PPV, and 55% (CI 38.5-70.7) NPV. cTnT showed 46.7% (CI 28.3-65.7) sensitivity, 0.5 (95% CI 0.4-0.7) -LR, 100% (CI 84.6-100.0) specificity, 100% (CI 76.8-100.0) PPV, and 57.9% (CI 40.8-73.7) NPV at level above 9 μg/L. +LR were 12.5 (95% CI 1.8-86.8), 1.7 (95% CI 1.0-3.0), and 1.2 (95% CI 0.8-1.9) for H-FABP, cTnI, and cTnT respectively. In conclusion measurement of H-FABP is a valuable tool in the early diagnosis of patients with chest pain (6-8 hrs) and seems to be a preferred biomarker in the differential diagnosis of NSTE-ACS. More studies are needed to determine whether serum H-FABP further improves diagnostic performance.

Abstract
[Purpose] Atrophy is a common phenomenon caused by prolonged muscle disuse associated
with bed-rest, aging, and immobilization. However, changes in the expression of
atrophy-related myoglobin are still poorly understood. In the present study, we examined
whether or not myoglobin expression is altered in the gastrocnemius muscles of rats after
seven days of cast immobilization. [Methods] We conducted a protein expression and
high-resolution differential proteomic analysis using, two-dimensional gel electrophoresis
and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight/time-of-flight mass
spectrometry, and western blotting. [Results] The density and expression of myoglobin
increased significantly more in atrophic gastrocnemius muscle strips than they did in the
control group. [Conclusion] The results suggest that cast immobilization-induced atrophy
may be related to changes in the expression of myoglobin in rat gastrocnemius muscles.

Abstract
Early diagnosis of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is important to guide appropriate therapy at a time when it is most likely to be of value. Accurate prognostic and risk stratification will facilitate high-risk patients to have early advanced diagnostic investigations and early appropriate interventions in a cost-effective and efficient manner, while those patients at low risk of ACS complications do not need such costly diagnostic tests and unnecessary hospital admission. Recent investigations have demonstrated that elevation of biomarkers upstream from acute-phase biomarkers, biomarkers of plaque destabilization and rupture, biomarkers of myocardial ischemia, necrosis, and dysfunction may provide an earlier assessment of patient risk and identify patients with higher risk of having an adverse event. This review provides an overview of the pathophysiology and clinical characteristics of several well-established biomarkers as well as emerging biomarkers that may have potential clinical utility in patients with ACS. Such emerging biomarkers hold promise and need to be more thoroughly evaluated before utilization in routine clinical practice.

Abstract
The complement system is activated following acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Heart fatty acid binding protein (H-FABP) is a sensitive early biomarker of myocardial necrosis that can be used to confirm or exclude a diagnosis of AMI and to monitor recurrent infarction. This study was designed to detect changes in C3, C4 and H-FABP after AMI. Forty patients with AMI and a control group of 40 apparently healthy people were included. Selections were based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. The baseline characteristics were not significantly different between the groups. Patients' blood samples were collected within 12 h of admission. Significant increases in C3 (AMI group 1.4260+0.04, healthy group 1.26040+0.04; p<0.05), C4 (AMI group 0.29305±0.013, healthy group 0.20860±0.012; p<0.05) and H-FABP (AMI group 12.3±1.69, healthy group 0.16±0.057; p<0.001) were seen in patients with AMI. The correlation between serum C3 and body mass index (BMI, r=0.33; p<0.05), serum C4 and BMI(r=0.313; p<0.05), serum C3 and total cholesterol high density lipoprotein (HDL, r=0.32; p<0.05), serum C4 and HbA1C (r=0.335; p<0.05) and serum C3 and troponin I (r= 0.325p<0.05) was found to be significant. But the correlation between serum C3 and waist:hip ratio (p=0.56), serum C4 and waist:hip ratio (p=0.83), serum C4 and total cholesterol HDL (p=0.993), serum C3 and HbA1C (p=0.440), serum C3 and random blood sugar (p=0.563), serum C4 and random blood sugar (p=0.828) and serum C4 and troponin I (p=0.373) was not significant. The significant complement activation detected in the plasma of patients with AMI indicated that complement plays a part in the pathogenesis of myocardial infarction. A significant increase of H-FABP improves the diagnosis of AMI.

Abstract
Background In this study, we aimed to investigate the importance of the use of heart-type fatty acid binding protein (H-FABP) in evaluating the myocardial damage in patients admitted to the emergency department with moderate to severe carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning. Methods All patients admitted to the emergency department with severe acute CO intoxication were enrolled the study. The H-FABP and cardiac biomarker levels were assessed at 0, 6th and 24th hours. The patients were divided into groups as those with normal echocardiography findings and with wall motion abnormalities. The differences between the groups for these parameters were compared. Results The mean age of 80 patients was 32.3 ± 12.9 years old. 42 of them were male. On admission, 29 (36.3%) had elevated serum troponin I levels and 56 (70.0%) had elevated serum H-FABP levels. At 6thhour, 4 (5.0%) of 80 patients had higher serum H-FABP levels and 23 (28.8%) of them had higher serum Troponin I levels than 0 hour. The patients with wall motion abnormality had significantly higher serum H-FABP levels compared to the patients with normal echocardiography findings at 6th and 24th hours (p = 0.001 and 0.009). While the serum COHb and H-FABP levels tended to decrease continuously in time (p < 0.001), the serum troponin I levels increased at 6th hour and then decreased at 24th hour (p = 0.017). Conclusion The serum H-FABP levels are useful in identifying the myocardial damage in patients admitted to the emergency department with moderate to severe carbon monoxide poisoning at an early phase.

Abstract
Measurement of circulating cardiac biomarkers has enabled early diagnosis and risk assessment of acute coronary syndrome. Heart type fatty acid binding protein (H-FABP) is a relatively novel marker for the diagnosis of myocardial injury. The purpose of the present study was to compare H-FABP with Troponin I (cTnI) and creatine kinase myocardial band (CK-MB) in determining myocardial injury in patients with early stage of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Blood was withdrawn one hour before and 3 hours after PCI from 40 patients to measure H-FABP, cTnI and CKMB. H-FABP was measured qualitatively. CK-MB and cTnI were measured by a sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Before PCI, H-FABP was found to be negative, while cTnI and CK-MB were found to be in normal ranges. Statistical analysis of measurements 3 hours after PCI revealed that H-FABP was significantly positive in 15 (37%) patients, while cTnI was elevated in 11 (27%) patients and CKMB was elevated in 8 (20%) patients. H-FABP is statistically more sensitive than cTnI and CK-MB at detecting myocardial injury after PCI.H-FABP can be used in early stages to detect myocardial injury caused by PCI. H-FABP is more sensitive than cTnI and CK-MB in determining myocardial injury due to PCI within 3 hours. H-FABP may help us stratify a patient's risk in early stages after PCI.

Abstract
Owing to their higher risk for cardiac death or ischemic complications, patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) must be identified from other causes of chest pain. Patients with acute coronary syndrome are divided into categories based on their electrocardiogram; those with new ST-segment elevation and those who present with ST-segment depression. The subgroups of patients with ST-segment elevation are candidates for immediate reperfusion, while fibrinolysis appears harmful for those with non-ST elevation myocardial infarction. There is increasing evidence to encourage appropriate risk stratification before deciding on a management strategy (invasive or conservative) for each patient. The TIMI, GRACE or PURSUIT risk models are recommended as useful for decisions regarding therapeutic options. Cardiac biomarkers are useful additions to these clinical tools to correctly risk stratify ACS patients. Cardiac troponin is the biomarker of choice to detect myocardial necrosis and is central to the universal definition of myocardial infarction. The introduction of troponin assays with a lower limit of detection will allow for earlier diagnosis of patients who present with chest pain. Analytical and clinical validations of these new assays are currently in progress. The question is whether the lower detection limit of the troponin assays will be able to indicate myocardial ischemia in the absence of myocardial necrosis. Previous to the development of ultrasensitive cardiac troponin assays free fatty acids unbound to albumin and ischemia modified albumin were proposed as biochemical markers of ischemia. Advances in our knowledge of the pathogenesis of acute coronary thrombosis have stimulated the development of new biomarkers. Markers of left ventricular performance (N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide) and inflammation (e.g. C-reactive protein) are generally recognized as risk indicators. Studies suggest that using a number of biomarkers clinicians can risk stratify patients over a broad range of short and long term cardiac events. Nevertheless, it is still under debate as to which biomarker combination is best preferred for risk prediction. This review will focus on recent practice guidelines for the management of patients with ACS as well as current advances in cardiac biomarkers, their integration into clinical care and their diagnostic, prognostic and therapeutic utility.

Abstract
Antioxidant enzymatic pathways form a critical network that detoxifies ROS in response to myocardial stress or injury. Genetic alteration of the expression levels of individual enzymes has yielded mixed results with regard to attenuating in vivo myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury, an extreme oxidative stress. We hypothesized that overexpression of an antioxidant network (AON) composed of SOD1, SOD3, and glutathione peroxidase (GSHPx)-1 would reduce myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury by limiting ROS-mediated lipid peroxidation and oxidative posttranslational modification (OPTM) of proteins. Both ex vivo and in vivo myocardial ischemia models were used to evaluate the effect of AON expression. After ischemia-reperfusion injury, infarct size was significantly reduced both ex vivo and in vivo, ROS formation, measured by dihydroethidium staining, was markedly decreased, ROS-mediated lipid peroxidation, measured by malondialdehyde production, was significantly limited, and OPTM of total myocardial proteins, including fatty acid-binding protein and sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca(²+)-ATPase (SERCA)2a, was markedly reduced in AON mice, which overexpress SOD1, SOD3, and GSHPx-1, compared with wild-type mice. These data demonstrate that concomitant SOD1, SOD3, and GSHPX-1 expression confers marked protection against myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury, reducing ROS, ROS-mediated lipid peroxidation, and OPTM of critical cardiac proteins, including cardiac fatty acid-binding protein and SERCA2a.

[PMID: 21208763 DOI: 10.1016/j.ajem.2010.11.022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 50] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/15/2010] [Revised: 11/08/2010] [Accepted: 11/14/2010] [Indexed: 10/18/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of multiple tests-heart-type fatty acid-binding protein (H-FABP), cardiac troponin I (cTnI), creatine kinase-MB, and myoglobin-for the early detection of acute myocardial infarction among patients who present to the emergency department with chest pain. METHODS A total of 1128 patients provided a total of 2924 venous blood samples. Patients with chest pain were nonselected and treated according to hospital guidelines. Additional cardiac biomarkers were assayed simultaneously at serial time points using the Cardiac Array (Randox Laboratories Ltd, Crumlin, United Kingdom). RESULTS Heart-type fatty acid-binding protein had the greatest sensitivity at 0 to 3 hours (64.3%) and 3 to 6 hours (85.3%) after chest pain onset. The combination of cTnI measurement with H-FABP increased sensitivity to 71.4% at 3 to 6 hours and 88.2% at 3 to 6 hours. Receiver operating characteristic curves demonstrated that H-FABP had the greatest diagnostic ability with area under the curve at 0 to 3 hours of 0.841 and 3 to 6 hours of 0.894. The specificity was also high for the combination of H-FABP with cTnI at these time points. Heart-type fatty acid-binding protein had the highest negative predictive values of all the individual markers: 0 to 3 hours (93%) and 3 to 6 hours (97%). Again, the combined measurement of cTnI with H-FABP increased the negative predictive values to 94% at 0 to 3 hours, 98% at 3 to 6 hours, and 99% at 6 to 12 hours. CONCLUSION Testing both H-FABP and cTnI using the Cardiac Array proved to be both a reliable diagnostic tool for the early diagnosis of myocardial infarction/acute coronary syndrome and also a valuable rule-out test for patients presenting at 3 to 6 hours after chest pain onset.

Abstract
Using heart-type fatty acid-binding protein (H-FABP) as an early cardiac marker for diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) soon after the onset of symptoms requires a rapid assay. A one-step test called, CardioDetect, is used for detection of H-FABP in whole blood sample. Thirty patients suspected of AMI presenting to the emergency department within 12 hours after onset were enrolled in this study. The diagnostic performance of CardioDetect was compared with different cardiac markers. There were 59.1% of patients with positive H-FABP within 6 hours after onset, while there were only 18.2% with positive cardiac troponin I (cTnI). Results indicated the diagnostic power of H-FABP for AMI was significantly higher than that of cTnI. The sensitivity of H-FABP was 81.8%, which was higher than those of the other cardiac markers, while the specificity was comparable. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve for H-FABP was 0.909, which was significantly larger than the others. With this rapid and sensitive immunotest, H-FABP could be soon introduced in clinical practice in combination with well-established markers like troponins.

Abstract
During recent times, heart-type fatty acid binding protein (hFABP) has gained increasing credence as a promising cardiac biomarker. This is largely due to its rapid myocardial release and subsequent clearance kinetics, which are superior to those of myoglobin and offer an earlier diagnostic window than the troponins. Realization of its full diagnostic and prognostic potential is dependent on accessibility to robust hFABP-specific assays. Here we describe a rational strategy for generation and screening of hFABP-specific avian-derived recombinant antibodies. These antibodies were confirmed to be exquisitely specific for hFABP, with no cross-reactivity observed in a representative panel of the most homologous non-heart-type FABP isoforms. All of the antibodies tested exhibited single-figure nanomolar affinities, and their analytical potential was demonstrated in a simple inhibition enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) format that returned an impressive limit of quantitation (LOQ) value of 1.9 ng/ml. The cumulative results underline the potential value of these antibodies as enabling reagents for use in a variety of immunodiagnostic configurations.

Abstract
We compared an automated quantitative heart-type fatty acid-binding protein (H-FABP) assay with other cardiac-marker assays to examine its usefulness as an early diagnostic marker of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Serum samples for cardiac troponin T (cTnT), creatine kinase-MB isozyme (CK-MB), myoglobin, and H-FABP were obtained from 64 patients with AMI and 53 patients with other conditions (control group). H-FABP was measured by using 2 immunoassays, the H-FABP enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA; Biocheck, Foster City, CA) and the H-FABP latex turbidimetric immunoassay (LTIA; HBI, Anyang, Korea). Sensitivities of assays for cTnT, CK-MB, myoglobin, H-FABP (by ELISA), H-FABP (by LTIA), and electrocardiogram (ECG) for the diagnosis of AMI at hospital admission were 39.1%, 59.4%, 64.1%, 68.7%, 70.3%, and 54.7%, respectively. Specificities of cTnT, CK-MB, myoglobin, H-FABP (by ELISA), H-FABP (by LTIA), and ECG were 98.1%, 71.7%, 81.1%, 77.4%, 90.6%, and 92.5%, respectively. The automated H-FABP (by LTIA) is superior to cTnT, CK-MB, myoglobin, and H-FABP (by ELISA) tests for the diagnosis of AMI in patients admitted within 4 hours from the onset of chest pain.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the efficacies of point-of-care test of heart-type fatty-acid binding protein (H-FABP) and its combinations with the conventional biomarkers in the diagnosis of early acute myocardial infarction (AMI). METHODS 227 patients suspected of AMI were consecutively recruited in two centers. Biomarkers including H-FABP, myoglobin (MYO), creatine kinase-myocardial band (CK-MB) and cardiac troponin T (cTnT) were determined simultaneously at admission. AMI was defined according to the universal definition of myocardial infarction. Chi-Square test was adopted for the analysis. RESULTS In patients presenting within 12 h of symptom onset, the sensitivity of H-FABP[93.0% (95% CI: 86.6%-96.9%)] was significantly higher than that of initial CK-MB [67.5% (95% CI: 58.1%-76.0%), P<0.0001], cTnT [69.3% (95%CI: 60.0%-77.6%), P<0.0001] and MYO [68.6% (95% CI: 54.1%-80.9%), P<0.05]. The negative predictive value of H-FABP [92.8% (95%CI: 86.3%-96.8%)] was significantly higher than that of initial CK-MB [74.7% (95% CI: 66.8%-81.5%), P<0.001] and cTnT [75.9% (95% CI: 68.1%-82.6%), P<0.001]. The sensitivity of H-FABP+cTnT combination [94.7% (95% CI: 88.9%-98.0%)] was significantly higher than that of admission cTnT [69.3% (95% CI: 60.0%-77.6%), P<0.0001], CK-MB+cTnT [75.4% (95% CI: 66.5%-83.0%), P<0.0001] and MYO+CK-MB+cTnT [74.5% (95% CI: 60.4%-85.7%), P<0.05]. The negative predictive value of H-FABP+cTnT [94.5% (95% CI: 88.4%-98.0%] was significantly higher than that of initial cTnT [75.9% (95% CI: 68.1%-82.6%), P<0.001] and CK-MB+cTnT [79.1% (95% CI: 71.2%-85.6%), P<0.001]. Subgroup analysis showed that the superiorities of both the sensitivities and the negative predictive values of H-FABP and H-FABP+cTnT combination occurred only in patients who presented within 6 h of the symptom onset. CONCLUSION Point-of-care test of H-FABP can be used as a valuable biomarker to detect or exclude an early-stage AMI. Combining H-FABP and cTnT provides the best performance for early AMI diagnosis.

Abstract
Rapid assessment of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) was successfully demonstrated using an improved superparamagnetic polymer microsphere-assisted sandwich fluoroimmunoassay to detect two early cardiac markers-myoglobin and human heart-type fatty acid binding protein (H-FABP). This assay used a preparation of superparamagnetic poly(styrene-divinylbenzene-acrylamide) microspheres, glutaraldehyde-coupled capture antibodies (monoclonal anti-myoglobin 7C3 and anti-H-FABP 10E1) grafted onto the polymer microspheres, and a sequential sandwich fluoroimmunoassay using detection antibodies (FITC-labeled anti-myoglobin 4E2 and FITC-labeled anti-H-FABP 9F3). Characterization of the polymer microspheres by TEM, SEM and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) showed that the microspheres were uniformly round with an average diameter of 1.12 microm, and had a Fe(3)O(4)-polymer core-shell structure (shell thickness was about 84 nm) with 0.22 mmol/g amino groups on their surfaces. The magnetic behavior of the Fe(3)O(4)-polymer microspheres was superparamagnetic (M(s)=13 emu/g, H(c)=13.1 Oe). Fluorescence images of the post-immunoassay microspheres recorded using a confocal laser-scanning microscope showed that the average fluorescence intensity was correlated with the concentration of cardiac markers, in agreement with the results obtained by an F-4500 FL spectrophotometer; this indicated that the fluoroimmunoassay could be used to semi-quantitatively detect both myoglobin and H-FABP. The detection limit was 25 ng/mL for myoglobin and 1 ng/mL for H-FABP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND: Evaluation of patients who present to the hospital with acute undifferentiated chest pain or other symptoms and signs suggestive of Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) is often a clinical challenge. The initial assessment, requiring a focused history (including risk factors analysis), a physical examination, an electrocardiogram (EKG) and serum cardiac marker determination, is time-consuming and troublesome. Recent investigations have indicated that increases in biomarkers of necrosis, inflammation, ischemia and myocardial stretch may provide earlier assessment of overall patient risk, help in identifying the adequate diagnostic and therapeutic management for each patient and allow for prevention of substantial numbers of new events. APPROACH AND CONTENT: The purpose of this review is to provide an overview of the characteristics of several biomarkers that may have potential clinical utility to identify ACS patients. Patho-physiology, analytical and clinical characteristics have been evaluated for each marker, underlying the properties for potential routine clinical use. SUMMARY: The biomarkers discussed in this review are promising and might lead to improved diagnosis and risk stratification of patients with ACS, however their clinical application requires further studies. It is important to define their clinical role as diagnostic markers, their predictive value and the specificity, standardization and detection limits of the assays.
