Abstract
The impact of circadian rhythms on cardiovascular function and disease development is well established, with numerous studies in genetically modified animals emphasizing the circadian molecular clock's significance in the pathogenesis and pathophysiology of myocardial ischemia and heart failure progression. However, translational preclinical studies targeting the heart's circadian biology are just now emerging and are leading to the development of a novel field of medicine termed circadian medicine. In this review, we explore circadian molecular mechanisms and novel therapies, including (1) intense light, (2) small molecules modulating the circadian mechanism, and (3) chronotherapies such as cardiovascular drugs and meal timings. These promise significant clinical translation in circadian medicine for cardiovascular disease. (4) Additionally, we address the differential functioning of the circadian mechanism in males versus females, emphasizing the consideration of biological sex, gender, and aging in circadian therapies for cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
Stroke, a debilitating condition often leading to long-term disability, poses a substantial global concern and formidable challenge. The increasing incidence of stroke has drawn the attention of medical researchers and neurologists worldwide. Circadian rhythms have emerged as pivotal factors influencing stroke's onset, pathogenesis, treatment, and outcomes. To gain deeper insights into stroke, it is imperative to explore the intricate connection between circadian rhythms and stroke, spanning from molecular mechanisms to pathophysiological processes. Despite existing studies linking circadian rhythm to stroke onset, there remains a paucity of comprehensive reviews exploring its role in pathogenesis, treatment, and prognosis. This review undertakes a narrative analysis of studies investigating the relationship between circadian variation and stroke onset. It delves into the roles of various physiological factors, including blood pressure, coagulation profiles, blood cells, catecholamines, cortisol, and the timing of antihypertensive medication, which contribute to variations in circadian-related stroke risk. At a molecular level, the review elucidates the involvement of melatonin, circadian genes, and glial cells in the pathophysiology. Furthermore, it provides insights into the diverse factors influencing stroke treatment and outcomes within the context of circadian variation. The review underscores the importance of considering circadian rhythms when determining the timing of stroke interventions, emphasizing the necessity for personalized stroke management strategies that incorporate circadian rhythms. It offers valuable insights into potential molecular targets and highlights areas that require further exploration to enhance our understanding of the underlying pathophysiology. In comparison to the published literature, this manuscript distinguishes itself through its coverage of circadian rhythms' impact on stroke across the entire clinical spectrum. It presents a unique synthesis of epidemiological, clinical, molecular, and cellular evidence, underscoring their collective significance.

Abstract
To date, it is well known that a significant number of diseases of cardiovascular genesis (coronary heart disease, myocardial infarction, cardiomyopathy, Takotsubo syndrome, heart failure, etc.) and extra-cardiac genesis (renal failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, sepsis, diabetes mellitus, etc.) cause injury to contractile cells of the heart muscle (myocardial cells). The most sensitive and specific criteria for proving myocardial cell injury are cardiospecific troponins (CSTns) - CSTnI and CSTnT. According to the current clinical recommendations of the European, American, and Russian Cardiological Communities, CSTnI and CSTnT are the main biomarkers for early diagnosis of myocardial infarction. Hypertension is one of the most dangerous and common risk factors for the development of cardiovascular pathologies and is associated with a high risk of dangerous cardiovascular complications. Therefore, there is an urgent need to search for new biomarkers for the timely assessment of the prognosis of patients with hypertension. This mini-review aims to substantiate the possibilities of using the cardiomarkers (CSTnI and CSTnT) to assess the prognosis of patients suffering from hypertension and to discuss potential mechanisms that cause injury to myocardial cells and increase serum levels of CSTnI and CSTnT. This is a narrative mini-review, which was prepared using the following databases: Pubmed/Medline, PubMed Central, Embase, Scopus, and Web of Science. The following keywords were used in the literature search: "myocardial cells", "injury", "damage", and "hypertension" in combination with the terms "mechanisms of injury" "predictive significance", "cardiac troponins", or "cardiospecific troponins".

Abstract
The circadian clock plays a prominent role in neurons during development and throughout aging. This review covers topics pertinent to the role of 24-h rhythms in neuronal development and function, and their tendency to decline with aging. Pharmacological or behavioral modification that augment the function of our internal clock may be central to decline of cognitive disease and to future chronotherapy for aging-related diseases of the central nervous system.

Abstract
Atherosclerosis, a chronic inflammatory disease of the arteries that appears to have been as prevalent in ancient as in modern civilizations, is predisposing to life-threatening and life-ending cardiac and vascular complications, such as myocardial and cerebral infarctions. The pathogenesis of atherosclerosis involves intima plaque buildup caused by vascular endothelial dysfunction, cholesterol deposition, smooth muscle proliferation, inflammatory cell infiltration and connective tissue accumulation. Hypertension is an independent and controllable risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD). Conversely, atherosclerosis hardens the arterial wall and raises arterial blood pressure. Many CVD patients experience both atherosclerosis and hypertension and are prescribed medications to concurrently mitigate the two disease conditions. A substantial number of publications document that many pathophysiological changes caused by atherosclerosis and hypertension occur in a manner dependent upon circadian clocks or clock gene products. This article reviews progress in the research of circadian regulation of vascular cell function, inflammation, hemostasis and atherothrombosis. In particular, it delineates the relationship of circadian organization with signal transduction and activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system as well as disturbance of the sleep/wake circadian rhythm, as exemplified by shift work, metabolic syndromes and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), as promoters and mechanisms of atherogenesis and risk for non-fatal and fatal CVD outcomes. This article additionally updates advances in the clinical management of key biological processes of atherosclerosis to optimally achieve suppression of atherogenesis through chronotherapeutic control of atherogenic/hypertensive pathological sequelae.

Abstract
Chronopharmacology of arterial hypertension impacts the long-term cardiovascular risk of hypertensive subjects. Therefore, clinical and computational studies have proposed optimizing antihypertensive medications' dosing time (Ta). However, the causes and mechanisms underlying the Ta-dependency antihypertensive effect have not been elucidated. Here we propose using a Ta- dependent effect model to understand and predict the antihypertensive effect of valsartan and aspirin throughout the day in subjects with grade I or II essential hypertension. The model based on physiological regulation mechanisms includes a periodic function for each parameter that changes significantly after treatment. Circadian variations of parameters depending on the dosing time allowed the determination of regulation mechanisms dependent on the circadian rhythm that were most relevant for the action of each drug. In the case of valsartan, it is the regulation of vasodilation and systemic vascular resistance. In the case of aspirin, the antithrombotic effect generates changes in the sensitivity of systemic vascular resistance and heart rate to changes in physical activity. Dosing time-dependent models predict a more significant effect on systemic vascular resistance and blood pressure when administering valsartan or aspirin at bedtime. However, circadian dependence on the regulation mechanisms showed different sensitivity of their circadian parameters and shapes of functions, presenting different phase shifts and amplitude. Therefore, different mechanisms of action and pharmacokinetic properties of each drug can generate different profiles of Ta-dependence of antihypertensive effect and optimal dosing times.

Diurnal Oscillations of Fibrinolytic Parameters in Patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction and Their Relation to Platelet Reactivity: Preliminary Insights. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11237105. [PMID: 36498682 PMCID: PMC9740563 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11237105] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2022] [Revised: 11/24/2022] [Accepted: 11/25/2022] [Indexed: 12/03/2022] Open
Abstract
There is limited information about diurnal changes in fibrinolysis parameters after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and their relationship with on-treatment platelet reactivity. The aim of this study was to assess tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA), plasminogen activator inhibitor type-1 (PAI-1), α2-antiplasmin (α2-AP) activity, and plasmin-antiplasmin (PAP) complexes in 30 AMI patients taking dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT), i.e., acetylsalicylic acid and clopidogrel. Fibrinolytic parameters were assessed at four time points (6 a.m., 10 a.m., 2 p.m., and 7 p.m.) on the third day after AMI using immunoenzymatic methods. Moreover, platelet reactivity was measured using multiple-electrode aggregometry, to assess potential differences in fibrinolytic parameters in low/high on-aspirin platelet reactivity and low/high on-clopidogrel platelet reactivity subgroups of patients. We detected significant diurnal oscillations in t-PA and PAI-1 levels in the whole study group. However, PAP complexes and α2-AP activity were similar at the analyzed time points. Our study reveals a potential impact of DAPT on the time course of fibrinolytic parameters, especially regarding clopidogrel. We suggest the presence of diurnal variations in t-PA and PAI-1 concentrations in AMI patients, with the highest levels midmorning, regardless of platelet reactivity. Significantly elevated levels of PAI-1 during the evening hours in clopidogrel-resistant patients may increase the risk of thrombosis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Elevated nocturnal blood pressure (BP) is closely associated with increased risk of cardiovascular (CV) events. Circulating extracellular vesicles (EVs) have been proposed as a potential CV risk biomarker and shown to correlate with BP. The present study aimed to assess whether a reduction in BP is paralleled by respective changes in EVs. METHODS Fifty-five hypertensive patients (age: 57.7 ± 14.1 years) were included in the study. EVs and BP were assessed at baseline and at 12 weeks follow-up. Interventions to lower BP included advice on life-style modification only or life-style advice combined with additional pharmacotherapy. EVs were evaluated by flow cytometry (CD41+/Annexin V+) and BP by unobserved automated office BP and ambulatory BP monitoring. RESULTS Nocturnal systolic BP correlated with EV levels at baseline ( P = 0.01). Multivariable regression models showed that changes in nocturnal systolic BP (adjusted R2 = 0.23; P = 0.01) and diastolic BP (adjusted R2 = 0.18; P = 0.02) were associated with respective changes in EV levels. Furthermore, intervention-induced improvement of systolic dipping was associated with a reduction in EVs in the univariate analysis (adjusted R2 = 0.06; P = 0.03). In contrast, systolic office, 24 h- and daytime-BP did not show significant associations with EVs. Patients whose medication was up-titrated at baseline showed a trend towards lower EV levels at follow-up (absolute change of -1.7 ± 1.3 EV/μl; P = 0.057). CONCLUSIONS Circulating platelet-derived EVs were positively associated with nocturnal BP and therapy-induced changes over a 12-week treatment period. EVs may provide an integrated measure of BP changes achieved with pharmacotherapy.

Abstract
It is well known that many pathological conditions of both cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) (coronary heart disease, myocardial infarction, arrhythmias, myocarditis, cardiomyopathy, etc.) and non-cardiac (sepsis, anemia, kidney diseases, diabetes mellitus, etc.) origin in the course of their development cause injury to contractile cardiac muscle cells - myocardial cells (MCs). One of the most sensitive and specific criteria for detecting MC injury are cardiospecific troponins (CTs), which are regulatory protein molecules that are released into the blood serum from MC upon their death or injury. Current methods for determining CTs are called high-sensitive ones, and their main advantage is a very low minimum detectable concentration (limit of detection) (average 1 - 10 ng/L or less), which allows early detection of minor MC injury at the earliest stages of CVDs, and therefore they can change the understanding of disease development mechanisms and open up new diagnostic possibilities. One of the most common and dangerous early diseases of the cardiovascular system is hypertension (HT). The novelty of this article lies in the discussion of a new diagnostic direction - predicting the risk of developing CVDs and their dangerous complications in patients with HT by determining the concentration of CTs. In addition, pathophysiological mechanisms underlying MC injury and the release of CTs into the bloodstream and the elimination of CTs into the urine are proposed. This information will contribute to additional fundamental and clinical research to verify the new diagnostic possibility of using CTs in clinical practice (for the management of patients with HT).

Abstract
Background. Many pathological conditions of both cardiovascular and non-cardiac origin in the course of their development cause damage to contractile cardiac muscle cells—cardiac myocytes (CMCs). One of the most sensitive and specific criteria for detecting CMCs are cardiac troponins (CTs), which are regulatory protein molecules that are released into the blood serum from CMCs upon their death or damage. New (high-sensitive) methods for detecting CTs allow the detection of minor CMCs damages at the earliest stages of cardiovascular diseases and can therefore change the understanding of disease development mechanisms and open up new diagnostic possibilities. One of the most common and dangerous early diseases of the cardiovascular system is arterial hypertension. The purpose of this paper is to summarize the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying CMCs damage and CTs release into the bloodstream in the case of arterial hypertension and to state the clinical significance of increased CTs levels in patients with arterial hypertension. Materials and methods. This is a descriptive review, which was prepared using the following databases: Embase, Pubmed/Medline and Web of Science. The following key words were used in the literature search: “myocardial injury” and “arterial hypertension” in combination with the terms “cardiac troponins” and “mechanisms of increase”. Conclusions. According to a literature analysis, CMCs damage and CTs release in the case of arterial hypertension occur according to the following pathophysiological mechanisms: myocardial hypertrophy, CMCs apoptosis, damage to the CMC cell membrane and increase in its permeability for CTs molecules, as well as changes in the glomerular filtration rate. Most often, increased CTs serum levels in case of arterial hypertension indicate an unfavorable prognosis. Data on the CTs predictive significance in case of arterial hypertension open the prospects for the use of these biomarkers in the choice of patient management plans.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Circadian fluctuations in thrombogenicity and hemostasis play a role in acute cardiovascular thrombotic events occurring in the early morning hours. There is a lack of data assessing thrombogenicity, platelet function, and hemodynamics to investigate diurnal variations in a high cardiovascular risk population. METHODS This was an exploratory, single-center study conducted in aspirin-treated patients with Type II Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) (n = 37) with documented vascular disease and/or multiple cardiovascular risk factors. Hemodynamic monitoring and blood sample collection for thromboelastography (TEG) and platelet function testing were done serially at 7-9 AM (morning), 7-9 PM (evening), 11 PM-1 AM (night), and at 5-7 AM (awakening). RESULTS R-value measured by TEG was shorter during awakening hours than during the night and day hours (p < 0.05). There were no changes in platelet reactivity in response to arachidonic acid, adenosine diphosphate, and collagen between time points. Pulse pressure (PP) was highest during awakening hours (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION Study findings provide a mechanistic explanation for increased thrombotic events observed in the early waking hours among diabetics with multiple cardiovascular risk factors. The role of chronotherapy in reducing coagulability and PP to improve clinical outcomes should be explored.

Abstract
Background Whilst there has been investigation into the effect of time of the day on platelet activation and function in healthy individuals, there is a lack of studies in the literature to examine this relationship among platelet donors. Methods We assessed the extent of platelet activation by percentage of platelets with surface-expressed P-selectin and flow cytometry in samples of whole blood from a group of qualified platelet donors (n = 84). Results The mean (SD) percentage of activated platelets in the pre-donation blood samples was 1.85 ± 1.57% (range 0.2–7.5%). In univariate analyses, the percentage of activated platelets was significantly and inversely correlated with the collection time (ie, the time of day blood samples were collected) (r = –0.35, p = 0.001) and positively correlated to mean platelet volume (MPV) (r = 0.29, p = 0.008). A weaker positive correlation was also observed with ABO blood group (r = 0.228, p = 0.036). Analysis of the collection time as a categorical variable showed a greater degree of activated platelets in samples collected between 8:00 h and 10:00 h than in samples collected during the hours of >10:00 h ≤14:00 h (2.5 ± 1.8 versus 1.1 ± 0.74, p < 0.001). In the adjusted linear regression model, collection time was a significant independent predictor of platelet activation state in whole blood (β = –0.26; p < 0.001), as did ABO blood group (β = 0.55; p = 0.019). Conclusion Our results show that collection time is the most important predictor of platelet activation state in pre-donation whole blood among platelet donors. This work may have implications for optimizing the timing of platelet donation.

[PMID: 34563981 DOI: 10.1016/j.thromres.2021.09.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2021] [Revised: 09/06/2021] [Accepted: 09/16/2021] [Indexed: 10/20/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Human body functions exhibit a circadian rhythm generated in peripheral cells and synchronized by the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN), which mostly is entrained by the daily light/dark cycles. Activity, meals and posture are capable of interfering with the endogenous circadian rhythm of coagulation parameters. An increasing number of human disorders show a circadian component, and epidemiological studies find cardiovascular events to peak in the morning hours. The aim was to review the circadian rhythms impact on fibrinolysis and coagulation in healthy individuals and cardiovascular patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total number of 25 studies were identified where 8 enrolled cardiovascular patients with or without healthy individuals. Using a MeSH-search in MEDLINE PubMed. Only original peer-reviewed papers were included. RESULTS Results showed substantial variance with respect to exhibition of circadian rhythms and/or peak/trough times. Circadian rhythms of fibrinolysis were less pronounced in cardiovascular patients than in healthy individuals with decreased levels in the morning hours compared to healthy inducing higher risk of blood clotting. CONCLUSIONS Because of small studied group sizes and failure to control for entraining factors, larger studies are needed to fully establish the effects of the circadian rhythm on especially coagulation. The findings of chronobiologic rhythms in coagulation and fibrinolysis could suggest a need for a chrono-pharmacological approach when treating/preventing cardiovascular diseases.

Cardiac Troponins Metabolism: From Biochemical Mechanisms to Clinical Practice (Literature Review). Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms222010928. [PMID: 34681585 PMCID: PMC8535601 DOI: 10.3390/ijms222010928] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/29/2021] [Revised: 10/04/2021] [Accepted: 10/07/2021] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
The metabolic processes of endo- and exogenous compounds play an important role in diagnosing and treating patients since many metabolites are laboratory biomarkers and/or targets for therapeutic agents. Cardiac troponins are one of the most critical biomarkers to diagnose cardiovascular diseases, including acute myocardial infarction. The study of troponin metabolism is of great interest as it opens up new possibilities for optimizing laboratory diagnostics. This article discusses in detail the key stages of the cardiac troponins metabolism, in particular the mechanisms of release from a healthy myocardium, mechanisms of circulation in the bloodstream, possible mechanisms of troponin penetration into other biological fluids (oral fluid, cerebrospinal fluid, pericardial and amniotic fluids), mechanisms of elimination of cardiac troponins from the blood, and daily changes in the levels of troponins in the blood. Considering these aspects of cardiac troponin metabolism, attention is focused on the potential value for clinical practice.

Williams PT. Quantile-specific heritability of plasminogen activator inhibitor type-1 (PAI-1, aka SERPINE1) and other hemostatic factors. J Thromb Haemost 2021; 19:2559-2571. [PMID: 34273240 DOI: 10.1111/jth.15468] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/10/2021] [Revised: 07/07/2021] [Accepted: 07/16/2021] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Plasminogen activator inhibitor type-1 (PAI-1, aka SERPINE1) is a moderately heritable glycoprotein that regulates fibrin clot dissolution (fibrinolysis). OBJECTIVES Test whether the heritabilities (h2 ) of PAI-1 and other hemostatic factors are constant throughout their distribution or whether they are quantile-specific (i.e., a larger or smaller h2 depending on whether their concentrations are high or low). METHODS Quantile regression was applied to 5606 parent-offspring pairs and 5310 full siblings of the Framingham Heart Study. Quantile-specific heritability was estimated from the parent-offspring regression slope (βPO , h2 = 2βPO /(1+rspouse )) and the full-sib regression slope (βFS , h2 = {(1+8rspouse βFS )0.5 -1}/(2rspouse )). RESULTS Heritability (h2 ± SE) increased significantly with increasing percentiles of the offspring's age- and sex-adjusted PAI-1 distribution when estimated from βPO (plinear trend = 0.0001): 0.09 ± 0.02 at the 10th, 0.09 ± 0.02 at the 25th, 0.16 ± 0.02 at the 50th, 0.29 ± 0.04 at the 75th, and 0.26 ± 0.08 at the 90th percentile of the PAI-1 distribution, and when estimated from βFS (plinear trend = 6.5x10-7 ). There was no significant evidence for quantile-specific heritability for factor VII (plinear trend = 0.35), D-dimer (plinear trend = 0.08), tPA (plinear trend = 0.74), or von Willebrand factor (plinear trend = 0.79). CONCLUSION Higher mean plasma PAI-1 antigen concentrations tend to accentuate genetic effects (quantile-dependent expressivity), which is consistent with the greater reported differences in PAI-1 concentrations between rs1799889 SERPINE1 (4G/5G) genotypes in patients with osteonecrosis, meningococcal sepsis, obesity, prior myocardial infarction, deep vein thrombosis, and polycystic ovarian syndrome than in healthy controls. It is also consistent with the greater increases in PAI-1 concentrations in 4G-allele carriers than 5G/5G homozygotes following fibrinolytic treatment, low-salt intake, and high saturated fat intake.

Abstract
The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic has affected nearly 28 million people in the United States and has caused more than five hundred thousand deaths as of February 21, 2021. As the novel coronavirus continues to take its toll in the United States and all across the globe, particularly among the elderly (>65 years), clinicians and translational researchers are taking a closer look at the nexus of sleep, circadian rhythms and immunity that may contribute toward a more severe coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19). SARS-CoV-2-induced multi-organ failure affects both central and peripheral organs, causing increased mortality in the elderly. However, whether differences in sleep, circadian rhythms, and immunity between older and younger individuals contribute to the age-related differences in systemic dysregulation of target organs observed in SARS-CoV-2 infection remain largely unknown. Current literature demonstrates the emerging role of sleep, circadian rhythms, and immunity in the development of chronic pulmonary diseases and respiratory infections in human and mouse models. The exact mechanism underlying acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and other cardiopulmonary complications in elderly patients in combination with associated comorbidities remain unclear. Nevertheless, understanding the critical role of sleep, circadian clock dysfunction in target organs, and immune status of patients with SARS-CoV-2 may provide novel insights into possible therapies. Chronotherapy is an emerging concept that is gaining attention in sleep medicine. Accumulating evidence suggests that nearly half of all physiological functions follow a strict daily rhythm. However, healthcare professionals rarely take implementing timed-administration of drugs into consideration. In this review, we summarize recent findings directly relating to the contributing roles of sleep, circadian rhythms and immune response in modulating infectious disease processes, and integrate chronotherapy in the discussion of the potential drugs that can be repurposed to improve the treatment and management of COVID-19.

Front Pharmacol 2021; 12:640185. [PMID: 34220496 PMCID: PMC8245685 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2021.640185] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/10/2020] [Accepted: 06/07/2021] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Atherosclerosis is considered a disease caused by a chronic inflammation, associated with endothelial dysfunction, and several mediators of inflammation are up-regulated in subjects with atherosclerotic disease. Healthy, intact endothelium exhibits an antithrombotic, protective surface between the vascular lumen and vascular smooth muscle cells in the vessel wall. Oxidative stress is an imbalance between anti- and prooxidants, with a subsequent increase of reactive oxygen species, leading to tissue damage. The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system is of vital importance in the pathobiology of vascular disease. Convincing data indicate that angiotensin II accelerates hypertension and augments the production of reactive oxygen species. This leads to the generation of a proinflammatory phenotype in human endothelial and vascular smooth muscle cells by the up-regulation of adhesion molecules, chemokines and cytokines. In addition, angiotensin II also seems to increase thrombin generation, possibly via a direct impact on tissue factor. However, the mechanism of cross-talk between inflammation and haemostasis can also contribute to prothrombotic states in inflammatory environments. Thus, blocking of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system might be an approach to reduce both inflammatory and thrombotic complications in high-risk patients. During COVID-19, the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system may be activated. The levels of angiotensin II could contribute to the ongoing inflammation, which might result in a cytokine storm, a complication that significantly impairs prognosis. At the outbreak of COVID-19 concerns were raised about the use of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors and angiotensin receptor blocker drugs in patients with COVID-19 and hypertension or other cardiovascular comorbidities. However, the present evidence is in favor of continuing to use of these drugs. Based on experimental evidence, blocking the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system might even exert a potentially protective influence in the setting of COVID-19.

Abstract
Coagulation–fibrinolytic system activity shows daily rhythmicity, with hypercoagulability in the morning and hypocoagulability in the evening. Consequently, the efficacy of anticoagulants may be influenced by their dosing time. Edoxaban, a selective inhibitor of the active form of coagulation factor X (FXa), is taken orally once daily, but the optimal dosing time is unknown. This study evaluated the dosing time-dependent effects of edoxaban on coagulation activity and thrombus formation in rats. Edoxaban (10 mg/kg) or vehicle was administered to Wistar rats at zeitgeber time (ZT)-2 (beginning of the light phase) or ZT14 (beginning of the dark phase), followed by blood collection at ZT4, ZT10, ZT16, or ZT22, to measure the activity of coagulation factors and edoxaban concentrations, or followed by inferior vena cava ligations at ZT4 or ZT16, to assess the efficacy of edoxaban against thrombus formation. Coagulation FX activity was high during the light phase, and a single dose of edoxaban administered at ZT2 inhibited FX activity and thrombus formation more potently compared with the same dose administered at ZT14. The inhibitory effects during the light phase could be attributed, at least in part, to the high blood concentration of edoxaban achieved by dosing at ZT2. Morning dosing of edoxaban leads to a high blood concentration of the drug during the morning hours and thus may better counteract the hypercoagulability and hypofibrinolytic activity characteristic of the morning hours. Optimizing the dosing time may contribute to improving the efficacy of edoxaban.

Abstract
Every organism has an intrinsic biological rhythm that orchestrates biological processes in adjusting to daily environmental changes. Circadian rhythms are maintained by networks of molecular clocks throughout the core and peripheral tissues, including immune cells, blood vessels, and perivascular adipose tissues. Recent findings have suggested strong correlations between the circadian clock and cardiovascular diseases. Desynchronization between the circadian rhythm and body metabolism contributes to the development of cardiovascular diseases including arteriosclerosis and thrombosis. Circadian rhythms are involved in controlling inflammatory processes and metabolisms, which can influence the pathology of arteriosclerosis and thrombosis. Circadian clock genes are critical in maintaining the robust relationship between diurnal variation and the cardiovascular system. The circadian machinery in the vascular system may be a novel therapeutic target for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases. The research on circadian rhythms in cardiovascular diseases is still progressing. In this review, we briefly summarize recent studies on circadian rhythms and cardiovascular homeostasis, focusing on the circadian control of inflammatory processes and metabolisms. Based on the recent findings, we discuss the potential target molecules for future therapeutic strategies against cardiovascular diseases by targeting the circadian clock.

Abstract
Streptococcus oralis (S. oralis) has been recognized as a fatal pathogen to cause multiorgan failure by contributing to the formation of microthrombus. Coagulation and fibrinolysis systems have been found under the control of circadian clock genes. This study aimed to explore the correlation between BMAL1 and coagulation factor biosynthesis in S. oralis infection. Mice were administered S. oralis to induce sepsis, and HepG2 cells were also infected by S. oralis. The expression of BMAL1 of hepatocytes was downregulated in the S. oralis infection group, leading to the downregulation of coagulation factor VII (FVII) and the upregulation of the coagulation factor XII (FXII) in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, we confirmed that the deficiency of BAML1 contributed to the elevation of FVII and the decline in FXII by constructing BMAL1-deficiency (Bmal1-/-) mice. The current result showed that BMAL1 regulates FVII directly. Thus, a novel insight into the coagulation abnormality in S. oralis infection was gained that may optimize the treatment of sepsis by rescuing the expression of BMAL1 in the liver.

Postprandial factor VII activation does not increase plasma concentrations of prothrombin fragment 1 + 2 in patients with morbid obesity. Thromb Res 2020; 196:260-267. [PMID: 32920297 DOI: 10.1016/j.thromres.2020.08.044] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/09/2020] [Revised: 06/16/2020] [Accepted: 08/31/2020] [Indexed: 12/18/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Increased postprandial factor VII activation is observed after high-fat meals, but is not accompanied by thrombin formation in normal weight individuals. Obesity is associated with a higher circulating concentration of tissue factor (TF) and postprandial uptake of lipopolysaccharide (LPS), and this may increase thrombin formation after high-fat meals. We therefore compared postprandial effects of high-fat meals and low-fat meals on biomarkers of coagulation activation in patients with morbid obesity and investigated whether the response was associated with the gut bacteria composition. MATERIALS AND METHODS A controlled cross-over study was conducted in obese patients (15 women, 5 men, mean BMI = 44.1 kg/m2), where high-fat meals (67 E% fat) and low-fat meals (16 E% fat) were served at 8:15 and 10:00 in a random order on two study days within one week. Blood samples were collected at 08:00 (fasting), 12:00, and 14:00 and analysed for triglycerides, activated FVII (FVIIa), TF, FVIIa-antithrombin (FVIIa-AT), prothrombin fragment 1 + 2 (F1+2), and TF pathway inhibitor (TFPI). The gut bacteria composition, measured as gram-negative bacteria and diversity, was analysed in faecal samples. RESULTS Triglycerides, FVIIa, and FVIIa-AT increased significantly after high-fat meals, whereas F1 + 2 decreased equally and significantly over time after both meals. There were no significant changes in TF and TFPI over time. The postprandial changes in F1 + 2 and TFPI after high-fat meals were negatively correlated with diversity. CONCLUSIONS Increased postprandial FVIIa is not accompanied by thrombin formation four hours after high-fat meals in patients with morbid obesity, possibly due to FVIIa-inhibition by AT.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Endothelial-derived molecules involved in thrombosis and hemostasis have been investigated mainly in arteries and in experimental animals. The actual presence and integral function of these molecules in the human deep venous system have received less attention. Our aim was to evaluate the expression of certain prothrombotic and antithrombotic genes in the normal human deep veins of the lower extremities. METHODS Macroscopically intact and competent valve-containing segments of human deep veins were prospectively collected from patients who had undergone above-knee amputation. Vein samples were separated into four zones: zone 1, postvalve (downstream, proximal) vein wall; zone 2, the valve cusp; zone 3, prevalve (upstream, distal) vein wall; and zone 4, vein wall within the valve cusp (cusp removed). Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction for principal genes involved in coagulation, fibrinolysis, and inflammation was performed to quantify messenger RNA. Selected protein gene products were measured by the western blot assay. One additional valve-containing segment underwent mass spectrometry analysis to investigate global differences in the proteome between the study zones. RESULTS Seventeen valve-containing vein segments were analyzed. Significant upregulation of antithrombotic (protein C receptor [PROCR], thrombomodulin [THBD], tissue factor pathway inhibitor [TFPI]), prothrombotic (con Willebrand factor [VWF]), and proinflammatory (selectin P [SELP], intercellular adhesion molecule 1 [ICAM1]) genes was found in the valve cusp compared with the vein wall (P < .05). PROCR and THBD demonstrated the highest level of upregulation in the valve cusp. PROCR, serpin peptidase inhibitor, clade E, member 1 (SERPINE1), and SELP were upregulated in the valve cusp at the protein level (P < .05). Messenger RNA composition in the vein wall within the valve cusp was similar to the prevalve and postvalve vein wall for all genes, except for two times overexpressed ICAM1 (P < .05). Substantial differences within the proteome between the study zones were observed with mass spectrometry. CONCLUSIONS The biological properties of the valve cusp, vein wall within the valve cusp, and vein wall beyond the valve cusp are different. The endothelium of the valve cusps of a normal competent deep venous valve may be naturally less thrombogenic compared with the vein wall. The endothelium of the valve cusp may have a higher potential to interact with white blood cells compared with the vein wall. Mass spectrometry demonstrates substantial differences in the proteome between the vein wall and the valve cusps that were not anticipated before. (J Vasc Surg Venous Lymphat Disord 2021;9:770-80.) CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a major cause of mortality, morbidity, and impaired quality of life. Multiple risk factors have been identified, although their relative weight and pathophysiologic interactions remain obscure. Many patients with multiple risk factors for DVT never develop this condition. Conversely, in numerous cases DVT cannot be attributed to any known clinical risk factor. The molecular mechanisms that initiate DVT are unclear. An improved understanding of the normal biology of human deep veins will serve as an important foundation for new hypotheses of the pathogenesis of DVT. The latter may suggest new projects on novel therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Biological rhythms exist in organisms at all levels of complexity, in most organs and at myriad time scales. Our own biological rhythms are driven by energy emitted by the sun, interacting via our retinas with brain stem centres, which then send out complex messages designed to synchronize the behaviour of peripheral non-light sensing organs, to ensure optimal physiological responsiveness and performance of the organism based on the time of day. Peripheral organs themselves have autonomous rhythmic behaviours that can act independently from central nervous system control but is entrainable. Dysregulation of biological rhythms either through environment or disease has far-reaching consequences on health that we are only now beginning to appreciate. In this review, we focus on cardiovascular rhythms in health, with ageing and under disease conditions.

Abstract
Background: Anticoagulant activity and blood pressure increase in the morning. The aim of this study was to evaluate changes of anticoagulant activity, blood pressure and target organ damage in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (AF) given combination treatment with Xa inhibitor and antihypertensive agent.Methods: We enrolled 72 patients with nonvalvular AF. Rivaroxaban (10-15 mg) was continuously administered once daily over 8 weeks (study period I). For subjects (n = 50) who exhibited uncontrolled morning hypertension (home systolic blood pressure [SBP]≥125 mmHg) at the end of study period I (at 8 weeks), nifedipine CR (20-40 mg) was added at bedtime, and rivaroxaban administration was continued an additional 8 weeks. We assessed prothrombin fragment 1 + 2 (optimal range: 69-229 pmol/L) and D-dimer (negative D-dimer measurement: <1.0 μg/mL).Results: The percentage of patients with optimal-range prothrombin fragment 1 + 2 was significantly increased at 4 weeks compared to baseline (70.8% vs. 86.1%, p = .033). In period II, office and home morning SBP were reduced at 12 compared to 8 weeks (office SBP: 135.2 ± 15.7 vs. 125.6 ± 18.4mmHg, p < .001; home morning SBP: 133.5 ± 10.5 vs. 119.9 ± 12.1mmHg, p<.001).The percentage of patients with negative D-dimer was increased at 8 weeks compared to baseline (92% vs. 100%, p = .044), and remained at 100% at 16 weeks.Conclusions: Xa inhibitor therapy improved anticoagulant activity, and additional antihypertensive therapy maintained the anticoagulant activity in patients with nonvalvular AF.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Postoperative hemorrhage is a serious complication of tonsillectomy, with secondary bleeding rates affecting up to 0.8% to 3% of patients. Although these bleeds are anecdotally perceived as occurring more frequently at night, the occurrence of hemorrhage relative to the time of day has not been investigated. We measured the frequency of post-tonsillectomy hemorrhage onset relative to the time of day. METHODS We reviewed electronic medical records of all patients who experienced postprocedural hemorrhage (International Classification of Disease, Ninth Edition [ICD-9] 998.11, ICD-10 J95.830 at two hospitals within a tertiary academic health system in a 10-year period). Patient demographics, time of bleed onset, emergency room [ED] arrival time, and management (operating room vs. observation) were abstracted. Patients without a recorded bleeding time were excluded. Time of bleed onset was categorized as morning (6:01 am-12 pm), afternoon (12:01 pm-6 pm), evening (6:01 pm-12 am), or overnight (12:01 am-6 am). Chi-square goodness of fit test was used to assess the distribution of hemorrhage timing (P ≤ 0.05). RESULTS A total of 7,396 patients underwent tonsillectomy May 2008 through May 2018, among whom 121 (2%) post-tonsillectomy hemorrhage patients were identified. Among the 104 patients with ED arrival times, 29 (28%) arrived in the morning; 15 (14%) arrived in the afternoon; 40 (38%) arrived in the evening; and 20 (19%) arrived overnight (P = 0.003). Sixty patients (mean age 17.1 years, standard deviation 16.6) had a recorded timing of bleed onset. Bleed onset occurred most commonly overnight (24, 40%), followed by evening (21, 35%), afternoon (11, 18%), and morning (4, 7%) (P = 0.0007). CONCLUSION In this cohort, post-tonsillectomy hemorrhage occurred most frequently between midnight and 6 am. Our findings confirm anecdotal experience and provide data in setting caregiver expectations. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 4 Laryngoscope, 130:1823-1827, 2020.

Abstract
The physiological role and relevance of the mechanisms sustaining circadian rhythms have been acknowledged. Abnormalities of the circadian and/or sleep-wakefulness cycles can result in major metabolic disorders or behavioral/professional inadequacies and stand as independent risk factors for metabolic, psychiatric, and cerebrovascular disorders and early markers of disease. Neuroimaging and clinical evidence have documented functional interactions between autonomic (ANS) and CNS structures that are described by a concept model (Central Autonomic Network) based on the brain-heart two-way interplay. The circadian rhythms of autonomic function, ANS-mediated processes, and ANS/CNS interaction appear to be sources of variability adding to a variety of environmental factors, and may become crucial when considering the ANS major role in internal environment constancy and adaptation that are fundamental to homeostasis. The CNS/ANS interaction has not yet obtained full attention and systematic investigation remains overdue.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) is one of the basic drugs used in the secondary prevention of coronary artery disease (CAD), and in most cases it is taken in the morning in one daily dose. It is suggested that the morning peak of platelet aggregation is responsible for the occurrence of myocardial infarctions and strokes. Hence, the aim of the study was to observe the effect of ASA (morning vs. evening) dosing on the anti-aggregative effect of platelets in patients with CAD and arterial hypertension (AH). METHODS The study involved 175 patients with CAD and AH. Patients were randomly assigned to one of two study groups, taking ASA in the morning or in the evening. The patients had two visits, one baseline and another after 3 months from changing the time of ASA dosage. The platelet aggregation was determined using the VerifyNow analyzer. RESULTS In the ASA evening group, a significant reduction in platelet aggregation was obtained. In the ASA morning group, a significant difference in response to ASA was observed, depending on sex. In men, the reactivity of platelets decreased, but in women it increased. CONCLUSIONS In the group of patients with CAD and AH, bedtime ASA dosing is associated with a significant reduction in platelet aggregation. The response to ASA may differ between sexes. The benefit gained by changing the drug administration from the morning to the evening is greater in women.

Abstract
This publication is a summary of the multidirectional effects of aspirin and its role in modern medicine. The history of aspirin, or acetylsalicylic acid (ASA), and its use dates back to ancient times, although the substance in its pure form has been produced and sold since 1899. Initially it was used for its antipyretic, analgesic, and anti-inflammatory effects. Over the years many other benefits associated with the administration of ASA have been revealed. The mechanism of aspirin’s action was discovered thanks to the British pharmacologist and Nobel Prize winner Sir John Vane. Understanding the effects of acetylsalicylic acid, associated with the inhibition of cyclooxygenase and proinflammatory thromboxane A2 and with increased concentration of vasoprotective, antithrombotic prostacyclin, gave rise to the era of using small “cardiac” doses of ASA in cardiovascular diseases. In addition to the well-researched antiplatelet effect, other properties of ASA have been discovered, such as the non-COX-1 dependent improvement of endothelial function or the hypotensive effect after evening administration. According to the currently available knowledge, it is possible to speak of a pleiotropic effect of ASA and its use in the prevention of cardiovascular diseases, taking into account its anti-aggregation effect, circadian rhythms, and the principles of chronotherapy.

Abstract
Over the course of a 24-h day, demand on the heart rises and falls with the sleep/wake cycles of the organism. Cardiac metabolism oscillates appropriately, with the relative contributions of major energy sources changing in a circadian fashion. The cardiac peripheral clock is hypothesized to drive many of these changes, yet the precise mechanisms linking the cardiac clock to metabolism remain a source of intense investigation. Here we summarize the current understanding of circadian alterations in cardiac metabolism and physiology, with an emphasis on novel findings from unbiased transcriptomic studies. Additionally, we describe progress in elucidating the links between the cardiac peripheral clock outputs and cardiac metabolism, as well as their implications for cardiac physiology.

Abstract
Exercise has been demonstrated to have considerable effects upon haemostasis, with activation dependent upon the duration and intensity of the exercise bout. In addition, markers of coagulation and fibrinolysis have been shown to possess circadian rhythms, peaking within the morning (0600-1200 h). Therefore, the time of day in which exercise is performed may influence the activation of the coagulation and fibrinolytic systems. This study aimed to examine coagulation and fibrinolytic responses to short-duration high-intensity exercise when completed at different times of the day. Fifteen male cyclists (VO2max: 60.3 ± 8.1 ml kg-1 min-1) completed a 4-km cycling time trial (TT) on five separate occasions at 0830, 1130, 1430, 1730 and 2030. Venous blood samples were obtained pre- and immediately post-exercise, and analysed for tissue factor (TF), tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI), thrombin-anti-thrombin complexes (TAT) and D-Dimer. Exercise significantly increased plasma concentrations of TF (p < .0005), TFPI (p < .0006), TAT complexes (p < .0012) and D-Dimer (p < .0003). There was a time-of-day effect in pre-exercise TF (p = .004) and TFPI (p = .031), with 0830 greater than 1730 (p .001), while 1730 was less than 2030 h (p = .008), respectively. There was no significant effect of time of day for TAT (p = .364) and D-Dimer (p = .228). Power output, TT time and heart rate were not significantly different between TTs (p > .05); however, percentage VO2max was greater at 1730 when compared to 2030 (p = .04). Due to a time-of-day effect present within TF, peaking at 0830, caution should be applied when prescribing short-duration high-intensity exercise bout within the morning in populations predisposed to hypercoagulability.

Abstract
The anticoagulant effect of rivaroxaban, a direct inhibitor of activated factor X (FX), might be influenced by its dosing time because the activity of the coagulofibrinolytic system exhibits daily rhythmicity. In rats, FX activity follows a 24-h rhythm with a peak in the middle of the light phase and a trough at the beginning of the dark phase. Consistent with these findings, a single dose of rivaroxaban had a stronger inhibitory effect on FX activity after dosing at the beginning of the light phase than after dosing at the beginning of the dark phase. A similar chronopharmacological effect was seen in a quantitative model of venous stasis thrombosis. In comparison, the dosing time had minimal influence on the pharmacokinetics of rivaroxaban. These data indicate that the anticoagulant effect of rivaroxaban is influenced by the dosing time. Further studies should confirm this finding in a clinical setting.

Abstract
UNLABELLED ESSENTIALS: It is unknown whether single rivaroxaban doses should best be administered in the morning or evening. Circadian rhythm of coagulation/fibrinolysis was measured after morning or evening intake of rivaroxaban. Evening intake of rivaroxaban leads to prolonged exposure to rivaroxaban concentrations. Evening intake of rivaroxaban better matches the morning hypofibrinolysis. BACKGROUND A circadian variation of the endogenous coagulation system exists with hypercoagulability and hypofibrinolysis and a corresponding peak of cardiovascular thromboembolic events in the morning. So far, no information is given as to whether single daily doses of the new oral anticoagulant drug rivaroxaban should best be administered in the morning or the evening. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sixteen healthy male or female volunteers with a mean age of 26 ± 7 years were included in this randomized, controlled, analyst-blinded cross-over clinical trial. All subjects were given three morning and three evening single doses of 10 mg rivaroxaban. Circadian rhythms of prothrombin fragment 1 + 2, plasminogen activator inhibitor, and plasmin-antiplasmin complex were measured before any medication intake, as well as after morning or evening medication intake. Rivaroxaban concentrations were determined by an anti-activated factor X assay and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. MAIN RESULTS Concentrations of rivaroxaban were higher 12 h after evening intake of rivaroxaban than 12 h after morning intake (53.3 ng mL(-1) [95% confidence interval 46.0-67.8] vs. 23.3 ng mL(-1) [19.4-29.1, respectively]). Rivaroxaban intake in the evening reduced morning F1+2 concentrations better at 8:00 AM than did administration on awakening (85 ± 25 nmol L(-1) vs. 106 ± 34 nmol L(-1) , CI: 9.4-32.1). In addition, this suppression effect was longer lasting after evening intake. CONCLUSIONS Evening intake of rivaroxaban leads to prolonged exposure to rivaroxaban concentrations and better matches the morning hypofibrinolysis. These results might help to further improve the efficacy and safety of rivaroxaban treatment.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION We examined potential prothrombotic and proinflammatory effects of angiotensin II in 16 otherwise healthy familial hypercholesterolaemia subjects and 16 matched controls. METHODS Markers of fibrinolysis, thrombin generation and inflammation were assessed in plasma before, during and 1h after a 3h intravenous infusion of angiotensin II. In addition, placebo experiments with saline infusion were carried out. RESULTS Baseline plasminogen activator inhibitor type-1 activity and plasmin-antiplasmin-complex concentrations were similar in FH and controls, as were interleukin-6, leukocyte counts and C-reactive protein. Fibrinogen levels were higher in FH, and we observed a greater thrombin generating potential in FH (calibrated automated thrombogram), but no signs of elevated thrombin generation in vivo (prothrombin fragment 1+2). During angiotensin infusion plasminogen activator inhibitor type-1 activity decreased and plasmin-antiplasmin-complex concentrations increased similarly in FH and controls. Total and maximal amount of thrombin generated was unchanged, as were prothrombin-fragment-1+2 levels. Interleukin-6 and leukocyte counts increased similarly in both groups during angiotensin infusion, while fibrinogen tended to increase in FH and increased in controls. During saline infusion plasminogen activator inhibitor type-1 activity and prothrombin fragment 1+2 concentrations fell, whereas other markers were unchanged. CONCLUSIONS FH exhibits an increased thrombin generation potential, an intact fibrinolysis, and has no convincing signs of inflammation. Angiotensin has proinflammatory effects, and might have minor profibrinolytic and procoagulatory effects.

Circadian rhythms of hemostatic factors in tetraplegia: a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled cross-over study of melatonin. Spinal Cord 2015; 53:285-90. [PMID: 25644388 PMCID: PMC5399146 DOI: 10.1038/sc.2014.243] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/12/2014] [Revised: 12/03/2014] [Accepted: 12/17/2014] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Study design: This is a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled cross-over study of melatonin in complete tetraplegia. Objectives: Tetraplegic patients have an increased risk of venous thrombosis despite prophylaxis, blunted variations in melatonin and altered circadian variation of several hemostatic markers. To examine whether melatonin could modify the regulation of hemostasis, we measured plasma melatonin and several markers of hemostasis in tetraplegic subjects with or without melatonin supplement. Setting: The study was conducted in the Section for Spinal Cord Injury, Sunnaas Hospital, Nesoddtangen, Norway. Methods: Six subjects with long-standing complete tetraplegia were included in this cross-over study with 2 mg of melatonin or placebo given 4 days before sampling. We also included six able-bodied men without any intervention. Plasma samples were then collected frequently during a 24-h awake/sleep cycle. The plasma concentrations of melatonin and the various markers were analyzed using linear mixed models. Results: The 24-h profiles of prothrombin fragment 1+2 and von Willebrand factor, but not D-dimer, activated FVII, tissue factor pathway inhibitor and plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1, differed (P<0.05) between tetraplegic patients and able-bodied subjects. The absolute plasma concentration of activated FVII was higher (P<0.05) among the able-bodied compared with the tetraplegic groups. Supplementation of melatonin had no impact on these findings. Conclusions: We found differences in circadian variation of several hemostatic markers between able-bodied and tetraplegics. These differences were apparently unrelated to fluctuations in the melatonin concentrations, suggesting little or no role of melatonin in the regulation of hemostasis in tetraplegia. Sponsorship: Financial support was provided from the Throne Holst Foundation.

Abstract
Diurnal oscillations of gene expression controlled by the circadian clock underlie rhythmic physiology across most living organisms. Although such rhythms have been extensively studied at the level of transcription and mRNA accumulation, little is known about the accumulation patterns of proteins. Here, we quantified temporal profiles in the murine hepatic proteome under physiological light-dark conditions using stable isotope labeling by amino acids quantitative MS. Our analysis identified over 5,000 proteins, of which several hundred showed robust diurnal oscillations with peak phases enriched in the morning and during the night and related to core hepatic physiological functions. Combined mathematical modeling of temporal protein and mRNA profiles indicated that proteins accumulate with reduced amplitudes and significant delays, consistent with protein half-life data. Moreover, a group comprising about one-half of the rhythmic proteins showed no corresponding rhythmic mRNAs, indicating significant translational or posttranslational diurnal control. Such rhythms were highly enriched in secreted proteins accumulating tightly during the night. Also, these rhythms persisted in clock-deficient animals subjected to rhythmic feeding, suggesting that food-related entrainment signals influence rhythms in circulating plasma factors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronobiology is devoted to the study of biological rhythms. It is possible that a given medication may be therapeutic and safe when administered at some time, but subtherapeutic or poorly tolerated at another. METHODS We focused on some classes of drugs, widely used by the internists, performing a PubMed search with the single drugs associated with the MeSH terms "Chronotherapy", "Circadian rhythm", and "Chronobiology, phenomena". Among the studies found, we considered only those provided with discrete numerosity or clearly stated methodological characteristics. RESULTS The results of available studies were given, along with a series of short take-home messages at the end of each mini-chapter devoted to: antihypertensives, statins, anticoagulants, analgesics, drugs for acid-related disorders, and anti-asthmatic drugs. In particular, evidence of morning vs. evening administration, when applicable, was given for each medication. CONCLUSIONS Adequate evidence seems to support that at least ACE-inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers, simvastatin, corticosteroids (slow-release formulation) for arthritic patients, and ranitidine should preferably be administered in the evening. Morning dosing could be better for proton pump inhibitors, whereas time of administration is not crucial for asthma inhalation drugs. Studies are available for other drugs, but not so strong enough to draw definite conclusions. For now, we need prospective intervention trials specifically designed to investigate the long-term effects of a temporal approach to medical therapy. However, since switching to morning-evening administration or vice versa is simple and inexpensive, in some cases it could be considered, remembering that, in any case, adherence remains the crucial point.

Abstract
Hypofibrinolysis is a risk factor for venous and arterial thrombosis, and can be assessed by using a turbidimetric tPA-induced clot lysis time (CLT) assay. Biological variation in clot lysis time may affect the interpretation and usefulness of CLT as a risk factor for thrombosis. Sufficient information about assay variation and biological variation in CLT is not yet available. Thus, this study aimed to determine the analytical, within-subject and between-subject variation in CLT. We collected blood samples from 40 healthy individuals throughout a period of one year (average 11.8 visits) and determined the CLT of each plasma sample in duplicate. The mean (± SD) CLT was 83.8 (± 11.1) minutes. The coefficients of variation for total variation, analytical variation, within-subject variation and between-subject variation were 13.4%, 2.6%, 8.2% and 10.2%, respectively. One measurement can estimate the CLT that does not deviate more than 20% from its true value. The contribution of analytical variation to the within-subject variation was 5.0%, the index of individuality was 0.84 and the reference change value was 23.8%. The CLT was longer in the morning compared to the afternoon and was slightly longer in older individuals (> 40 years) compared to younger (≤40 years) individuals. There was no seasonal variation in CLT and no association with air pollution. CLT correlated weakly with fibrinogen, C-reactive protein, prothrombin time and thrombin generation. This study provides insight into the biological variation of CLT, which can be used in future studies testing CLT as a potential risk factor for thrombosis.

Abstract
Limited data are available on the role of innate fibrinolysis in acute coronary syndromes (ACS). In the present study we evaluated the dynamic alterations of fibrinolytic markers in patients presenting with ACS. Tissue-type-(tPA) and urokinase type-(uPA) plasminogen activators, plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1) antigen and activity and thrombin activatable fibrinolysis inhibitor (TAFI) were analysed in 50 patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), 47 non-STEMI patients (NSTEMI), 40 patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD) and 39 controls. The parameters were measured on day 1 and days 3, 7 and 30. Counts of monocyte subsets, monocyte-platelet aggregates and plasma inflammatory cytokines were assessed on admission. On day 1, TAFI was higher in NSTEMI vs. STEMI (p<0.001) while PAI-1 activity was higher in STEMI (p<0.001). In STEMI, uPA activity levels was low on day 1 but significantly increased on day 30 (p<0.001). TAFI levels were increased in NSTEMI on day 1 and gradually reduced by day 30 (p<0.05). In STEMI, TAFI levels peaked at day 7 (p<0.05) and dropped significantly by day 30 (p<0.05). CD14++CD16+ monocytes were independently associated with PAI-1 activity in ACS (p=0.03). Monocyte-platelet aggregates rather than platelet-free monocytes were an independent determinant of tPA, PAI-1 antigen and TAFI on a multivariate analysis (p<0.05). There are significant differences in fibrinolytic activity between patients with STEMI and NSTEMI. These changes could reflect the role of these factors in post-MI myocardial healing. Monocyte-platelet interactions are independently associated with the regulation of the fibrinolytic status in ACS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE : Circadian rhythms are intrinsic timekeeping mechanisms that allow for adaptation to cyclic environmental changes. Increasing evidence suggests that circadian rhythms may influence progression of a variety of diseases as well as effectiveness and toxicity of drugs commonly used in the intensive care unit. In this perspective, we provide a brief review of the molecular mechanisms of circadian rhythms and its relevance to critical care. DATA SOURCES, STUDY SELECTION, DATA EXTRACTION, AND DATA SYNTHESIS:: Articles related to circadian rhythms and organ systems in normal and disease conditions were searched through the PubMed library with the goal of providing a concise review. CONCLUSIONS : Critically ill patients may be highly vulnerable to disruption of circadian rhythms as a result of the severity of their underlying diseases as well as the intensive care unit environment where noise and frequent therapeutic/diagnostic interventions take place. Further basic and clinical research addressing the importance of circadian rhythms in the context of critical care is warranted to develop a better understanding of the complex pathophysiology of critically ill patients as well as to identify novel therapeutic approaches for these patients.

Abstract
Background Increasing the predictability and reducing the rate of side effects of oral anticoagulant treatment (OAT) requires further clarification of the cause of about 50% of the interindividual variability of OAT response that is currently unaccounted for. We explore numerically the hypothesis that the effect of the interindividual expression variability of coagulation proteins, which does not usually result in a variability of the coagulation times in untreated subjects, is unmasked by OAT. Results We developed a stochastic variant of the Hockin-Mann model of the tissue factor coagulation pathway, using literature data for the variability of coagulation protein levels in the blood of normal subjects. We simulated in vitro coagulation and estimated the Prothrombin Time and the INR across a model population. In a model of untreated subjects a "canalization effect" can be observed in that a coefficient of variation of up to 33% of each protein level results in a simulated INR of 1 with a clinically irrelevant dispersion of 0.12. When the mean and the standard deviation of vitamin-K dependent protein levels were reduced by 80%, corresponding to the usual Warfarin treatment intensity, the simulated INR was 2.98 ± 0.48, a clinically relevant dispersion, corresponding to a reduction of the canalization effect. Then we combined the Hockin-Mann stochastic model with our previously published model of population response to Warfarin, that takes into account the genetical and the phenotypical variability of Warfarin pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics. We used the combined model to evaluate the coagulation protein variability effect on the variability of the Warfarin dose required to reach an INR target of 2.5. The dose variance when removing the coagulation protein variability was 30% lower. The dose was mostly related to the pretreatment levels of factors VII, X, and the tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI). Conclusions It may be worth exploring in experimental studies whether the pretreatment levels of coagulation proteins, in particular VII, X and TFPI, are predictors of the individual warfarin dose, even though, maybe due to a canalization-type effect, their effect on the INR variance in untreated subjects appears low.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Air travel and exercise change hemostatic parameters. This study investigated the effect of air travel on exercise-induced coagulation and fibrinolysis in endurance athletes. DESIGN A prospective longitudinal study. SETTING The 114th Boston Marathon (April 19, 2010). PARTICIPANTS Forty-one adults were divided into travel (T: 23 participants, living >4-hour plane flight from Boston) and nontravel (C: 18 participants, living <2-hour car trip from Boston) groups. INDEPENDENT VARIABLES Age, anthropometrics, vital signs, training mileage, and finishing time were collected. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Subjects provided venous blood samples the day before (PRE), immediately after (FINISH), and the day following the marathon after returning home (POST). Blood was analyzed for thrombin-antithrombin complex (TAT), tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA), hematocrit (Hct), and the presence of Factor V Leiden R506Q mutation. RESULTS Thrombin-antithrombin complex increased more in T subjects in PRE to FINISH samples (5.0 ± 4.0 to 12.9 ± 15.6 μg/L) than in C subjects (4.0 ± 1.2 to 6.1 ± 1.2 μg/L; P = 0.02 for comparison). The t-PA increased in both the T (5.4 ± 2.3 to 25.1 ± 12.2 ng/mL) and C (5.6 ± 2.0 to 27.7 ± 11.3 ng/mL) groups in PRE to FINISH samples, and this response did not differ between groups (P = 0.23 for comparison). Both groups exhibited similar t-PA and TAT values at POST that were not different than PRE (all P > 0.35). Age was related to the FINISH TAT values in T (r = 0.19; P = 0.04) but not in C (r = 0.03; P = 0.53) subjects. CONCLUSIONS Results suggest that the combination of air travel and marathon running induces an acute hypercoaguable state; this hemostatic imbalance is exaggerated with increasing age.

Abstract
AIMS Stroke events occur most frequently in the morning hours. Impaired haemostatic activity and morning blood pressure (BP) surge, defined as the morning BP increase from sleep, have individually been associated with stroke risk in general or hypertensive populations. However, their combined impact on the risk of a stroke remains unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 514 hypertensive patients aged > 50 years (mean 72.3 years; 37% men) underwent 24 h BP monitoring, measurement of haemostatic risk factors [plasma fibrinogen, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), and prothrombin fragment 1+2(F1+2)], and brain MRI at baseline. The incidence of stroke was prospectively ascertained. During an average of 41 months (1751 person-years), there were 43 stroke events (ischaemic, 30; haemorrhagic, 5; undefined, 8). On multivariable analysis adjusted for confounding factors, the hazard ratio [HR (95% confidence interval (CI)] for stroke in the highest vs. lower quartiles of PAI-1 was 2.5 (1.3-4.6), that for F1+2 was 2.6 (1.4-5.0), and that for the morning BP surge was 1.2 (1.1-1.4; all P< 0.01). In particular, the ratio was substantially higher in cases with the highest quartile of both PAI-1 and F1+2 levels compared with those with the lower quartiles of both parameters (HR: 8.2; 95% CI: 3.7-18.2; P< 0.001). Among the patients with the highest quartile of the morning BP surge (n= 128), the multivariable HR (95% CI) for the highest vs. lower quartiles of PAI-1 was 3.4 (1.3-9.1) and that for F1+2 was 3.3 (1.3-8.7) (both P< 0.05). CONCLUSION High levels of plasma PAI-1 and F1+2, as well as an excessive morning BP surge, are independently and additively associated with an increased risk of stroke in older hypertensive patients.
