  • Publication number: 20220275105
    Abstract: A method for providing cardioprotection in a subject who experienced a myocardial infarction, including administering a therapeutically effective amount of a Granzyme B inhibitor. Following acute MI in mice, CD8+ T lymphocytes are quickly recruited and activated in ischemic heart tissue, and release Granzyme B, leading to cardiomyocyte apoptosis and deterioration of myocardial function. Antibody-mediated depletion of CD8+ T lymphocytes decreases Granzyme B content and apoptotic within the myocardium and inflammatory response. mAb mediated-CD8 depletion limits myocardial injury and improves heart function. These effects are recapitulated in mice with CD8+ T cell selective Granzyme B deficiency in mice. Granzyme B is produced by other cell types (e.g., NK cells). Global Granzyme B deletion (GzmB-/- mice) decreases apoptotic within the myocardium, reduces local pro-inflammatory signature and ultimately limits infarct size after MI.

  • Patent number: 10948498
    Abstract: A cardiovascular event or disease is prevented or treated in a subject by measuring the expression level of soluble Triggering Receptors Expressed on Myeloid cells-1 (sTREM-1) level in a sample from the subject and comparing it to a reference level. Based on this comparison, subjects that are at risk of having or developing a cardiovascular event or disease are identified, and administered a suitable therapy.

  • Patent number: 10556953
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for treating MI or AMI in a subject in need thereof comprising a step of administering to said subject a therapeutically effective amount of an agent capable of depleting CD8 T cells. More particularly, this present invention relates to a method for treating acute myocardial infarction by reducing the size of necrosis and limiting 10 the post ischemic left ventricular remodeling.
