  • 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: 9688767
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for predicting the survival time of a patient suffering from myocardial infarction or the recurrence of a myocardial infarction. The method comprises the steps of i) determining the expression level of BAFF in a sample from the patient, ii) comparing the expression level with a predetermined reference value and iii) providing a good prognosis of the survival time or a low risk of the recurrence of a myocardial infarction when the expression level is lower than the predetermined reference value and a poor prognosis of the survival time or a high risk of the recurrence of a myocardial infarction when the expression level is higher than the predetermined reference value.

  • Publication number: 20160024218
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for predicting the survival time of a patient suffering of myocardial infarction or the recurrence of a myocardial infarction in a patient who has suffered from a myocardial infarction comprising the steps consisting of i) determining the expression level of BAFF in a sample from said patient, ii) comparing said expression level with a predetermined reference value and iii) providing a good prognosis of the survival time or a low risk of the recurrence of a myocardial infarction when the expression level is lower than the predetermined reference value and a poor prognosis of the survival time or a high risk of the recurrence of a myocardial infarction when the expression level is higher than the predetermined reference value.

  • Publication number: 20140004540
    Abstract: The present invention relates to in vitro methods and kits for predicting the risk of having a cardiovascular event in a subject. More particularly, the invention relates to an in vitro method for predicting the risk of a cardiovascular event in a subject, said method comprising the step of measuring the level of IL-17 in a blood sample obtained from said subject.

  • Publication number: 20120225427
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method of identifying a subject having or at risk of having or developing a cardiovascular disease and/or a cardiovascular event, comprising determining, in a sample obtained from said subject, the presence or absence of a variant allele of nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of the sPLA2 type IIA nucleic acid, wherein the SNP is selected from the group consisting of rs11573156 and rs2236771, wherein the presence of the minor allele (G) of SNP rs11573156 indicates an increased risk of having or being at risk of having or developing a cardiovascular disease and/or cardiovascular event, and the presence of the minor allele (C) of SNP rs2236771 indicates a decreased risk of having or being at risk of having or developing a cardiovascular disease and/or cardiovascular event.
