About this study
Official title: Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction of Four Genes in Coronary Artery Disease, Myocardial Infarction and Ischemic Cardiomyopathy
Background:Ischemic heart disease is one of the heaviest health-related burdens worldwide.We aimed to identify the common hub mRNA and pathways that are involved in pathological progression of ischemic cardiomyopathy. Methods: To explore potential differentially expressed genes (DEGs) of all ischemic heart disease stages, we used chipster and GEO2R tools to analyze of retrieved eight high throughput RNA datasets obtained from GEO database. Gene Ontology functional annotation and Pathways enrichment analyses were used to obtain the common functional enriched DEGs which were visualized in protein-protein interactions (PPI) network to explore the hub mRNA according to the interaction scores. Validation qRT-PCR was carried out for blood and cardiac biopsies compared with controls to validate the determined four hub mRNAs and subsequently reviewed inside comprehensive published meta-analysis database. The validated mRNAs were visualized in two interaction modules. Finally screening of approved drugs was applied.

Cardiac biopsy, blood samplingProcedure or surgery
In the studied thirteen peripheral blood subjects, five milliliters blood samples were taken from each patient in potassium EDTA tubes, immediately inserted in liquid nitrogen container and then stored in -80 refrigerators. All studied thirteen cardiac tissue subjects were underwent cardiac biopsy after PCI in order to take two specimens from the left ventricle using judkin right seven french catheters for femoral access and cardiac bioptome 2.3 mm wide. All cardiac specimens were collected in cryotubes, immediately inserted in liquid nitrogen container and then stored in -80 refrigerators.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Genetic pathway of pathological progression from stable coronary artery disease to myocardial infarction and finally to ischaemic cardiomyopathy
The expected results may explain novel genetic pathways of the clinical progression of asymptomatic structural cardiac disorder (Stable coronary artery disease) to typically symptomatic ischaemic cardiomyopathy. Gene expression profiling of seven genes in RNA of all cardiac specimens was measured using QPCR analysis.
Measured: 2 years

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Genetic pathway of pathological progression from stable coronary artery disease to myocardial infarction and finally to ischaemic cardiomyopathy (time frame: 2 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 26 Jan 2023.
