BACKGROUND: Interaction of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) with their receptor (RAGE) increases expression of inflammatory mediators (tumor necrosis factor alpha [TNF-α] and soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 [sVCAM-1]) and induces oxygen radicals that are implicated in atherosclerosis. Balloon-injury-induced atherosclerosis is associated with increased expression of AGEs and RAGE. The soluble receptor for AGE (sRAGE), which acts as a decoy for RAGE ligands (AGEs), prevents atherosclerosis in this model. HYPOTHESIS: We evaluated: 1) whether post-percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) restenosis is associated with low pre-PCI serum sRAGE, high serum AGEs, TNF-α, and sVCAM-1, and high AGE/sRAGE ratio; 2) whether pre-PCI and post-PCI levels of these markers are similar in patients with or without restenosis; and 3) whether sRAGE and AGE/sRAGE ratio have predictive value for post-PCI restenosis. METHODS: Angiography was performed in 46 patients with non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction for assessment of restenosis. Serum sRAGE, AGEs, TNF-α, and sVCAM-1 were measured in these patients and 20 control subjects. RESULTS: : Nineteen of the 46 patients developed post-PCI restenosis, which was associated with lower sRAGE and higher TNF-α and sVCAM-1 levels, and higher AGE/sRAGE ratio compared with patients without restenosis. Pre-PCI and post-PCI levels of these biomarkers were similar in both groups, except in patients with restenosis, in whom the post-PCI level of sRAGE was lower and TNF-α was higher than the pre-PCI levels. The sensitivity and negative predictive value of sRAGE were 100%, and were higher than those of AGE/sRAGE ratio in identifying post-PCI restenosis. CONCLUSIONS: Both low serum sRAGE levels and high AGE/sRAGE ratio have predictive value for post-PCI restenosis.
