Background: Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) continues to be a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Galectin-3 and pentraxin-3 are two prognostic biomarkers that have been studied in heart failure (HF). However, there are limited data on these biomarkers in the ACS population. The objective of the study was to determine the variables that are most affected by high concentrations of pentraxin-3 and galectin-3, and the influence they have on outcomes of all-cause mortality in patients with ACS. Methods: We included a total of 160 patients ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI),n = 64; non STEMI/unstable angina (NSTEMI/UA), n = 38; and control subjects with chronic stable angina (CSA)/microvascular angina (MVA) n = 58. Plasma pentraxin-3 and galectin-3 levels were assessed from these patients at the time of hospital admission. Major adverse cardiovascular events including all-cause mortality, rehospitalizations and coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) were assessed at 6 months. Results: The median concentration of pentraxin-3 and galectin-3 were significantly higher in STEMI than in NSTEMI patients (p < 0.005) or controls (p < 0.005). Greater numbers of deaths (4 versus 0) were observed in STEMI patients with higher levels of these biomarkers. In addition, ACS patients with high levels of pentraxin-3 and galectin-3 had lower left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) (p < 0.005), and a moderate correlation was observed between LVEF and pentraxin-3 levels (r = -0.45, p < 0.005). Patients with higher galectin-3 levels were also observed to have a lower estimated glomerular fraction rate (eGFR), and a moderate correlation was observed between them (r = -0.34, p < 0.005). Conclusion: Pentraxin-3 and galectin-3 hold much promise in the ACS population as prognostic biomarkers.
