Abstract

Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is characterized by complex neuroendocrine activation. To investigate catestatin profiles, serial catestatin levels were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in the first week after AMI in 50 patients. Catestatin levels reduced at admission and negatively correlated with heart rates; it increased significantly on the third day but remained decreased at 1 week and positively with blood pressure. In a subgroup of 20 patients admitted within 4 h after onset, circulating catestatin correlated inversely with norepinephrine. Catestatin might be involved in the course of AMI and act as a tool in monitoring the progression of AMI.
