Abstract:
This study aimed to investigate the role of Sirt6 and inflammatory cytokines in blood samples of patients with ACS. This is a retrospective randomized controlled clinical trial, a total of 30 patients from our hospital are included and divided into following two groups: control group and experimental group, and experimental group consists of 15 patients with ACS and control group consists of 15 patients with non-acute coronary syndrome. Sirt6 protein is detected by western blotting and Sirt6 mRNA is detected by real-time PCR, then inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1β, IL-18, TnI, and CK-MB are measured by ELISA and cytokines NT-proBNP are monitored by immunofluorescence. Our outcomes show that Sirt6 protein and Sirt6 mRNA in experimental group are remarkably lower than those in control group, and IL-1β, IL-18, TnI, CK-MB, and NT-proBNP in the experimental group are remarkably higher than those in control group. We can conclude that Sirt6 can prevent or inhibit the development of ACS and IL-1β, IL-18, TnI, CK-MB, and NT-proBNP can accelerate the development of ACS.

Blood Studies for Cardiovascular System I: Cardiac Biomarkers
The essential diagnostic tools for detecting myocardial necrosis and monitoring individuals suspected of having acute coronary syndrome (ACS) include:
Troponins
Troponins, particularly cardiac troponins I and T, are the most precise and sensitive markers of myocardial injury. They are detectable within 4-6 hours of myocardial injury and remain...
