[Antithrombin III changes following myocardial infarct].

G Oehler, M Büdinger, D Heinrich

    Klinische Wochenschrift
    |September 3, 1984

    Summary

    Antithrombin III (AT III) levels decrease after acute myocardial infarction (AMI), correlating with labile proteins, not acute phase reactants. This suggests AT III is a nutritive-dependent protein, potentially promoting a prethrombotic state post-AMI.

    Area of Science:

    • Biochemistry
    • Clinical Medicine
    • Cardiology

    Context:

    • Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a critical cardiovascular event.
    • Understanding protein changes post-AMI is crucial for patient management.
    • Nutritional status significantly impacts physiological responses to critical illness.

    Purpose:

    • To investigate the behavior of antithrombin III (AT III) in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI).
    • To differentiate AT III's response from acute phase reactants and labile proteins.
    • To assess the impact of nutritional support (oral vs. i.v. hyperalimentation) on AT III levels.

    Summary:

    • In 62 AMI patients, AT III activity and concentration were measured alongside labile proteins (prealbumin, retinol-binding protein) and acute phase proteins (haptoglobin, C-reactive protein, fibrinogen).
    • AT III levels decreased significantly post-AMI, mirroring the decrease in labile proteins, irrespective of nutritional support method.
    • Conversely, acute phase proteins significantly increased, and AT III changes correlated with labile proteins, not acute phase proteins.

    Impact:

    • The findings indicate that antithrombin III acts as a nutritive-dependent labile protein, not an acute phase reactant, in the post-AMI period.
    • The observed decrease in AT III may contribute to a prethrombotic state following acute myocardial infarction.
    • This study provides insights into the complex protein dynamics after AMI and highlights the role of nutritional support.
