The patients were divided in 4 groups: patients without coronary artery disease (control group), patients with stable angina pectoris (SAP group), patients with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS group), and patients with ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction group (STEMI group).

We measured baseline sEPCR levels in 1673 individuals with CAD (521 with acute coronary syndrome [ACS] and 1152 with stable angina pectoris [SAP]) from the AtheroGene cohort.

Gene expression profiles were determined in RNA pools from resting platelets of patients with stable angina (SA, n = 14) or NSTE-ACS (n = 15) using a glass microarray platform.

If compared to SA and C, UA after a 1YFU have higher levels of NF-kB, IL-6, ds-DNA, WBC, and oxLDL compared to C (p < 0.001), but only IL-6 is higher than SA (p < 0.001).
After exposure to LPS, the levels of TLR4, miR-155, TNF-α, IL-1, and IL-6 were increased and the level of IL-10 was decreased in the SAP and CSF groups compared with the HC group.
Lutein + zeaxanthin (isomers with lutein being dominant), β-cryptoxanthin, lycopene, α- and β-carotene and IL-6 were measured in plasma from 134 patients with stable angina (SA) and 59 patients with acute coronary syndrome.
We showed that circulating Th17 cells and IL-17 increased in patients with ACS compared to the patients with stable angina or health individuals; the plasma levels of IL-6 increased but TGF-β decreased in ACS patients, exhibiting a positive and negative correlation with that of IL-17, respectively.
