Biomarkers of myocardial injury
The present invention relates to the field of myocardial injury. More specifically, the present invention provides methods and compositions useful in the diagnosis, prognosis and/or assessment of myocardial injury. In a specific embodiment, a method comprises the steps of (a) diagnosing a subject as having myocardial injury based on the statistically significant over expression of one or more markers described herein compared to a baseline value, wherein the markers are measured in a biological sample obtained from the subject; and (b) treating the subject with one or more of an anti-thrombolysis agent, coronary bypass surgery or angioplasty.
1. A method of detecting biomarkers in a human subject, comprising:
assaying a biological sample obtained from the human subject, wherein the human subject has or is suspected of having a myocardial injury, and wherein the biological sample is selected from the group consisting of blood, plasma and serum; and
detecting the biomarkers in the biological sample, wherein the biomarkers are all four biomarkers Exostosin-like 2 (EXTL2), S100A12, S100A6, and Thioredoxin (THIO).
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising detecting at least one additional biomarker in the biological sample, wherein the at least one additional biomarker is selected from the group consisting of CNDP1, CSRP1, S100A1, S100A4, SH3, and TMPRSS4.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the biomarkers are detected by mass spectrometry, binding assay, immunoassay, antibody binding or immunohistochemistry.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the biomarkers comprise a post-translational modification.
5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising recommending a treatment for the human subject.
6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising administering a treatment to the human subject.
7. The method of claim 3 , wherein the immunoassay is enzyme-linked immunoassay (ELISA).
8. The method of claim 3 , wherein the mass spectrometry is multiple reaction monitoring (MRM).
9. The method of claim 2 , wherein the biomarkers are detected by mass spectrometry, binding assay, immunoassay, antibody binding or immunohistochemistry.
10. The method of claim 2 , wherein the biomarkers comprise a post-translational modification.
11. The method of claim 2 , further comprising recommending a treatment for the human subject.
12. The method of claim 2 , further comprising administering a treatment to the human subject.
13. The method of claim 9 , wherein the immunoassay is enzyme-linked immunoassay (ELISA).
14. The method of claim 9 , wherein the mass spectrometry is multiple reaction monitoring (MRM).
15. A method of detecting at least four biomarkers in a human subject, comprising:
assaying a biological sample obtained from the human subject,
wherein the human subject has or is suspected of having a myocardial injury, and
wherein the biological sample is selected from the group consisting of blood, plasma and serum; and
detecting the at least four biomarkers in the biological sample,
wherein the biomarkers are selected from the group consisting of Beta-Ala-His dipeptidase (CNDP1), Cysteine and glycine-rich protein 1 (CSRP1), Exostosin-like 2 (EXTL2), S100A1, S100A12, S100A4, S100A6, SH3 domain-binding glutamic acid rich-like protein (SH3), Thioredoxin (THIO), and Isoform 2 of Transmembrane protease serine 4 (TMPRSS4), and
further wherein the at least four biomarkers are Exostosin-like 2 (EXTL2), S100A12, S100A6, and Thioredoxin (THIO).
16. The method of claim 15 , wherein the biomarkers are detected by mass spectrometry, binding assay, immunoassay, antibody binding or immunohistochemistry.
17. The method of claim 15 , wherein the biomarkers comprise a post-translational modification.
18. The method of claim 15 , further comprising recommending a treatment for the human subject.
19. The method of claim 15 , further comprising administering a treatment to the human subject.
20. The method of claim 16 , wherein the immunoassay is enzyme-linked immunoassay (ELISA), and wherein the mass spectrometry is multiple reaction monitoring (MRM).
