Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) family proteins including TNF-alpha and Fas (CD95)-ligand have been implicated in the development of acute myocardial infarction (AM1). We studied whether AM1 patients displayed up-regulation of another TNF family member. TNF-related-apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL), on peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs).We compared expression of TRAIL on PBMCs front 26 patients in the acute phase of AM1 with that on PBMCs from 16 healthy control subjects using flow cytometry and RT-PCR. In addition, expression of TRAIL protein on PBMCs from patients in the acute phase of AM1 was also compared with that from the same patients 7 days later. Furthermore, we compared the expression of TRAIL protein on CD4(+), CD8(+), CD14(+), and CD19(+) cells front patients in the acute phase of AM1 with that from control subjects using flow cytometry. Finally, expression of the TRAIL receptors (TRAILR)-1 and TRAILR-2 in human cardiomyocytes was examined immunohistochemically. Expression of TRAIL protein was significantly higher in the acute phase of AMI than in control subjects. Expression of TRAIL protein was significantly higher in the acute phase of AM1 than 7 days later. TRAIL mRNA expression in the acute phase of AM1 was higher than in control subjects. Expression of TRAIL protein oil CD4(+) and CD14(+) cells front AM1 patients was significantly higher than that from control subjects. Expression of TRAILR-1 and TRAILR-2 in human cardiomyocytes was confirmed immunohistochemically.TRAIL oil infiltrating CD4(+) and CD14(+) cells may be involved in (he induction of cardiomyocyte apoptosis after AM1.
