Abstract

Background: In the first three months after Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), a remarkable number of patients have an unfavorable outcome. An inflammatory response after TAVI is suspected to have negative effects. The exact mechanisms remain unclear. We examined the influence of monocyte subpopulations on the clinical outcome, along with the degree of monocyte activation and further parameters of inflammation and platelet activation. Methods: Flow-cytometlic quantification analyses of peripheral blood were done in 120 consecutive patients who underwent TAVI (one day before TAVI and on day 1 and 7 after TAVI). Monocyte-subsets were defined by their CD14 and CD16 expression, monocyte-platelet-aggregates (MPA) by CD14/CD41 co-ex pression. The extent of monocyte activation was determined by quantification of CD11b-expression (activation epitope). Additionally, pro-inflammatoiy cytokines such as interleukin (IL)-6, IL-8, C-reactive protein were measured with the cytometric bead array method or standard laboratory tests. Results: Elevated Mon2 (CD14(-+)CD16(+)) - monocytes (38 vs. 62 cells/mu l, p < 0.001) and a high expression of CD11b prior to TAVI (MIL 50.1 vs. 84.6, p < 0.05) were independently associated with death 3 months after TAVI. Mon2 showed the highest CD11b-expression and CD11b correlated with platelet activation and markers of systemic inflammation. Even CRP and IL-8 before TAVI were associated with death after TAVI. In contrast, a systemic inflammation response shortly after TAVI was not associated with early death. Conclusions: Elevated Mon2-monocytes and a high level of monocyte activation before TAVI are associated with early mortality after TAVI. Chronic inflammation in aging patients seems to be an important risk factor after TAVI. (C) 2020 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
