Résumé
Although cardiac troponin and natriuretic peptide have been shown to decrease after balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA) with improved right ventricular afterload in chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH), biomarkers to evaluate the effects of BPA independently of heart failure status remain to be developed. In 39 consecutive CTEPH patients including 31 who underwent BPA, we measured plasma levels of cyclophilin A (CyPA), which we demonstrated is secreted from pulmonary vascular smooth muscle cells in response to mechanical stretch and hypoxia. CyPA levels were elevated in CTEPH patients (12.7, IQR: 7.6-16.0) compared with 8 thromboembolic controls with a history of venous thromboembolism (4.9, IQR: 2.4-11.2) or 18 healthy controls (4.1, IQR: 2.4-6.8) (both p< 0.05) and were linearly correlated with mean pulmonary arterial pressure (r=0.50, p = 0.0003) and pulmonary vascular resistance (r=0.32, p= 0.026). BPA reduced CyPA levels and tended to lower brain-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels (p< 0.01 and p = 0.07). When comparing the changes in CyPA before and after BPA in the two subgroups with higher (≥35pg/mL) and normal (<35pg/mL) BNP at baseline, CyPA decreased both in patients with higher BNP and those with normal BNP (both p< 0.05). In contrast, BNP decreased only in patients with higher BNP (p< 0.05). Also, CyPA decreased both in patients with lower (<25 kg/m CyPA could be a useful biomarker to evaluate the effects of BPA even in patients with normal BNP or high BMI.

BACKGROUND
Although cardiac troponin and natriuretic peptide have been shown to decrease after balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA) with improved right ventricular afterload in chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH), biomarkers to evaluate the effects of BPA independently of heart failure status remain to be developed.
METHODS
In 39 consecutive CTEPH patients including 31 who underwent BPA, we measured plasma levels of cyclophilin A (CyPA), which we demonstrated is secreted from pulmonary vascular smooth muscle cells in response to mechanical stretch and hypoxia.
RESULTS
CyPA levels were elevated in CTEPH patients (12.7, IQR: 7.6-16.0) compared with 8 thromboembolic controls with a history of venous thromboembolism (4.9, IQR: 2.4-11.2) or 18 healthy controls (4.1, IQR: 2.4-6.8) (both p< 0.05) and were linearly correlated with mean pulmonary arterial pressure (r=0.50, p = 0.0003) and pulmonary vascular resistance (r=0.32, p= 0.026). BPA reduced CyPA levels and tended to lower brain-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels (p< 0.01 and p = 0.07). When comparing the changes in CyPA before and after BPA in the two subgroups with higher (≥35pg/mL) and normal (<35pg/mL) BNP at baseline, CyPA decreased both in patients with higher BNP and those with normal BNP (both p< 0.05). In contrast, BNP decreased only in patients with higher BNP (p< 0.05). Also, CyPA decreased both in patients with lower (<25 kg/m
CONCLUSIONS
CyPA could be a useful biomarker to evaluate the effects of BPA even in patients with normal BNP or high BMI.
