Abstract
Objective
Atherosclerosis (AS) is a sustained chronic vascular inflammatory response caused by lipid metabolism disorders and immune response disorders and is the main cause of premature (men ≤ 55 years old, women ≤ 65 years old) myocardial infarction (PMI). Cytochrome P450 2C19 (CYP2C19) (related to vascular function and lipid metabolism) and peripheral immune cell levels and plays an important role in the course of AS. The association CYP2C19 polymorphisms, comprehensive immunoinflammatory indices with PMI susceptibility is unclear.
Methods
This study included 485 PMI patients, and 639 age-matched non-PMI individuals as controls, from January 2019 to March 2024. The relationship between CYP2C19 polymorphisms, peripheral immunoinflammatory indices (pan-immune inflammation value (PIV), systemic immune inflammation index (SII), and system inflammation response index (SIRI)) and PMI risk were analyzed.
Results
The inflammatory indices levels in PMI patients were higher than those in controls (all p<0.05). The frequencies of the CYP2C19 *1/*2 and *2/*2 genotypes were higher, while the frequency of the *1/*1 genotype was lower in the PMI patients than those in controls. The cut-off values of TC, TG, LDL-C, PIV, SII, and SIRI were 5.065, 1.305, 2.805, 410.485, 869.645, and 1.495 for distinguishing PMI, respectively. Logistic regression analysis showed that male (odds ratio (OR): 1.607, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.134–2.277, p=0.008), history of smoking (OR: 7.108, 95% CI: 4.351–11.614, p<0.001), diabetes mellitus (OR: 4.906, 95% CI: 3.333–7.223, p<0.001), CYP2C19 poor metabolizer (PM) (*2/*2, *2/*3, and *3/*3) (OR: 2.147, 95% CI: 1.279–3.603, p=0.004), and high TG (≥1.305 vs <1.305, OR: 2.598, 95% CI: 1.864–3.623, p<0.001) and SIRI level (≥1.495 vs <1.495, OR: 2.495, 95% CI: 1.432–4.349, p=0.001) were independent risk factors for PMI.
Conclusion
CYP2C19 PM phenotype, high SIRI level (≥1.495) and TG level (≥1.305), male, history of smoking, and diabetes mellitus were independently associated with PMI susceptibility.

Introduction
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a disease of the human cardiovascular system.1,2 CVD is the leading cause of death globally and a major contributor to the world’s disease burden.3 Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a heart disease caused by coronary arteriosclerosis causing coronary artery stenosis, spasm and even occlusion, resulting in ischemia and hypoxia.4,5 Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is the most serious type of CAD, which refers to a series of physiological and pathological changes occurring on the basis of coronary arteriosclerosis and stenosis, resulting in myocardial ischemia and hypoxia, which in turn induces myocardial necrosis.6
CVD generally occurs most frequently in the elderly, but with the increase in social pressure and the influence of bad living habits, the incidence of CVD in young individuals has gradually increased.7,8 In recent years, with the increasing incidence of AMI in young people, premature myocardial infarction (PMI) has received increasing attention.9 PMI refers to the occurrence of AMI when men ≤55 years old and women ≤65 years old.10–12 According to the results of the atherosclerosis risk in communities (ARIC) cohort study in the United States, the proportion of hospitalization for AMI in young patients has increased significantly from 1995 to 2014, and the 1-year all-cause mortality is close to 10%.13 PMI not only leads to a decrease in the young labor force but also brings no small burden to the social economy. Therefore, it is of great significance to study the risk factors of PMI for the prevention of PMI.
Atherosclerosis (AS) is the main pathological basis of coronary artery disease (CAD) and other arterial vascular diseases. It is characterized by the accumulation of lipids, the formation of diseased plaques, thickening of intima and narrowing of arterial spaces, which lead to ischemia or necrosis of tissues and organs supplied by arteries.14,15 AS is a sustained chronic vascular inflammatory response caused by multiple factors, mainly involving lipid metabolism disorders and immune response disorders.16 Innate and adaptive immunity involving neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, and macrophages plays an important role in the occurrence and progression of AS.17–20 Neutrophils can promote monocyte recruitment by activating macrophages, play a cytotoxic role, and accelerate the progression of AS. Lymphocytes regulate inflammation and have anti-AS effects.21 Platelets interact with vascular endothelial cells and white blood cells to participate in the process of AS.22 In recent years, some comprehensive inflammatory indices calculated from peripheral blood cells have attracted wide attention, such as pan-immune inflammation value (PIV), systemic immune inflammation index (SII), and system inflammation response index (SIRI). Several studies have suggested that PIV,23,24 SII,25,26 and SIRI27 were potential predictors of short- and long-term outcomes in patients with AMI. However, the relationship between these inflammatory indices and PMI has not been studied.
In addition, the pathophysiological processes of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases may also be affected by cytochrome P450 (CYP450) enzymes.28,29 Specifically speaking, the metabolites of arachidonic acid (AA) and endodermal hyperpolarized factor (EDHF) catalyzed by CYP450 are the most important causes of vascular endothelial relaxation.30,31 Moreover, reactive oxygen species (ROS) are produced in coronary endothelial cells during the reaction catalyzed by CYP450, which can inhibit the vascular relaxation mediated by nitric oxide (NO).32 CYP450 2C19 (CYP2C19) is one of the important members of the CYP450 family.33 The rs4244285 (681G>A, CYP2C19*2) and rs4986893 (636G>A, CYP2C19*3) are the most common single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of CYP2C19 gene. Based on the two SNPs, CYP2C19 can be divided into six genotypes (*1/*1, *1/*2, *1/*3, *2/*2, *2/*3, and *3/*3) and three phenotypes (extensive metabolizer (EM) (CYP2C19*1/*1), intermediate metabolizer (IM) (CYP2C19*1/*2, and *1/*3), and poor metabolizer (PM) (CYP2C19*2/*2, *2/*3, and *3/*3)).34 It has been found that poor CYP2C19 metabolizers were more likely to have recurrent myocardial infarction.35
At present, there is little research on the risk factors for PMI. The purpose of this study was to investigate the association CYP2C19 polymorphisms, PIV, SII, and SIRI indices with PMI susceptibility. This study may provide reference for improving the understanding of PMI, strengthening the control of controllable risk factors, and providing early prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases.
Materials and Methods
Participants
This study retrospectively analyzed 485 PMI patients who were admitted to Meizhou People’s Hospital from January 2019 to March 2024, and 639 age-matched non-AMI individuals as controls who underwent physical examination in Meizhou People’s Hospital during the same period. The diagnostic criteria for AMI: the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) published the fourth edition of the Global Universal Diagnostic Criteria for myocardial infarction in 2018.36 The diagnostic criteria for AMI were increased and/or decreased markers of acute myocardial injury, at least once above the 99th percentile of the upper limit of normal, and have at least one of the following clinical conditions: (1) symptoms of acute myocardial ischemia; (2) new ischemic electrocardiogram changes; (3) new pathological Q-wave; (4) imaging evidence of newly viable myocardial loss or abnormal ventricular wall segmental motion; and (5) coronary angiography or intracavitary imaging confirmed the presence of coronary thrombosis.
Inclusion criteria of patients: (1) patients diagnosed with AMI; (2) patients who performed CYP2C19 gene polymorphisms, serum lipid, and blood routine testing; (3) male patients aged ≤55 years old and female patients aged ≤65 years old; (4) the clinical information of the patients were complete. The inclusion criteria of the controls as follows: (1) non-AMI participants who had been performed CYP2C19 gene polymorphisms, serum lipid, and blood routine testing; (2) male individuals with ≤55 years old and female individuals with ≤65 years old; (3) with complete information. Exclusion criteria for patients are as follows: (1) congenital heart disease, cardiomyopathy, or congestive heart failure; (2) with severe organ dysfunction; (3) with serious diseases, such as malignant tumors, severe infections, and so on. This study was supported by the Ethics Committee of the Meizhou People’s Hospital.
Data Collection and CYP2C19 Genotyping
Clinical data collected include gender, body mass index (BMI), ABO blood types, history of smoking, history of alcohol consumption, hypertension, and diabetes mellitus. According to Chinese standards, BMI was divided into three grades: <18.5 kg/m2, 18.5–23.9 kg/m2, and ≥24.0 kg/m2.37,38 Hypertension was defined as a mean systolic blood pressure >140 mmHg and/or a mean diastolic blood pressure >90 mmHg.39 Diabetes mellitus was defined as blood glucose ≥11.1 mol/L at any time or fasting blood glucose ≥7.0 mol/L, or 2-hour postprandial plasma glucose level ≥11.1 mol/L.40
Serum lipid levels and blood routine test data were collected before treatment. The patient’s venous blood was collected, the serum lipid levels of the samples were evaluated by an Olympus AU5400 system (Olympus Corporation, Tokyo, Japan), and blood cell analysis was tested by Sysmex XE-2100 hematology analyzer (Sysmex Corporation, Japan) according to standard operating procedures (SOP). Genomic DNA was extracted from venous blood collected from EDTA anticoagulant collection vessels using a blood DNA isolation kit (Qiagen GmbH, Germany). CYP2C19 genotyping was performed as previously described.41,42
Statistical Analysis
The inflammation indices PIV, SII, and SIRI were calculated according to the following formula: (1) PIV = monocyte × neutrophil × platelet/lymphocyte; (2) SII = platelet × neutrophil/lymphocyte; (3) SIRI = monocyte × neutrophil/lymphocyte.
All statistical analyses were performed using SPSS statistical software (version 26.0, IBM Inc., USA). Continuous variables were compared using either Student’s t-test, the Mann–Whitney U-test or analysis of variance (ANOVA). Genotype composition ratios and allele frequencies between groups were analyzed using Chi-square test or Fisher’s exact test. Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium in the patients and controls was evaluated by Chi-square test. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to determine the optimal cutoff values of TC, TG, LDL-C, PIV, SII, and SIRI to distinguish PMI. Logistic regression analysis was applied to examine the association CYP2C19 phenotypes, PIV, SII, and SIRI with PMI. p<0.05 was considered to represent statistical significance.

There were significant differences in the distributions of gender and BMI between PMI patients group and controls (all p<0.05). The proportion of history of smoking (34.8% vs 7.0%, p<0.001) and diabetes mellitus (35.9% vs 11.6%, p<0.001) in PMI patients was higher than those in controls, respectively. The serum lipid levels and inflammatory indices levels in PMI patients were significantly higher than those in controls (all p<0.05).

Discussion
AS is a multifactor-induced chronic inflammatory disease involving a complex set of circulating blood cells (such as blood plates and monocytes) and serum components (such as lipids and lipoproteins).43,44 AS is the common pathological basis of AMI, which is characterized by plaque formed by the coronary arteries loaded with lipids and a variety of immune cells.45 Neutrophils are involved in different stages of AS, including AS formation, rupture of unstable plaques, and plaque erosion.18 The granular protein and active substances released by granulocytes induce the recruitment of monocytes to AS lesions, stimulate the activation of macrophages, and promote the formation of foam cells.18,19 T helper 17 (Th17) cells induce the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, and secreted interleukin-17 (IL-17) can up-regulate the expression of E-selectin and intercellular adhesion molecules, thus promoting the generation of AS plaques.46 IgM produced by B1 lymphocytes can block the production of inflammatory cytokines and the formation of foam cells induced by oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) and has anti-AS effect.20 Monocyte-macrophages can absorb ox-LDL and release pro-inflammatory and pro-oxidative cytokines to further attract T lymphocytes and monocytes to the plaque site.47 Platelets regulate the inflammatory response of vascular endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells and thus participate in the process of AS.22 The predictive value of inflammatory indices based on cell counts of neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, and platelets in cardiovascular diseases has been widely concerned.
Several studies have suggested that PIV,23,24 SII,25,26,48–51 and SIRI,27,48,51 comprehensive indicators based on the above immune cell levels, were potential predictors of short- and long-term outcomes in patients with AMI. In addition, PIV can be used as a marker of the severity of CAD.52 Several researches had found that PIV,53 SII,54–58 and SIRI53 can be used to predict the risk of major cardiovascular events (MACE) after coronary intervention in patients with CAD. However, the relationship between these inflammatory indices and PMI has not been studied. A large, prospective, population-based cohort study showed that elevated SIRI was associated with an increased incidence of myocardial infarction in subjects aged <60 years old.59 The results of this study suggest that high SIRI levels (≥1.495) may be an independent risk factor for PMI.
Moreover, PMI is also associated with traditional cardiovascular risk factors such as smoking, diabetes mellitus, and lipid disorders.60 Most studies have largely identified smoking as a risk factor for early onset of AMI.61–63 Nicotine and other chemicals in cigarette tar promote AS through various mechanisms, such as mediating the damage to endothelial cell nucleus and mitochondrial DNA, increasing the expression of inflammatory factors, and promoting thrombosis.64 In addition, elevation in TG level was associated with high risk of PMI.65 AMI in young patients was associated with dyslipidemia.62 Triglyceride-glucose index can be used for the prediction of premature CAD66 and MACE in patients with premature CAD.67 Some studies suggested that LDL-C abnormality is the main cause of dyslipidemia that causes early onset cardiovascular disease.68,69 However, this study did not find a significant association between LDL-C levels and PMI risk.
In this study, CYP2C19 PM phenotype was an independent risk factor for PMI. To our knowledge, little is known about the relationship between CYP2C19 polymorphism and PMI susceptibility. Xie et al found that CYP2C19 *2/*2 genotype was an independent risk factor for multi-site AS.41 Several studies found that CYP2C19 polymorphism was a risk factor for CAD.70–73 In addition, other studies have suggested that CYP2C19 polymorphism was associated with the prognosis of CAD patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).74,75 In terms of mechanism, CYP450 may be involved in the development of atherosclerosis in several ways, such as EDHF produced from AA catalyzed by CYP450 is an important factor in vascular endothelial relaxation,30,31 the catalytic product of CYP450 modulates NO mediated vasodilation,32 and CYP450 regulates lipid deposition in blood vessels.29 CYP2C19 is an important member of the CYP450 family, CYP2C19 poor metabolizer with only weak enzyme activity, and its metabolites are not enough to maintain the balance of the above processes, so poor metabolizers are more prone to AS. Therefore, routine testing of CYP2C19 polymorphism is of great value for early detection of PMI high-risk groups.
To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first to report on CYP2C19 gene polymorphisms, PIV, SII, and SIRI levels and PMI susceptibility. Importantly, individuals with a CYP2C19 PM phenotype and high SIRI levels need to be alert to the risk of developing PMI. To sum up, SIRI and CYP2C19 gene testing have the advantages of strong universality, convenient operation, and low cost-efficiency. We believe that SIRI and CYP2C19 polymorphism can provide reference for the identification and management of PMI patients. This study was a single-center retrospective study with a small sample size, which may lead to selection bias. Therefore, multicenter, prospective studies are needed to further verify the predictive value of SIRI and CYP2C19 gene polymorphisms for PMI.
Conclusion
In summary, CYP2C19 PM phenotype, high SIRI level (≥1.495) and TG level (≥1.305), male, history of smoking, and diabetes mellitus were independently associated with PMI susceptibility. It means that male smokers who have diabetes mellitus, carried CYP2C19 PM phenotype, and have high TG and SIRI levels need to be aware of the risk of developing PMI. It can provide reference for the identification and management of PMI patients.
