The results of verification experiments. (a) Relative expression of TLR2, TLR4, FCGR3B, CAMP, MMP9, GZMA, S100A12, miR-146a, and miR-146b were verified by RT-qPCR. , . (b) Validation of miR-146a at different time points (T4, IP, T24, T72, and T1W) in STEMI patients versus HCs ( for STEMI patients and 100 for HCs). Abbreviations: TLR2: Toll-like receptor 2; TLR4: Toll-like receptor 4; FCGR3B: Fc fragment of IgG receptor IIIb; CAMP: cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide; MMP9: matrix metallopeptidase 9; GZMA: granzyme A; miR-146a: microRNA-146a; miR-146b: microRNA-146b; MACEs: major adverse cardiovascular events; STEMI: ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction; HCs: healthy controls; T4h: 4 hours after the onset of chest pain; IP: immediate postoperative; T24h: 24 hours after the onset of chest pain; T72h: 72 hours after the onset of chest pain; T1W: 1 week after the onset of chest pain.
