Micro-RNA as a predictor of cardiovascular diseases

Cardiovascular diseases, especially coronary heart disease (CHD), are the most common diseases worldwide. More than 50% of mortality occurs in this pathology. In recent decades, there is a tendency to «rejuvenate» cardiovascular diseases – primarily hypertension and СHD, which is of particular concern [6, 8]. It is generally recognized that atherosclerosis is the main etiological moment in the development of coronary heart disease. CHD includes a number of clinical diagnoses (angina pectoris, myocardial infarction, etc.) and is associated with atherosclerosis, a common degenerative disease in which lipids and the fibrous matrix are deposited in the arterial wall with the formation of an atheromatous plaque. Rupture of unstable plaques in the coronary arteries leads to the release of thrombogenic contents into the lumen of the vessel, leading to coronary artery thrombosis, occlusion and subsequent myocardial infarction, critical state with high mortality [5]. Despite the large number of known risk factors affecting the development of this disease, there is evidence, confirmed by large studies, about the presence of a genetic predisposition to this disease.
