GDF-15 is associated with thrombus burden in patients with deep venous thrombosis.

Abstract:

INTRODUCTION:Growth differentiation factor-15 (GDF-15) has been identified as a predictor in cardiovascular diseases and acute pulmonary embolism. However, the association of GDF-15 and deep venous thrombosis (DVT) remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate levels of GDF-15 in patients with DVT, and determine its association with the thrombus burden. MATERIALS AND METHODS:72 newly diagnosed DVT patients and 30 healthy volunteers were enrolled, and the levels of plasma GDF-15 were detected. To explore the relationship between GDF-15 and thrombus severity, we analyzed the thrombus burden and the association with pulmonary embolism of DVT patients. In vitro, the effect of GDF-15 on platelet aggregation and thrombin/antithrombin activity were investigated. RESULTS:We found that the mean levels of plasma GDF-15 in DVT patients were significantly higher than those in healthy controls (1448.78 ± 61.98 pg/ml VS 805.70 ± 112.95 pg/ml, P < 0.001). Furthermore, GDF-15 showed an increase with more venous segments with thrombus (P < 0.001), and the patients with higher levels of GDF-15 and more thrombus segments showed higher scores of Wells-PE and Geneva and increased incidence of pulmonary embolism (P < 0.05). In vitro, we confirmed that GDF-15 significantly reduced platelet aggregation induced by ADP and the effect was concentration-dependent (P < 0.001). However, GDF-15 showed no direct effect on thrombin and anti-thrombin activity. CONCLUSIONS:Increased GDF-15 level was associated with more thrombus severity of DVT patients and GDF-15 could inhibit platelet aggregation induced by ADP in vitro. These findings suggest that GDF-15 might not only be an indicator for thrombus severity but also be a potential treatment target in DVT.
