Background: Coronary thrombosis is a process with unpredictable clinical outcome. Changes of thrombus composition overtime influence tissue repair and stabilization. We investigated rates of cell deaths and cell proliferation at different time points after initiation of thrombosis. Methods: Thrombectomy aspirates of 55 myocardial infarction patients were selected and histomorphologically classified as fresh (25), lytic (25), partially fibrocellular (10), completely fibrocellular (10). Paraffin sections were immunostained with anti-(cleaved) caspase-3/Casp3 (apoptosis), Citrullinated histone/CitH 3 (etosis), C-reactive protein/CRP and Ki67 (proliferation) in combination with either Feulgen counterstaining (DNA) or cell markers for granulocytes, macrophages, SMCs, platelets and endothelium. Rates of apoptosis, etosis and proliferation were measured as a percentage of total number of immunopositive pixels versus total number of DNA positive pixels, while co-localization with cell markers was assessed by digital image analysis. Results: Positive staining of CitH3 was observed more frequently (93%) than Casp3 (70%), Ki67 (79%) or CRP (59%) (p |
