Background: Interleukin-6-receptor inhibition with tocilizumab improves myocardial salvage in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Reduced levels of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), which consist of nuclear material studded with proteins released upon neutrophil activation, might contribute to this effect. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of tocilizumab on NETs and investigate the association between NETs and myocardial injury in patients with STEMI. Methods: In the ASSAIL-MI study, 199 patients with STEMI were randomized to tocilizumab or placebo during percutaneous coronary intervention. In this substudy, we analyzed blood levels of the NET markers double-stranded deoxyribonucleic acid (dsDNA), myeloperoxidase-DNA, and citrullinated histone 3 (H3Cit) at admission and after 24 hours and 3 to 7 days. In a subgroup of patients, we assessed regulation of transcripts related to the formation of NETs. We also investigated associations between NET markers and the myocardial salvage index (MSI). Results: All NET markers were lower in the tocilizumab group than in the placebo group at 3 to 7 days (all P |
