Abstract
Moyamoya disease (MMD) is a chronic cerebrovascular disease with unknown etiology. The pathogenesis of vascular changes remains unclear. Ischemic and hemorrhagic adult MMD patients and healthy volunteers were enrolled to collect serum for data-independent acquisition (DIA)-based proteomic analysis and ELISA validation. DIA serum proteomic revealed that apolipoprotein C-I (APOC1), apolipoprotein D (APOD), and apolipoprotein A-IV (APOA4) were decreased. The reductases glutathione S-transferase omega-1 (GSTO1) and peptidyl-prolyl cis–trans isomerase A (PPIA) were upregulated, and ADAMTS-like protein 4 (ADAMTSL4) was downregulated in both ischemic and hemorrhagic MMD. Afamin (AFM) and transforming growth factor-beta-induced protein ig-h3 (TGFBI) increased in ischemic patients but decreased in hemorrhagic patients. Serum ELISA results confirmed that APOA4, APOC1, and APOD were decreased compared to controls. Then, we retrospectively analyzed biochemical indexes of 200 MMD patients. A total of 54 enrolled MMD patients showed decreased total cholesterol (TC) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-c). APOA4, APOC1, and APOD were vital factors in the HDL decrease in MMD patients. Lipoprotein dysfunction in MMD patients is involved in MMD. Intimal thickening by enhanced adhesion, middle layer vascular smooth muscle cell migration, and decreased lipid antioxidant function represented by HDL are potential pathogeneses of vascular changes in MMD.
