ABSTRACT
Cardiovascular diseases are the foremost contributor to global mortality, presenting a complex etiology and an expanding array of risk factors. Coronary artery disease characterized by atherosclerotic plaque build-up in the coronary arteries, imposes significant mortality and financial burdens, especially in low- and middle-income nations. The pathogenesis of coronary artery disease involves a multifaceted interplay of genetic, environmental, and epigenetic factors. Epigenetic regulation contributes to the dynamic control of gene expression without altering the underlying DNA sequence. The mounting evidence that highlights the pivotal role of epigenetic regulation in coronary artery disease development and progression, offering potential avenues for the development of novel diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets. Abnormal DNA methylation patterns are linked to the modulation of gene expression involved in crucial processes like lipid metabolism, inflammation, and vascular function in the context of coronary artery disease. Cell-free DNA has become invaluable in tumor biology as a liquid biopsy, while its applications in coronary artery disease are limited, but intriguing. Atherosclerotic plaque rupture causes myocardial infarction, by depriving heart muscles of oxygen, releasing cell-free DNA from dead cardiac cells, and providing a minimally invasive source to explore tissue-specific epigenetic alterations. We discussed the methodologies for studying the global methylome and hydroxy-methylome landscape, their advantages, and limitations. It explores methylome alterations in coronary artery disease, considering risk factors and their relevance in coronary artery disease genesis. The review also details the implications of MI-derived cell-free DNA for developing minimally invasive biomarkers and associated challenges.
