The purpose of this review is to provide an overview of essential clinical characteristics of several biomarkers that may have a potential clinical utility in diagnosing process and risk stratification in patients with acute coronary syndromes and heart failure. These biomarkers belong to those, which can detect myocardial ischemia and necrosis (troponin T and I, creatinkinase, ischemia-modified albumin, fatty acids binding protein, choline, glycogen phoshorylase isoenzyme BB, placental growth hormone, pregnancy-associated protein A, soluble CD40 ligand) and markers of myocardial function (natriuretic peptides).
Authors reveal essential summary of these parameters enriched with the possible use of these parameters in clinical practice and research.
Key words: biomarkers, myocardial necrosis, myocardial ischemia, troponincreatinkinase, ischemia-modified albumin, fatty acids binding protein, choline, glycogen phoshorylase isoenzyme BB, placental growth hormone, pregnancy-associated protein A, sCD40L, natriuretic peptides.
