Abstract Objective: This study aims to determine the mechanisms underlying restenosis and ischemia-reperfusion injury of the myocardium after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods: The present study examined serial changes (5 min, 30 min, 2 h, 6 h, and 24 h after PCI) in circulating P-selectin, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), magnesium (Mg), and creatine kinase-myocardial band fraction (CK-MB) levels, which may be associated with restenosis and myocardial injury in patients undergoing PCI. The occurrence rates of major adverse cardiovascular events were collected over a six-month follow-up. Results: PCI induced an early elevation of P-selectin, which correlated positively with the inflation pressure used in the PCI procedure. PCI also caused a significant and sustained decrease in serum Mg in PCI patients, without an effect on PAI-1. An increase in CK-MB was observed in PCI patients, although values were within normal reference range. In addition, elevated P-selectin and decreased Mg measured shortly after the coronary angioplasty procedure were associated with recurrent treatment and heart failure, respectively. Conclusions: Our study demonstrates that PCI induces temporal changes of P-selectin, Mg, and CK-MB, which may be involved in restenosis and ischemia-reperfusion injury. These findings highlight the need for using antiplatelet therapy and Mg to reduce the risks associated with PCI.
