Caspase 3/7 inhibition reduced MΦMP release by 52% (P less then 0.01) and caspase 3/7 activation increased MΦMP production by 208% (P less then 0.01). Mevastatin pretreatment (10 µM) decreased oxLDL-induced caspase 3/7 activation and attenuated oxLDL-stimulated MΦMP production and tissue factor content by 60% (P less then 0.01) and 43% (P less then 0.05), respectively. Conclusions OxLDL induces the production of prothrombotic microparticles in macrophages. This process depends on caspases 3 and 7 and CD36 and is inhibited by mevastatin pretreatment. These findings link atherogenic signaling pathways, inflammation, and plaque thrombogenicity and identify a novel potential mechanism for antithrombotic effects of statins independent of LDL lowering.Background In adults with heart failure, elevated heart rate is associated with lower survival. We determined whether an elevated heart rate was associated with an increased risk of death or heart transplant in children with dilated cardiomyopathy. Methods and Results The study is an analysis of the Pediatric Cardiomyopathy Registry and includes baseline data, annual follow-up, and censoring events (transplant or death) in 557 children (51% male, median age 1.8 years) with dilated cardiomyopathy diagnosed between 1994 and 2011. An elevated heart rate was defined as 2 or more SDs above the mean heart rate of children, adjusted for age. The primary outcomes were heart transplant and death. Heart rate was elevated in 192 children (34%), who were older (median age, 2.3 versus 0.9 years; P less then 0.001), more likely to have heart failure symptoms (83% versus 67%; P less then 0.001), had worse ventricular function (median fractional shortening z score, -9.7 versus -9.1; P=0.02), and were more often receiving anticongestive therapies (96% versus 86%; P less
