IL6 and myocardial infarction: To further explore the relationship between MAP3K3 and the severity of MI/RI, we assessed the relationship between MAP3K3 expression level in neutrophils and monocytes of MI/RI patients and serum cardiac markers 36, 37, including CK-MB (creatine kinase M-type), cTnT (cardiac troponin T), LDH (lactate dehydrogenase), pro-BNP (pro B-type natriuretic peptide), CRP (C-reactive protein), IL-6 (interleukin-6), and complete blood count.
