VF due to first STEMI was significantly associated with two up-regulated proteins (ACTBL2 and F13A1), suggesting that they may represent novel underlying molecular VF mechanisms. Further research is needed to determine whether these proteins are predictive biomarkers or acute phase response proteins to VF during acute ischemia.
