Metoprolol Reduces Proinflammatory Cytokines and Atherosclerosis in ApoE−/− Mice
A few studies in animals and humans suggest that metoprolol (β1-selective adrenoceptor antagonist) may have a direct antiatherosclerotic effect. However, the mechanism behind this protective effect has not been established. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of metoprolol on development of atherosclerosis in ApoE(-/-) mice and investigate its effect on the release of proinf...
متن کاملTargeting sortilin in immune cells reduces proinflammatory cytokines and atherosclerosis.
Genome-wide association studies have identified a link between genetic variation at the human chromosomal locus 1p13.3 and coronary artery disease. The gene encoding sortilin (SORT1) has been implicated as the causative gene within the locus, as sortilin regulates hepatic lipoprotein metabolism. Here we demonstrated that sortilin also directly affects atherogenesis, independent of its regulator...
متن کاملPTEN reduces cuff-induced neointima formation and proinflammatory cytokines.
An inflammatory response followed by vascular injury plays an important role in neointima formation and development of atherosclerotic lesions, which are in part mediated by proinflammatory cytokines. Using a cuff injury model, we examined the effects of adenovirus-mediated overexpression of phosphatase and tensin homology deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN) on neointima formation and the proinflam...
متن کاملProinflammatory Cytokines in Peritonitis
RATIONALE We performed this study with the purpose of revealing different aspects of the systemic inflammatory response syndrome in peritonitis. OBJECTIVES The aim of the presentation was to make a research on some of the immune response mediators in secondary peritonitis and to observe their capacity to anticipate the evolution towards septic complications. METHODS AND RESULTS We have unde...
متن کاملAerobic exercise training reduces inflammatory markers involved in atherosclerosis
Introduction: Adipose tissue and inflammatory factors play important role in occurrence of atherosclerosis in overweight women. The present study aimed to investigate the effect of 8 weeks of aerobic exercise training on risk factors involved in atherosclerosis in overweight women. Materials and methods: For this, fourteen overweight women (mean ± standard deviation: body mass index 28....
