Rosuvastatin Prevents Conduit Artery Endothelial Dysfunction Induced by Ischemia and Reperfusion by a Cyclooxygenase-2–Dependent Mechanism
چکیده انگلیسی

ObjectivesThe purpose of this study was to determine whether single-dose rosuvastatin (40 mg) protects against ischemia and reperfusion (IR)–induced endothelial dysfunction in humans and whether this effect is cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 dependent.BackgroundAnimal studies have demonstrated that rosuvastatin can limit damage and improve recovery after IR.MethodsIn a double-blind, parallel design, 20 volunteers were randomized to a single dose of oral rosuvastatin (40 mg) or placebo. Twenty-four hours later, endothelium-dependent, flow-mediated dilation (FMD) of the radial artery was measured before and after IR (15 min of upper arm ischemia followed by 15 min of reperfusion). In a separate protocol, 18 volunteers received the COX-2 inhibitor celecoxib (200 mg orally twice daily) for 5 days. On day 4, subjects were randomized to single-dose rosuvastatin (40 mg) or placebo and 24 h later underwent the same protocol as described.ResultsPre-IR FMD was similar between groups (p = NS). IR significantly blunted FMD in the placebo group (FMD pre-IR: 6.4 ± 1.4%; FMD post-IR: 1.1 ± 3.8%, [p = 0.002]). Rosuvastatin prevented this impairment (FMD pre-IR: 7.5 ± 3.1%; FMD post-IR: 6.2 ± 3.9%, [p = NS] vs. rosuvastatin pre-IR, [p = 0.03] vs. placebo). Pre-treatment with celecoxib completely abolished rosuvastatin's protective effect (FMD pre-IR: 8.0 ± 2.2%; FMD post-IR: 1.4 ± 2.0%, [p < 0.001] compared with pre-IR, [p = NS] vs. placebo, [p = 0.002] vs. rosuvastatin alone).ConclusionsRosuvastatin pharmacologically prevents the development of IR-induced conduit artery endothelial dysfunction. This beneficial effect of rosuvastatin is mediated by a COX-2–dependent mechanism, evidence that may also provide potential mechanistic insight into the reported cardiotoxic effects of COX-2 inhibitors.
