Clinical Study on efficacy of allopurinol in patients with acute coronary syndrome and its functional mechanism

Allopurinol has a remarkable effect in the treatment of ACS and can improve the oxidative stress and inflammatory reaction indicators of patients. The protective mechanism of allopurinol might be achieved by suppressing the secretion and release of inflammatory mediators such as TNF-α, hs-CRP, OX-LDL and MDA while increasing levels of NO.
