背景:
- 動脈硬化性心血管疾患 (ASCVD) は,脂質不全,炎症,酸化ストレス,内皮機能不全によって引き起こされる世界的な健康上の大きな負担です.
- スタチンのような現在の治療には限界があり,残留心血管疾患に対する新しい多標的治療が必要です.
- 海洋由来ポリサッカライド (MDP) は,ASCVD病理学に関連する多様な生物活性を持っています.
研究 の 目的:
- ASCVDのMDPに関する臨床前および臨床的証拠を批判的に検討する.
- MDPの薬理学,作用機構,治療の可能性を調査する.
- 翻訳的な課題を特定し,MDPの臨床適用のための戦略を提案する.
主な方法:
- MDP (フコイドン,アルギナート,ラミナリン,キャラゲナン,キトザン) に関する既存の研究の包括的な文献検索と合成.
- 臨床前データ (in vitroおよび動物研究) と新興臨床的証拠の分析
- MDPの抗炎症,抗酸化,脂質調節,抗血栓,内皮保護効果の評価
主要な成果:
- MDPは,ASCVDに関連した有望な抗炎症,抗酸化,脂質低下,抗血栓性および内皮保護性を持っています.
- 臨床前データは治療の可能性を示唆しているが,臨床的証拠は限られている.
- 主な課題は,構造的変異性,口服での生物利用性の低下,ヒトでのデータ不足です.
結論:
- MDPは多目的の生物活性性があるため,ASCVDの予防と治療に有望な自然療法です.
- 標準化や生物学的利用性といった課題を 克服することは極めて重要です
- ASCVDに対するMDPの治療効果と安全性を検証するために,厳格でよく設計されたヒト臨床試験が必要である.

Management of atherosclerosis involves an integrated strategy encompassing pharmacological treatment, surgical interventions, lifestyle changes, and nutrition therapy to address the multifactorial nature of the disease.Pharmacological TherapyA cornerstone of atherosclerosis management is the use of pharmacological agents. Statins, such as atorvastatin, are pivotal in inhibiting HMG-CoA reductase, an enzyme that catalyzes an initial step in cholesterol synthesis in the liver. This reduction in...

Atherosclerosis I: Introduction
76
Atherosclerosis is a progressive disorder characterized by the buildup of plaques on the arterial inner wall, causing them to narrow and harden over time. These plaques comprise lipids, calcium, blood components, carbohydrates, and fibrous tissue. The process primarily affects the intima of large and medium-sized arteries, reducing blood flow in any artery.Etiology and risk factorsThe cause of atherosclerosis is multifactorial, involving a complex interplay among endothelial injury, lipid...

Polymers
36.9K
The word polymer is derived from the Greek words “poly” which means “many” and “mer” which means “parts”. Polymers are long chains of molecules composed of repeating units of smaller molecules, known as monomers. They either occur naturally, such as DNA and proteins, or can be constructed synthetically, like plastics. They have varied structural characteristics, such as linear chains, branched chains, or complex networks, that contribute to the...

Cardiovascular Drugs: Classification based on Therapeutic Indications
3.2K
Cardiovascular diseases, encompassing a range of conditions, can significantly affect the heart's operations and the overall circulatory system. These conditions impair the heart's ability to pump blood, leading to a deficit in oxygen supply to crucial organs. Anomalies in the heart's electrical system, known as arrhythmias, can cause heartbeats to accelerate or slow down. Usually, heart rates increase during physical activity and decrease while resting or sleeping. However,...

Antiplatelet drugs emerge as frontline defenders against the insidious threat of thromboembolic diseases, where abnormal clots obstruct vital blood vessels. These drugs stand as bulwarks, inhibiting platelet aggregation and clot formation, thereby mitigating the risk of life-threatening conditions like myocardial infarction, coronary artery disease, and thrombotic strokes.
