概括
中心作用的ACE抑制剂 (cACEi) 和ARBs在全身性红斑狼 (SLE) 患者中没有对认知功能障碍产生保护作用. 需要进一步的随机试验来证实这些发现用于SLE-CD治疗.
科学领域:
- 类风湿病学 类风湿病学
- 神经科学是一个神经科学.
- 药理学 药理学是指药理学的学科.
背景情况:
- 认知功能障碍 (CD) 影响大约40%的系统性红斑狼 (SLE) 患者.
- 目前,对于与SLE相关的CD.目前还没有批准的药理疗法.
- 动物初步研究表明,向微质激活可能是有益的,具有中央作用的ACE抑制剂 (cACEi) 和血管激素受体抑制剂 (cARB) 的潜在作用.
研究的目的:
- 研究cACEi/cARBs使用与人类SLE队列认知功能之间的关联.
- 为了确定cACEi/cARB的使用是否与SLE相关的CD的发病率或严重程度降低有关.
主要方法:
- 300名SLE患者的队列在基线,6个月和12个月使用美国风湿病学学院的神经心理电池进行了评估.
- 认知功能与性别和年龄匹配的对照组进行了比较.
- 用通用线性混合建模来分析基于累积cACEi/cARB剂量 (作为相当于拉米普里尔剂量) 的CD几率.
主要成果:
- 在300名SLE患者中,有116名 (39%) 患有CD. 53名参与者 (18%) 接受了cACEi或cARBs的治疗.
- 累计的cACEi/cARB剂量没有被发现对SLE-CD有保护作用.
- 白人种族,当前就业和阿扎西奥普林累积剂量与CD的几率降低有关,而较高的疲劳严重程度评分与CD的几率增加相关.
结论:
- 在这个单中心的SLE队列中,cACEi/cARB的使用与认知功能障碍的不存在无关.
- 这项回顾性研究中的潜在混因素可能影响了结果.
- 需要进行随机对照试验,以确定cACEi/cARB是否可以作为SLE相关CD的治疗.

Heart Failure Drugs: Inhibitors of Renin-Angiotensin System
465
The activation of the sympathetic nervous system and the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) contributes to cardiac remodeling, and inhibiting the RAAS is a pharmacological target in heart failure management. As a result, neurohumoral modulation is a crucial treatment principle for managing heart failure. This approach involves using medications like ACE inhibitors (ACEIs), angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), β-blockers, mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs), and neutral...

Antihypertensive Drugs: Direct Renin Inhibitors
697
The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) is an intricate physiological pathway involving numerous enzymes and hormones, including renin, angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), angiotensin I and II, and aldosterone. Imbalances within this system increase the production of angiotensin II and aldosterone. Increased angiotensin II levels promote vasoconstriction and blood pressure elevation. Concurrently, higher aldosterone levels stimulate sodium and water reabsorption in the kidneys,...

Antihypertensive Drugs: Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Inhibitors
696
Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), a vital component of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, is abundant in lung endothelial cells. ACE converts the inactive decapeptide, angiotensin I, into the active octapeptide, angiotensin II. This potent vasoconstrictor narrows blood vessels, increasing resistance to blood flow and elevating blood pressure. Angiotensin II also stimulates aldosterone production, encouraging kidney cells to reabsorb more sodium and water from urine, thereby increasing...

Antihypertensive Drugs: Angiotensin II Receptor Blockers
786
In the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, a hormone called angiotensin II plays a crucial role. It binds to the AT1 receptors in vascular smooth muscles coupled with Gq proteins. The activation of these receptors activates an enzyme called phospholipase C, which releases two molecules: inositol trisphosphate and diacylglycerol. These molecules cause a chain reaction that leads to the phosphorylation of myosin light chains and promotes interaction between actin and myosin, leading to smooth...

Alzheimer's Disease: Treatment
219
Alzheimer's Disease (AD), a neurodegenerative disorder, is pathologically identified by amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles composed of tau protein. AD pharmacotherapy aims to manage cognitive symptoms, delay disease progression, and treat behavioral symptoms. The treatment is primarily symptomatic and palliative, with no definitive disease-modifying therapy available. Cholinesterase inhibitors, including donepezil (Aricept), rivastigmine (Exelon), and galantamine (Razadyne), are...

Cognitive Enhancers: Cholinesterase Inhibitors and NMDA Receptor Antagonists
159
Cognitive enhancers, also known as "smart drugs," are substances used to enhance memory, mental alertness, and concentration. These can be natural or synthetic and improve cognition in conditions like Alzheimer's disease (AD) and other neurodegenerative diseases. Some common examples include caffeine, amphetamines, methylphenidate, modafinil, arecoline, donepezil, vortioxetine, and piracetam. These enhancers work on the principle of synaptic plasticity and altered circuit function.
