Management of Statin Intolerant Patients in the Era of Novel Lipid Lowering Therapies: A Critical Approach in Clinical Practice - PubMed
Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36983444/
Statins are the cornerstone of lipid-lowering therapies effective for cardiovascular risk reduction. Although they are generally well tolerated, statin intolerance (SI) is frequent in clinical practice, and it is usually...
Relevance: In this review, we evaluated SI management focusing on non-statin lipid lowering therapies and their implications in lipid lowering approaches in clinical practice.
Interplay between microRNAs, Serum Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin/Kexin Type 9 (PCSK9), and Lipid Parameters in Patients with Very High Lipoprotein(a) Treated with PCSK9 Inhibitors - PubMed

The .gov means it's official. Federal government websites often end in .gov or .mil. Before sharing sensitive information, make sure you're on a federal government site. The site is secure....
Conclusions/Relevance: Our results support a role for miR-483-5p in regulating circulating PCSK9 in vivo. The difference in expression of miR-191-5p, miR-224-5p, and miR-337-3p between patients and control subjects suggests their possible role in the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease.

Conclusions: PCSK9i appear to be effective in reducing the risk of MACE and in improving lipid profiles of subjects with diabetes and dyslipidemia.
PCSK9 Inhibitors Reduce PCSK9 and Early Atherogenic Biomarkers in Stimulated Human Coronary Artery Endothelial Cells - PubMed
Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36982171/
Despite reports on the efficacy of proprotein convertase subtilisin-Kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitors as a potent lipid-lowering agent in various large-scale clinical trials, the anti-atherogenic properties of PCSK9 inhibitors in...
Conclusions/Relevance: The anti-atherogenic effects of evolocumab and alirocumab were contributed to by the downregulation of PCSK9, early atherogenesis biomarkers, and the significant inhibition of monocyte adhesion to the endothelial cells via the NF-ĸB and eNOS pathways. These suggest the beyond cholesterol-lowering beneficial effects of...
Investigation of the impact of rosuvastatin and telmisartan in doxorubicin-induced acute cardiotoxicity
Source : https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0753332222010629?via=ihub
Cardiac injury is the main dose-limiting factor for doxorubicin (Dox) use as an anticancer agent. The cardiotoxicity of Dox is linked to a number of c...
Conclusions/Relevance: This study points out the beneficial use of both rosuvastatin and telmisartan alone or in combination as a clinical option for decreasing the acute toxicity of Dox on cardiomyocytes.
