- W2050951856 abstract "Aim: Previous studies have revealed that blockade of the renin angiotensin system attenuates plaque vulnerability and reduces cardiovascular events; however, few studies have compared the effects of an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) with an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) and evaluated combination therapy. The objective of this study was to compare the efficacy and mechanisms of plaque stabilization by ACEI or ARB and to determine the effects of combination therapy.Methods: Twenty-eight male Japanese white rabbits were fed a high-cholesterol diet after balloon injury of the carotid arteries, then separated into ACEI (n= 7; imidapril 0.5 mg/kg/day), ARB (n= 7; TA606 4.5 mg/kg/day), combination (n= 7; imidapril 0.5 mg/kg/day+TA606 4.5 mg/kg/day), and vehicle (n= 7) groups.Results: No difference in plaque volume was identified among the 4 groups. ACEI or ARB increased the thickness of the fibrous cap, collagen content and the number of smooth muscle cells in the intima (% smooth muscle cell in intima: ACEI, 36.3%; ARB, 36.4%; vehicle, 14.9%), and reduced the accumulation of macrophages (% macrophages in intima: ACEI, 20.1%; ARB, 24.0%; vehicle, 37.9%), suggesting the plaque-stabilizing effects of each drug. ACEI reduced matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 expression and gelatinolytic activity in the intima. While ARB did not change gelatinolytic activity, accumulation ot T cell in the intima was suppressed. Combination therapy did not show additive effects.Conclusion: These results suggest that ACEIs and ARBs have similar, but not additive, plaque-stabilizing effects. Each agent showed specific effects, with ACEIs decreasing gelatinolytic activity and ARBs suppressing T cell accumulation." @default.
