ABSTRACT
Objective:
To investigate the effect of different doses of perindopril on peripheral endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) and vascular endothelial function in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) .Methods:
A total of 84 CAD patients with coronary angiography confirmed diagnosis were divided into 3 groups Control group, the patients received routine medication, n=27. Low-dose group, the patients received routine medication with perindopril for 4mg, n=29. High-dose group, the patients received routine medication with perindopril for 8mg, n=28. All patients were treated for 12 weeks. The EPCs level was detected by flow cytometry assay, flow-mediated-dilation (FMD) function in brachial artery was measured by ultrasound and plasma levels of high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), angiotensin II (AngII) were examined in all groups.Results:
① After12 weeks of treatment, the EPCs level and FMD function had certain improvement, hs-CRP level decreased in various degrees in all 3 groups, P group showed increased EPCs level and FMD function, decreased levels of hs-CRP and AgnII, PConclusion:
Perindopril may mobilize peripheral EPCs at certain point, and therefore improve endothelial function, the higher dose of perindopril may have better effect.
