Neointimal hyperplasia plays a crucial role in restenosis after stenting. The severity of neointimal thickness correlates with inflammatory reactions in the injured vessel and statins can inhibit inflammation. Pitavastatin has favorable effects on plasma lipoproteins and inflammation. Thus, we hypothesized that pitavastatin might inhibit the early inflammatory response, resulting in prevention of...
Myeloperoxidase (MPO), an antimicrobial enzyme of the innate immune system, has been proposed to exert a wide array of pro-atherogenic effects throughout all stages of the atherosclerotic process. In view of the potent anti-inflammatory effects of statins in vitro, we evaluated the impact of statin therapy on plasma MPO levels in patients with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (FH), treated...
