description | This article aims to improve combined antihypertensive therapy on the basis of studying the antioxidant properties of bisoprolol and indapamid, their impact on endothelial dysfunction (ED) and pro-inflammatory cytokines activity in hypertensive patients with overweight and obesity. A combination of a β-blocker (BAB) with a diuretic (D) (bisoprolol 2.5, 5, 10 mg and indapamid 1.5–2.5 mg/day) was prescribed to 102 patients with essential hypertension of 1–3 grades, 30 to 65 years old (mean age – 54.54 ± 0.91 years), who previously had not been receiving regular antihypertensive therapy. The daily dose of bisoprolol was administered by continuous slow titration, starting with low doses of 1.25 mg/day. Of the patients 82 were women and 20 men, the duration of disease averaged 9.0 ± 0.71 years. The control group included 16 healthy subjects matched for age and sex. The level of stable terminal metabolites of nitric oxide NO (nitrite NO2– and nitrate NO3–), the concentration of S-nitrosothiol and NO-synthases (NOS), SOD, and catalase activity was determined biochemically. The contents of serum 8-iso-PgF2α (8-isoprostane), TNF-alpha and its type I soluble receptor (sTNF-αRI) were determined in all subjects using the “8-isoprostane ELISA” (Usbiological,USA), “ProCon TNFα” (ProteinContour,Russian Federation) and “sTNF-RI EASIA” (BioSource Europe SA,Belgium) ELISA kits, respectively. During the course of combined antihypertensive therapy we observed a significant decrease of S-nitrosothiols levels, i-NOS activity, reduction of TNF-α type I of its soluble receptor (sTNF-αRI), and oxidative stress marker – 8-iso-PgF2α in the examined patients. Nitrites and nitrates serum levels, activity of e-NOS, superoxide dismutase and catalase, by contrast, were increased in patients with hypertension and concomitant obesity. These changes may reflect the fact that against the background of the therapy there was a reduction in tension of oxidative stress, which leads to an improvement in endothelial function. Significant reduction ratio of TNF-α/sTNF-αRI shows suppression of autoimmune and apoptotic activity in patients under treatment. Thus, the improvement of endothelial function, a significant decrease in autoimmune activation due to lower tension of oxidative stress in the examined patients optimizes use of a combination of bisoprolol and indapamid for differentiated therapy in hypertensive patients with obesity. |
