Receptor Blockers

This continuing feature will update readers on recent developments in cardiovascular pharmacotherapy. Cardiovascular disease remains the number one killer in the US, and more clinical outcome trials have been conducted in cardiology than in any other field of medicine. Given this rapidly expanding knowledge base, pharmacists can have a significant impact on the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular disease—if they keep current with developments in drug therapy.

Cardiovascular Continuum

The review presents data on the causes of dysregulation of calcium metabolism and its association with the main elements of the cardiovascular continuum. Particular attention was paid to its role in the regulation of endothelial function, systemic inflammation, myocardial contractility, lipid and carbohydrate metabolism, the disruption of which determines the initiation and progression of diseases such as essential hypertension and chronic heart failure. We also systematized data on the role and methods of calcium dysmetabolism correcting in the prevention and treatment of these pathologies.

Abstract Recently, we have read with great interest the article published by Ibarrola et al. (Clin. Sci. (Lond.) (2018) 132, 1471–1485), which used proteomics and immunodetection methods to show that Galectin-3 (Gal-3) down-regulated the antioxidant peroxiredoxin-4 (Prx-4) in cardiac fibroblasts. Authors concluded that ‘antioxidant activity of Prx-4 had been identified as a protein down-regulated by Gal-3. Moreover, Gal-3 induced a decrease in total antioxidant capacity which resulted in a consequent increase in peroxide levels and oxidative stress markers in cardiac fibroblasts.’ We would like to point out some results stated in the article that need further investigation and more detailed discussion to clarify certain factors involved in the protective role of Prx-4 in heart failure.
