Influence of simvastatin on immunological parameters in patients with a metabolic syndrome in a combination to auricules fibrillation
Abstract
60 men with metabolic syndrome in combination with paroxizmal atrial fibrillation were investigated to estimate the influence of simvastatin (simvastol) on the parameters of matrix metalloproteinase-9 and its antagonist – tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase-1. In all patients the serum level of matrix metalloproteinase-9 and tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase-1was studied by immunoassay method. The significant decrease of matrix metalloproteinase-9 activity (P=0,043) and increase of the tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase-1 activity (P=0,018) after simvastol therapy were revealed. Thus, the addition of simvastatin (simvastol) to usual therapy in patients with metabolic syndrome in combination with paroxizmal atrial fibrillation is useful with the pathogenetic position.
