THE PARTICIPATION OF IMMUNE AND INFLAMMATORY MECHANISMSIN THE PATHOGENESIS OF CORONARY ATHEROSCLEROSIS

Abstract

It was revealed that in development of a coronary atherosclerosis, participate the immune-mediated mechanisms. In blood of patients with coronary atherosclerosis the maintenance of the basic classes cytokines (IL-1 β, IL-2, IL-6, IL-8, TNF-a) were increased. Development of acute coronary insufficiency is accompanied by additional increase of levels of the data cytokines. The accessory of the cytokine activity to a coronary atherosclerosis was confirmed at studying the maintenance mRNA cytokines in a vascular wall. Thus in a zone atheromatous (aorta) it was synthesized mainly mRNA IL-2, while in a zone lipomatosis (a beam radial artery) it is formed nonspecific immune reaction with development of the mRNA IL-1 and IL-6. For patients with rheumatoid arthritis typically more active defeat of a coronary arteries, in comparison with healthy persons. Chronic immune-mediated process in frameworks of the autoimmune pathology can serve a trigger for accelerated development ischemic heart disease. The General immune-inflammatory mechanisms which participate in pathogenesis of the ischemic heart disease and rheumatoid arthritis, allow to spend the certain parallels between atherosclerotic process and autoimmune pathology.
