Exploring the Effects of Antihypertensive and Lipid-Lowering Drugs on Inflammatory Cytokine Levels

Mendelian Randomization Analysis of Drug Targets: Exploring the Impact of Antihypertensive and Lipid-Lowering Therapies on Inflammatory Cytokines

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 3 Oct 2024

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This study investigates the causal relationships between antihypertensive and lipid-lowering drugs and inflammatory cytokines using a drug-targeted Mendelian randomization approach. By leveraging genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) data, the study evaluates the effects of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs), angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors, PCSK9 inhibitors, and NPC1L1 inhibitors on key inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1β, TNF-α, CRP, and MCP-1. The findings aim to provide insights into the prevention and control of excessive inflammatory responses, particularly in patients with hypertension and dyslipidemia, by assessing the causal effects of these therapies.
